Euro car parts have a discount promo code splashed all over the net if you look and you will get 25% off which will make it cheap but not sure on their quality. I tend to go for genuine with these as I know the quality will be there.

Try carparts4less.co.uk - its eurocarparts but without the shop fronts so are cheaper.

I don't mind buying the genuine parts from Pug dealer as have used eurocarparts for the last 206 I owned about 4 years ago - but they didn't last long.
So I guess my question is - what price approx do Pug dealers charge and is it worth the difference?
Anyone recomend OE quality manurfacturer if I go via a motorfactors?

Eurocarparts/carparts4less sell lemforder wishbones and drop links which are often considered o.e. quality.
Just noticed eurocarparts have a 25% off offer so with lemforder drop links and a pair of wishbones comes to £240.60 but then the 25% off knocks it down to £188.44
Carparts4less for the same comes to £188.60 (would be considerably cheaper if eurocarparts didnt have an offer on)
Peugeot drop links and wishbones come to £306.38

i normally get it directly from france, work out to be cheaper as usual.
only cost 135 GBP per pair +p&p (which is dirt cheap and is DHL so it will arrived within 2 days, last time it cost me 15 euro+vat)

Yeah - think the answer might be the Lemforder ones from EuroCarParts.
Just had a look on there site and @ £188.44 seems cracking value.
Many thanks Richpowell91 + everyone else for quick replies.
Respect to the 206info community.

I just paid 89 quid for a genuine Peugeot wishbone from the dealer for my 180, that was without the VAT, was around 102 with VAT.
