Default Land rover parts from England

Like myself, a lot of you probably think about ordering parts from England. The prices are so much better. Anyway I did, and i'm putting this up to let you know it's easy and "YES" the price is way better. I ordered springs, drive shaft spacers and a new tail light from a place called Foundry4x4 in England. The entire order with shipping and duties was $397.00 (CAD). that was shipped to Vancouver BC Canada.

4 2" lift heavy duty springs from Britparts
2 driveshaft spacers with bolts
1 new bumper tail light.

shipping was about $80.00 and the duties was $37.00

They shipped from England to Vancouver in 4 days.

Very imprerssed.

and if it is like the states you will most likely receive a bill from your customs for the value of the items a month down the road. I did a simular deal with 4x4 and after paying their price. I still got a seperate bill from US customs for the value a month later. Canada may be different than the states though.

I don't think (for stuff shipped to the US) you are supposed to pay VAT. They probably just didn't know how to ring it up any other way.

rotors look cheap, but after the heavy shipment charge and the tax and the currency exchange its easier to get them here in the states.
