Spares prices

Car wouldn't start this morning (2.0 TD Nissan Primera). Luckily my insurance includes free RAC homestart so within 40 minutes of making the phone call it was up and runing again. Turns out to be duff glow plugs. My attempts to get it going with Easystart didn't work becasue of the length of the inlet pipework plus the turbo. You have to take the pipe off as close to the turbo as possible and then spray.
Anyhow, i get on the phone and start ringing around for glow plugs.
Nissan wanted £38 plus vat each (two days delivery)! .
Partco in Chesterfield did the same things for £12 each (3.30pm the same day)

Rant over.
