Car Spares
Hi all,
I know I have not posted recently (Naughty me!) but I have a job now (yay!). It's only at Mitre 10, but it pays the bills while I look for one in my profession.
Anywho, I had to buy a car so I got a Hyundai Lantra 1996 model. Bit of an old banger I know (Had a pre-purchase inspection done, so knew of a few "issues"), and now I have a job I am looking to repair the known faults. I have found a shop where I can get mechanical parts from for a reasonable price (I can do the basic repairs myself to save costs - phew!), but they don't do interior or bodywork. Does anybody know where I can get interior or bodywork parts from?
I live in Auckland.
Thanks!
Oh also, I am pretty sure it is going to need a major service soonish (It has developed a few "interesting" noises that concern me) so does anybody have any idea of an approximate price for one of these?
Thanks again.
