Who is the best Porsche parts dealer in Europe
for euro members if you know anyone please let me know. I have a long shopping list for my boxster. we have two major dealers in paris and the price is always crazy there so that is why I ask. I am sure there is better deals somewhere else
thank you

haha, salut
Germany is the most expansive place in Europe for Porsche parts. I dont know why. I order headlights from UK this afternoon and have a very good deal. so far uk is the less expansive maybe because the tax is lower then Germany.
if you have a good place for shopping online for Porsche parts let me know

I've been using Design 911 UK for many years. They ship the same day, have very good prices and I get delivery in 6-7 days to Australia. Not one problem since I started purchasing from them in 2010.
Check them out on < Design911 & PPCGB Performance & Car parts Specialist >

Makes no difference for most part ... UK spec headlights maybe a problem though unless litronics and you can switch the beam pattern.

what a coincidence I ordered from Design911 also. I receive the tracking number after 2 hour so for this they are very effective. I will receive in 3days

yes I know about RHD and LHD. I only want the white corner headlight model. I am converting them with a bixenon projector so for me it make no difference.
so far 2 are satisfied with design911 so maybe I did a good choice

It really depends on what you want. If you want an M030 suspension kit then you can get a discount of the rrp from main Porsche dealers. TRW OE manufacturer for suspension arms parts is cheapest from local eBay suppliers. Type911 is another web shop which can be cheaper than Design911.

Don't get me wrong , I have used d911 for years when I was back in England .
About the only English place I will tell you avoid is porscheshop 
But I'll repeat it again , gert at carnewal is well worth a look into ...

this is good info thank you but I dont understand why so few. I think I am begining to realize my car and the parts are exclusive and that give a good reason for the sellers to ripoff and sell at price twice more
for now I had very good experience with design911. I found this company from reviews on this forum so that was a good confirmation

There are several other UK based outfits but they are not geared up for extensive online sales: Porschapart, Jasmine Porschalink. They sell new and used parts. For more regular parts then try Eurocarparts or carparts911.co.uk
