I used them for an Ignition barrel and a window regulator.
I ordered from my I-Phone on the sunday and the parts were delivered on Tue morning.
Although I ordered non OE parts they were a perfect fit and all is now good with the old girl (Landrover) not the wife!
VERY CHEAP PRICES
If I ever need any other parts they are my first port of call.
Can not rate them highly enough.
Saved about £200 over Landrover Wakefield price.

If the market and buyers are there for Britpart, then why not sell the stuff?

They do but they give you the option of buying from the different manufacturers and have a price comparison
for instance
Island 4x4 - Specialists in Land Rover and Range Rover Parts and accessories for all models. UK and worldwide mail order.
I use them for all my parts and yes lots of it has been Britpart, but i have had not a single thing to complain about. They are only a 30 min drive from me so I call in and collect my parts and they are very very helpfull.
Best of all for me is that they move to Maidstone just 2 minutes up the road from me next month
Cant recommend them enough

yes used them on sunday and so far happy .....well apart from the clutch kit they possted out didnt have a bearing in the box but that may not be there fault ....will see tomorrowwhen the boiler gives them a ring ......
I have just used these guys - wanted some advice on front brakes, as need to change mine (discs & callipers etc) so going down the route of the 110 defender setup to get vented discs, and they were great. Even down to listing the calliper bolts and emailing the part number to me so I could order them too. All sorted in around an hour from phoning them on a Monday which apparently is their busiest day...
Ordered about 3ish yesterday, and all the stuff landed today just after 12. Everything in the box is what I ordered and all looks good, so I certainly would use them again - and their prices are very competitive too
Now just to fit everything

I used to have good things to say about Island, but I've bought my last lot from them.
Bought some stuff for my D1 and they failed and took the motor with it.
Now I think they are coonts:frown:

Just bought a new track rod and a EGR kit from them!
Again it was next day delivery, so excellent service.
So now I have loads to do for the MOT on monday.
Bushes (full set to fit) (Although I have just taken delivery of a 6T press which should help a little)
Track rod
EGR can wait till after the test I think.

I ordered some clear indicators from them and they arrived next day. They are a good bunch.
They are a supplier at the end of the day. They supply Britpart as well as other brands. They don't make them, they supply them. If something fails then it is the manufacturer at fault.
I don't believe Britpart have adequate product quality checks coz everything I've had for my own Land Rover has been **** with the exception funnily enough of some wheel bearings
When the timing was done I used OE gear. I wouldn't ever risk anything like that for the sake of a few extra quid. Whereas if a wheel bearing fails, you'll ruin your pants but that's just about it
