And also some more exotic car brands, which are seen on the roads more rarely, such as Jeep, Mini, Porsche, Land Rover, Lexus, Jaguar, Maserati and many others. Even if you drive a Ferrari, Lotus or Tesla, you might find the right spare parts with our help. Depending on the current availability, of course.

And that is not nearly all we offer. Our impressive database of reserve parts for cars for personal use is complemented by parts for cars for commercial or industrial use. Yep, you can find all types of vehicle parts at usedspareparts.com. Coupe, sedan, SUV, hatchback, roadster, pickup, van, campervan, minivan, truck replacement parts – you name it!

It is also worth mentioning that we don’t offer just big and often sought parts such as engines, windshields, doors or transmissions. Our database includes all parts, even smaller ones that are usually extremely difficult to find.

Our Partners

Our vast database of used and new auto parts is based on our wide partner net. The parts we offer are supplied by various new part vendors, domestic and foreign car dumps, and various small and big automobile repair shops. Our services have become well-known in our area in the last years, so car dumps and car part dealers now contact us themselves in search for a good partnership. All this doesn’t make just our database big, but also brings very competitive prices. If you are searching for cheap spare parts, you have definitely come to the right place.

We mentioned parts from car dumps above. How do you feel about using a part from a car dump? Do you have some concerns or reservations about it? Some people do, but this is totally unnecessary. You need to know that car dumps host cars that have been left there because they are not in running order anymore. But here is the catch: they don’t run for a particular reason, with the majority of their parts still working perfectly. It would be a real shame not to use these parts. And not only because you can save a lot of money with them, but also because this is also the most ecologically-conscious choice. Using working car parts that others have left behind means less burden for the environment. First by clearing up space in car dumps. And second by decreasing the need for new production.

As already mentioned, our partners include various repair shops. Which don’t only supply some parts for us, but can also install the chosen part into your car. And what if your chosen part is huge and thus very inconvenient for transportation to the repair shop? Don’t worry about it – we can arrange transportation to your chosen repair shop, so you don’t need to waste your time and energy on it. Alternatively, you can also pick up the part yourself at our storages whenever it suits you best.

How To Find Car Parts on Usedspareparts.com

Okay then. We have already established that we offer a huge database of reserve car parts. But how can you actually find the part you need on our site?

The first step is entering the needed part into our search box on the top of the page. You can enter the original catalogue part number (if you know it) to immediately get a list of suitable parts. If you don’t know the part number, you can also enter your car’s chassis number (also known as VIN). This will show you all matching cars, letting you browse through them to find the right part.

Or you can simply enter a word search. You can search by general terms describing your car. For example, by entering “Renault Clio”. Or you can search for a specific part of your car, for example “suspension Opel Meriva 1.6”. This will show all the cars with this part, plus separate parts that are available.

Once the results are shown, take your time to browse them, then click on the picture or the name of the chosen part or car. The price will be clearly shown in the list of search results already. The price can be determined or negotiable. After you click on the chosen search result, you will get to all the details of the car or part, including (when available):

  • Brand
  • Model
  • Expanded model
  • Engine
  • Transmission
  • Year
  • Mileage
  • Quality
  • Color
  • Installment side
  • Category
  • Catalogue part number

If the part fits your wishes, it is time for the second step – fill in the inquiry form. Insert your name and surname, e-mail, phone number (not required), and your message. You can always also contact us by phone with any additional questions, and we will be glad to help you with whatever you need.

We will then contact you as soon as possible regarding the availability of the chosen part. And the price if it was set to negotiable.

And the last step – delivering the part to the desired address. Or, as already mentioned above, you can also pick it up yourself if this suits you better.

Simple and efficient.

But let’s go through it one more time with a random example, just to be sure. Let’s say that you are searching for an engine with the size of 1.6 for your Renault Megane 2011. Enter “renault megane” into the search box to get all the Renault Megane cars and all the parts connected with this car. You can narrow the search by entering “engine Renault Megane 1.6 2011”. This search will also return all the suitable separate engines and all cars that offer this engine. Clicking on the selected result will open a contact form, where you can enter your personal information and your message. Then simply wait to get a call or an e-mail from us to arrange all the details.

Choosing a New or a Used Spare Part

Many car owners face this dilemma every time their car needs a replacement part. The decision comes down to 3 major factors: age/value of the car, price of the needed part and the urgency of part replacement.

With newer cars, which are only a few years old, drivers choose both new and used parts. The latter usually when they want to save some money. With older cars the decision is usually much simpler as the investment into new parts is just not rational due to the low value of the car.

The value of the part itself is also an important factor. When searching for big, essential parts of the car (such as the engine, for example), the prices of used parts can be several hundred euros lower. When dealing with smaller parts, this difference can be just a few euros or tens of euros, so you just need make a decision that suits your current needs. If your finances permit it, of course.

It is also important how urgently you need the spare part installed. If you can’t drive your car without the new part (and don’t have another car available), it is often better to search for used parts, since you need to wait for original new parts to arrive to your dealership. But sometimes new parts are already in stock, so searching for used parts can take longer…

In the end, the choice is mostly financial with used spare parts being much cheaper.

You might also be wondering if it is better to buy spare parts (new or used) on your own and deliver them to your chosen mechanic or just leave the search and purchase to the mechanic. It all depends on your chosen mechanic, his ability to search for parts and his commission for this service. If your goal is to save money, then the safest choice is definitely to search and buy the parts your need yourself.
