Is there a better deal?
« on: 18 March 2014, 14:59:15 »

Carpartssaver are currently offering 5 litres of Dexron III ATF for £18.89, inclusive of VAT and delivery (ebay item No. 290994733693).
Ever willing to save my pension pennies, I am wondering if this is the best deal around, or does anyone know of a better one?
I don't have trade Club, nor do I know how to get one or of any dealers locally who operate the scheme, so for me it's basically retail only.

Time to show my woeful ignorance again!
Thanks for the reply; now for the ignorant bit.....
What is/are ABS and how do I join Trade Club - do I need to be in the trade, because I'm not?
How much does ATF cost from them?
Underwoods have a branch in Tiptree, which is nearer to me by at least a gallon, so do you know if they are also part of the scheme?

ATF is a club, a bit like OOF but with an annual fee (£25 IIRC), but they give you access to Tradeclub (http://www.tradeclub.co.uk)

Not all branches participate in tradeclub, due to requirements each individual branch needs to fulfil.

ATF is not economical on tradeclub, but other service parts are. Defo worth the £25 to ABS :y

  I dont know if Underwoods Tiptree isdoing trade club there Ron. Colchester is the main branch. Tiptree is only 4 miles for me as well. Could be worth phoning Tiptree and asking
