Hi, was browsing the Scandcar, Netherlands, on line catalogue looking for plastic trim anchorages for 144. They were listed at €0.50 each. I keyed in 48 and the price came out at €24.50. proceded to checkout and postage 2700gms came to €41!!
total €77. I canceled my order. Are they screwing us on postage? Holland to Portugal.
Has anybody used this company, are they reliable?
How about VP autoparts, Sweden?
BTW, whenever I click on the VP email link my laptop goes haywire, tabs scrolling accross the top. I'm useing firefox

Scandcar is a long established firm, but I believe they recently refurbished the webshop. Send them an email, postage should be around 15 euro.

The clips for interior panels can also be scavenged from 240's by the way.

It seems as though the email links to VP autoparts have not been properly installed so I am unable to contact them on line. Does anybody have an email address for them?
