I'm very disappointed at the rate of the delay. Noone has seen the car part as delivered late.. The recipient had already left when the part was delivered. She is in Africa as I speak and no idea what or where the part is

I purchased a gearbox from Bradford Auto Breaker Ltd. which was advertised and confirmed as the MVT model. My mechanic has now installed it, but unfortunately it is not the correct model. The gearbox is not the MVT model as described. The installation alone cost me £500, and I am concerned that removing the gearbox will incur significant further costs. This situation is very difficult for me, as I bought the gearbox on the understanding that it was the correct MVT model, which Bradford Auto Breaker Ltd have confirmed.

I cannot fault the 1st Choice platform, but I can fault the suppliers on the platform. Dealing with MGS AUTOMOTIVE LTD was an unpleasant experience. Initially, I was told the part was in the UK, then after challenging this statement, they admitted the part was coming from Spain, but do not be concerned as "we have a fasttrack courier who can get it into the country in 3 days". I agreed and paid for the part. After 2 weeks (10 working days) not hearing from them, I enquired about the delivery of the part, only to be told it has been "stuck in customs". After a further week, I enquired again, only to be told the part arrived damaged and therefore they cannot supply the part and I will be refunded. The only highlight of this experience was that I was refunded, the 1-star review is for the unpleasant experience and the waste of my time and leaving me without a car for 3 weeks due to their incompetence.

I was sent the wrong window regulator (£72) by a 1st choice supplier. As my garage could not fit it (after removing the broken part) I have £79 extra cost to put the window back again as I needed the car. Although I got a refund for the 1st choice part, I could not get any compensation from them for the garage cost....

Part was ordered and paid for but subsequently cancelled same day due to incorrect part advertised by dismantlers. However, the cost was still deducted from my bank. After numerous requests for a refund and no response from 1st choice 12 days ago. My bank is now chasing refund. I would not use 1st choice again.. beware. !!

They tell you the part is not available after you make payment. Refund is another hurdle to cross. They are time wasters.

29th of July paid for a replacement 2015 engine, The delivery was initially promised within 3–5 working days, but the item did not arrive until more than a week later. Upon delivery to my garage, it was confirmed that the engine was not the correct model. Specifically, it was a 2012 engine, and several parts and the engine code did not match my vehicle’s specifications. As a result, my mechanic advised that I return the engine. I contacted Vauxhall Spares Ltd multiple times to discuss the matter. During these calls, I was treated rudely by various staff members. Despite forwarding a detailed report from my garage and requesting either a correct replacement or a full refund, I have no response. Since then, I have made several follow-up calls to the company, during which I have continued to experience unprofessional and dismissive behavior. I have repeatedly been told I would receive a call back from either the manager or an engineer—yet no one has contacted me.
