[Matt2107]

So called Sillicooooooooon blue performance, spark like the national grid, leads are cheaper than that lol

[mickymoose]

i run a motor factor mate and they are around ?14 so something is seriously amiss there

Genuine GM parts are always expensive unless you can get them trade (ie ?1.70 for a oilfilter, 4.95 to the general public)

[draper]

thats right for the leads, a little cheap aswell as iirc my local vaux wanted ?115 + VAT for a set !!

[simon_p]

i can't understand where dealers get prices from some times

i paid ?17 for some comma oil, yet when i went for sideskirt clips i noticed gm oil was ?11! shocking!

[Jack]

Thats cheap for a dealer set, thought that would be per lead lol

Dealer parts are always ??? as thats where they make the most of their money (servicing, parts, warranties etc). If you bought every part required to build a Nova from the dealer (theorising that they were all still available), you'd probably end up paying considerably more than the retail price for the whole car!

GM oil is supposed to be pretty good though isn't it? Especially considering its price.

[chimp007_uk]

i bought a set of magnecor 10mm leads for the manta and they were only ?70 lol

[vallanc3]

gm oil is good for the price. used to use it all the time at the garage i used to work at
