I stupidly bought the single tool from Autodoc then looked at that whole kit on Amazon. They're about the same price.  :fighting2:

£8.45 postage from Autodoc.  :scared:

I asked my local garage for their TPS account no.  :evilgrin: and I’ve been using it ever since.

Maybe worth asking a local garage around you for theirs. Or get a garage to order parts if they won’t give you their acc no.

TPS account discount is dependant on how much you buy month on month - this suggestion is not that daft as it adds to the garages sales figure.

I have been using my local TPS for years. They have even given me an account number to use, not that I plan to make a habit, but I can still actually ruck up without calling in the order before.

For service stuff I buy Quantum Platinum oil by the cube, works out (iirc) around £26 for 20L from TPS

Edit: Forgot to mention one anomaly with TPS is they can't sell special tools, that is dealer only and then its their discretion.

Just to update the info regarding RPS Online - this is now run buy Seat Listers in Coventry. I ordered genuine front wings from them and had been dealing with the parts manager directly - Adrian Collison who was really helpful and did a really good deal on the front wings for me. You can reach contact Adrian directly on 02476 456700 or email adrian.collison@listers.co.uk.

Hope this helps

Anyone used this outfit before? https://www.buycarparts.co.uk

Legit?  Seems like it's another one of those 'Meat and Doria' autodoc type companies.  I'm really paranoid about cheap parts being Chinese knock-offs these days  :grin:

They looked like the same company to me when I’ve looked at parts.
I usually just go for Mann stuff from carparts4less or euro whichever is cheaper at the time.
Quantum 20l oil cubes on eBay seem to be reasonable value.

Thanks mate, I'll give them a whirl.  ECP/CP4L don't sell the part I need unfortunately.  It's a shaft seal that costs a bomb from VW but Victor Reinz or Elring are both good, which buycarparts sell.
