This has been know to me for years but I just had experience of it the other day again and I thought I'd post to fill ye in.
I have to get my handbrake done (E36 BMW).
Handbrake shoes in BMW Dealer in RoI - €71
Handbrake shoes in BMW Specialist in NI - £20
Wife needs sensor for Saxo VTR
Coolant Temp Sensor in Dealer in RoI - €45
Coolant Temp Sensor in Dealer in NI - £17
It's ridiculous that we should have to pay soooo much more for basic service parts.
Bottom line, buy your parts online from somewhere like www.eurocarparts.com or www.gsfcarparts.com (no affiliation with either)
and bring them to a garage to have them fitted.
