VX parts prices up due to VX takeover
« 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!

That company doesn't half talk some ......, practically nothing they sell is a genuine part (N on the end of the part number) so VX not being part of GM is going to make no difference at all.

Autovaux are a bloody awful company,  general advise is avoid them as they talk complete BS and don’t send you genuine parts.

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.

I wouldn't believe a word Autovaux say

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

They managed to get me the longer pins for holding the rear brake pads in on my MV6 which GM dealers don't stock.
