 |
|
Hiya all!
Now that I've started up my 33 restoration site - I get literally HUNDREDS of Emails asking where owners can get parts for their Alfa 33's. I have no time to help these people individually.... but I wanna help nonetheless.
Perhaps you guys could post good parts suppliers you've used - so I can create a new section on the website to refer them to?
Thanks!
Bob

Hi Bob,
I've always used mangoletsi. Don't know if they're the cheapest but they never fail to get the parts needed. From memory their website is www.mangoletsi.com |

I agree with Lee, I have used Mangoletsi quite a bit in the past and if the bits are still available they can get them pretty quickly. The parts bloke (Darren I think) is very helpful and acknowledges that 33s exist, unlike most main dealers.
Justsuds do quite a few 33 parts (www.justsuds.co.uk) but I haven't tried them.
I've heard good things about Alfashop too
Hope thats of some use

Hi Edward,
I'm from Bristol originally - so I'm sure you'll understand the language me lover!

Bob,
I know exactly what you mean - its quite interesting some of the 'alternative' language options available here.
I still smile when I hear 'where are you to....?' I feel like saying ....'there's not 2 of me here.....I'm on my own!!!!'.
It's like being on a different planet sometimes he he....!
Edward.
