Hello,

Are there vehicle new/used/refurbished parts online retailers whom
allow you to accurately and interactively enter relative information
about the vehicle for which you're trying to locate parts for and be
able to identify the parts you need and send them off to a shopping
cart sort of a list?

I'm focused on European cards.

This applies to after market upgrades as an addition.

Hi,
Thanks for using Google. 
I searched for car parts available online, and here is what I've
found.

This site has many links where you can check for car parts.
[ http://www.ysearchus.com/cgi-bin/smartsearch.cgi?keywords=car%20parts
]

Here is a list of several sites which deal in European cars.
[ http://broadfields2000.co.uk/ ]
[ http://alleuro.com/ ]
[ http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=european+cars&all=yes&cs=&cat=Business%2FIndustries%2FManufacturing%2FAutomotive%2FParts_and_Accessories
]
[ http://www.frautoparts.com/online_auto_parts.htm ]
[ http://www.carbusters.com/index.xsp ]
[http://www.travelbritain.com/search/Business_Economy/Automotive/Parts/index1.shtml]

This site offers worldwide shipping and has European car parts.
http://www.gapa.com/

Check out this site. It has various categories of parts for any
vehicle and depending on the type of vehicle, it will list you the
availablity.
[ http://www.carparts.com/parts/categories.asp?autoidsearch=no&segmentid=2&reflink=65980-0-0-0-0
]

This site takes a quote for a specific part and then checks for its
availability and let you know when its available anywhere in the junk
yard or somewhere within their sources.
[ http://www.used-car-parts-exchange.com/ ]

Almost all the sites gives you the option to purchase online by adding
it to the shopping cart. Also they have a contact email id or phone
number where you can contact them to get more info.

Search terms used:
new used refurbished european car parts online
://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=new+used+refurbished+european+car+parts+online&btnG=Google+Search

I hope this will help you in getting the best part for your vehicle.
All the best.

Regards,
netcrazy

Hello Netcrazy,

The list was good attempt, but I would like specific sites that
qualify and not lists of relative ones.  The ones with vehicle
screening such as the carparts.com site represent a good example what
I want.

ysearchus.com is a directory.

alleuro.com was rough and had 'no interactive vehicle screening' and
contained static listings of part numbers, brief descriptions, retail
and selling cost that cause plain consumers, such as myself, to be
confused as to what applies to their particular car.

broadfields2000.co.uk Is a static presentation of what the car shop
can do in terms of service and how much discount they provide. When
you click on Parts, you see a list of 'categories' without any
specifics on particular brands or models or even part numbers. 
They're primarilly an e-mail/phone/walk-in customer kind of a shop
with a homepage to advertise that. :-)

FRAutoparts.com This site has it done right and that's because they're
powered by http://catalog.eautopartscatalog.com as well as Gapa.com
which you've mentioned close to the end of the reply. Both have the
same engine and data and prices.

Carbusters.com When this site was included and that it deals with
European cars, I was under the impression that it would mean European
car parts. Did I miss something? :-)

travelbritain.com is a directory site with the automotive parts
companies and sites in the UK section high-lighted.  That can be
listed as how you located the qualifying site, but not an answer.

I may have misunderstood or didn't explain my question clearly to
properly appreciate the results you've presented.  Would you tell me
where I went wrong or give this a second try and see if we can come to
a mutually satisfactory result by providing an answer that supplies a
site by site listing with explanation of how that site satisfies the
'mentioned' ability to screen parts based on the vehicle information
of the car a person is trying to locate parts for.

When I mentioned that my focus is on European cars, it could also mean
that it's possible that they're not European cars at American
standards and that they could be European cars at European standard
which were imported, but that's just a bunch of details and not
satisfying them is alright as I didn't mention it in my original
question. :-)

Hi Lizardnation,
First of all, I'm sorry that you didn't get much sites from my earlier
references list. I hope this time, you'll be able to find the correct
site from this new list. I've tried to search with different search
terms and this is what I was able to filter for you.

Here is a site which helps you in car screening for a specific part.
[ http://vstore.nopi.com/Default.asp ]

Check this one too.
[ http://www.uneedapart.com/index.htm ]

This one looks interesting.
[ http://www.eurowebparts.com/default.htm ]

One more goes here:
[ http://www.the-best-source.com/ ]

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask for further clarifications and if
you get your answer, please leave a feedback. It helps.

Thanks
netcrazy
