Where to buy used car parts in Europe?

Hey All,

So I'm trying to find a LHD van seat for my Toyota Proace and struggling to find a decent one online.

Does anyone know of a decent Ebay like pan-european site which allows you to browse lots of breakers to find parts across the EU, who will then deliver to the UK?

I know this is the kind of topic where single track will excel!

Ebay 😁

 

I did actually come across one recently that worked a bit like My Builder, Checkatrade etc, ie you list what part you're after and it gets sent to a bunch of breakers, who then contact you if they have it (rather than the breakers listing online all parts they have, which I suspect very few do). The only bite I got was a stupid expensive price, plus I can't actually remember what the site is called, making this an extremely unhelpful post. Sorry.

Was it parts gateway?  Might be worth a go OP.

I've used https://ovoko.fr/ before.  Worked nicely.  The same parts often appear on other sites so once you have it try downloading the photo and doing a google reverse image search to see if you can find it at a better price.  e.g. I actually used https://rrr.lt/en rather than Ovoko or a Belgian supplier who all had the identical mirror

Is it a newer, post 2018 Pro-Ace ? as it's the same Stellantis van as Pug, Citroen and Vauxhall (and a few fiats).

Rrr.lt - searchable by vehicle, part number, part category, et cetera. Shipping and import tax might be killer for you now, though.

eBay has always been great for me and I see lots of European parts on sale.  Usually from Lithuania.

If you can find someone willing to do the paperwork. The other way UK companies have completely lost interest in sending stuff to me in France. Tack for Madame Edukator's horse "sorry we no longer sell to Europe".
