Title: VX parts prices up due to VX takeover
Post by: grifter on 23 January 2018, 21:23:22: Just been ordering parts from autovaux, parts that I'd been quoted for a couple of weeks ago, they told me the parts price had went up due to the VX takeover by Spewgeot! Beware if you are thinking of buying anything the price quoted might go up. Not be long till they start discontinuing all the old parts still available.

Glad I own a pre-spewgeot vx!

Got quite a lot of parts off of them it is usually only GM parts anyway, I generally don't buy aftermarket stuff from them as I can get that anywhere.

Parts will increase in price, mostly due to concurrency fluctuations.
