“Derby Spares were very good. Clerical faults (I think by First Choice rather than Derby Spares) led to delayed delivery which was disappointing and made me nervous. It is very important to spell out names and addresses I think! On the whole, very good though.”
“i recently searched for a heater matrix for my iveco daily being an older vehicle iveco no longer supplied them but luckily they provided the relevant info to source it. had 3 quotes though of a concern of excess delivery charges how ever i managed to get one inc delivery for less than £40.00 how ever royal mail didnt help the cause when it took them just over a week to supply will use for future reference”
“Ordered a space saver wheel for my car it fits but was advised that it is not suitable for the car by a local tyre company due to it being too small. I explored what size to use on the Internet at first but should have sought advice from the tyre company first lesson learned.”
“Hi was very easy to use so not only 1st Choice you are 1st Class thanks for everything if I ever need anything else for my car you will definitely be my 1st Choice Thanks again Gary”
“1st Choice Spares offer a great service to avoid excessive costs on parts for older cars. In my case, it was an alloy wheel for a Range Rover Sport. Finding the part was easy and quick, and the response of the specific breaker for the part was great. The only reason for not giving a 5-star review was the courier/logistics of delivery. The service paid for was a next-day delivery but it was the 3rd day before the wheel was delivered. The issue was with the courier process.”
“Hi it worked very well but wasn,t correct mirror for my year c max but fitted but mirror is smaller off 2008 mine is 2009 titanium changed mirror on 2009/10 models”
“The transaction to get the spare part we needed was easy. The problem was with the courier.
The package was left at a nearby house, signed for by "Michael". Odd, as that house has been empty for weeks. The package was left on the front doorstep of the house for 24 hours on a busy road. Luckily it was still there when 1st choice directed me to the nearby address. Courier obviously couldn't be bothered to locate the proper address and abandoned the parcel on a doorstep. I wonder who Michael is ???”
“Bought a used engine which was delivered and fitted and all was good.only criticism was I wasn’t told that they would require the old engine returned to them or I would get charged 50% surcharge until after I’d paid for it.also if I didn’t put a new timing chain on it the warranty would be void.this is all fine but I should have been informed of this before I paid”
“I was looking for a gearbox for my Land Rover Freelander. There were many offered for sale, but what swayed me to buy the one I did, was the fact it had approx mileage and a 6 months guarentee, where the others only had 3 months and no mileage.”
“Response to (worldwide) search for a rare car part was excellent with 3 options available. The part is yet to be fitted so 5 stars not awarded, yet; (fingers crossed it works OK). Delivery was within advised timeline despite distance (UK to AUS). One disappointing aspect was the increase in the quoted price of the part which went up by 30 pounds sterling or just over 21.5%. Nevertheless, happy that the long search is over.”
“The part arrived very quickly and was the correct part for the car however the lettering on the part was for different engine size ,luckily this could be removed easily otherwise potentially could have been costly mistake”
“1st Choice run an efficient service - through them i have been able to source a very rare ABS pump for a 14 year old car so I'm a happy customer - Well done !!”
