deebo Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 does anyone know of a good independent citroen specialist in the east sussex area. when i lived in cambridge i managed to find a great garage that knew exactly what they were doing and were half the price of my local dealer. while i dont mind going to small garages for services and mots, i need to replace my spheres and dont trust anyone but a specialist. my local dealer, (tates of brighton), want £578 to replace all 5 spheres on my xantia 1.9td estate, and £250 even if i supply the spheres myself! i managed to find a place that will supply and fit for less than £200, but this would require a trip to manchester! can anyone help me avoid a 600 mile round trip?

billywhizz40 Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 There is a Citroen specialist in Worthing called Tin Snail Company near Worthing station, they may be able to help. Quote
deebo Posted May 2, 2006 Author Posted May 2, 2006 thanks for that. i bought the spheres (6) online for £165 from www.buypartsby.com, and am awaiting delivery. and tin snail are going to fit them next week for the princely sum of £50! thats £200 cheaper than the main dealer. so far so good. Quote
Johndouglas Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 Small comfort now - but had you used [url="http://www.gsfcarparts.com"]http://www.gsfcarparts.com[/url] you would have got all six spheres for less than £140 with free carriage. Also they have a branch in Worthing. Quote
