Search for Steve Manley on here. He works for Toyota in an Oxfordshire dealership and 'might' be able to get you cheaper parts. He is at least very knowledgeable and I know the rarer parts come from a warehouse in Europe so shipping might not be so bad. Worth a call/email.

Yep, Toyota's European distribution centre is actually in Belgium somewhere. Try your local toyota dealer and ask for owners club discount once you have paid your membership here and received a membership number etc. if you have a long list, you might just be surprised how much they can knock off.

I emailed an order for parts to Steve a little over a week ago and it got bounced back as no such user so I don't know if he has moved on. Anyway I contacted another parts supplier who gave good service and am asking them if they would be interested in offering a club discount of 15% to match the Inchcape deal. If they say yes I'll post up the details and say what I found better than my dealings with Steve/Inchcape on previous orders.

If you aren't in a hurry for parts and they are big capital items amongst them then you should look at buying from a Toyota parts distributor in the US. I did this recently for a crank pulley and saved £60 over buying at the 15% discounted price from Inchcape Toyota (effectively a 35% discount over the standard Toyota UK price). The only difference was it took 10 days to arrive rather than 2 and the import duty has to be paid before the package is delivered.

 

As a rule of thumb, you probably need to spend over Euro400 to make the wait worthwhile and absorb the shipping costs if bringing in parts from the US. As a second rule of thumb, if you start off with an order exceeding $1000 you can usually get a good new customer discount from US suppliers.
