Honda parts online?

Pete67

Hi all,

Has anyone used boats.net to source Honda engine parts? They have a huge selection and pricing seems reasonable even factoring in delivery and VAT (they are US based). I would be concerned that delivery would be quite slow though.

Does anyone have a suggestion for an similar supplier based in the EU?

many thanks!

Have you tried Marine parts http://marineparts.ie/ they can get in most parts and will post.
Buying from the US can be doggy as you often get caught for vat and have to pay the postman on anything over €20.

Thanks Fergal,

I will check that out. I've just found Ling Honda in the UK and their prices are almost exactly twice the US prices for the same items. Even after paying the VAT ordering from the US would work out a lot cheaper.

Thanks, I've ordered a few bits and pieces, mainly gasket sets, will see how it goes.
