• There are many different reasons, but most commonly the cost of a second-hand/ used car parts opposed to a new parts can save between 50-70% of the purchase price making them a cost-effective alternative. Consider these approximations (examples only):
• Second-hand, tested quality engine $450 as opposed to a reconditioned motor $1850
• Second hand door mirrors $55 as opposed to $165 RRP
• Hub caps/ wheels trims; second hand $20ea as opposed to $148ea RRP.
• Panels (bonnets, bumper bars, doors, boot lids, etc.) may be available in one’s desired colour to match the current car, opposed to a new part, which are usually only available in black under-colour.
• The new car parts may not currently be in stock (and therefore eliminates repair delays by easy access) or in possibly, no longer be available or manufactured,
• Modern day issues, such as global warming, climate change and the depletion of natural resources suggest the need to reduce the demand for resources and recycle. A reduction in the need for new car parts to be manufactured ultimately protects our environment for future generations.
• Auto recyclers play an important part in End-Of-Life Vehicles (ELVs) by dismantling and de-polluting contaminants and hazards such as the: oils, fuels, batteries, gases, airbag components, etc. furthermore, protecting our environment.

• Parts sales interpreters,
• Auto dismantlers &
• Mechanics, for prompt service and expert advice.

Many auto recyclers also have fully equipped mechanical workshop, assisting to install or repair your vehicle
