compleatly pointless thread i know but i just had the shock of my life......... i needed some new ht leads for my 340... 15-20 squid on ebay...... as i didnt have time to wait for delivery and my local spares shop was for some reason closed... i went to halfords and nearly collapsed when the guy told me the price was only £12!! ......wtf?

i know they have some kind of sale on at the moment but their sales usualy mean that their stuff is reduced from extortionate to just expensive..... realy confused:S

High supply, low demand I expect. Can get lucky in halfords from time to time...

aparently so... ive heard that before but as it had never happened to me i figured it was a myth.

Get yourself a trade card gets a huge discount i got window wipers for my car were £18 for £4.99 was well impressed

Or has a mate that works for them lol. Mines saved me loads! I blag trade discount in Andrew Page (motorfactors) with it too.

my dad lost his and found it months later so i got it cant beat abit discount lol

Car parts from Halfords are cheap with the trade card, they barely keep any parts in stock any more though. They've recently stopped selling rotor arms and distributor caps. They also stock the worlds most useless range of alternator belts, I've never actually managed to buy a belt off them even for common everyday cars like the Clio.

i second that not that i couldnt get one but when i got it home didnt fit got a filter for my 1996 mini aswel it is exactly on the change date for the minis so got the earlier one that was wrong so got the newer one also wrong there not the best but ok for oil and stuff
