Are we OOfers missing a trick by not buying parts off German Ebay?
I know some members get Irmscher parts off German Ebay but what about run of the mill stuff.? Two things that I find a bit irritating about Ebay uk are:
1. A lot of sellers aren't prepared to send abroad
2. The Elite model seems to not be catered for very well. e.g. Springs, air shock absorbers.
Of course a big stumbling block is not being able to search effectively in German despite being able to converse a bit in the lingo. So my question is has anyone found a decent seller of Omega bits on the German site? What are self levelling shock absorbers in German? What is the equivalent Saloon elite model there? Caravan or is that the estate?

This made me think (for a change!

), as when I have purchased parts for Carlton's, Senator and Omega's, from a Vx dealer they have originated in Germany anyway. Some have been specially flown in to meet my order at the time. 8-)

I think buying parts from Germany would be a good idea

, cutting out the middleman, if the prices reflect savings that are worthwhile, language barriers do not cause problems and the Euro / £ exchange rate does not kybosch the whole amount to be saved on the bottom line.
I am waiting for other members comments on this that's for sure!
