I've just rang my Peugeot 206 dealer in goole for a price for a couple of bits and I was surprised how cheap they were,
Front grill for the sports bumper £18.36
lion badges for wheels £6.36 each,
cheaper than flee bay 
Anyone else found that Peugeot arnt actually all that bad on prices ??
I know these bits were cheap but Im not to sure what they'd be like for prices on things like mirrors and alternators etc etc

Because of a lot of comments on this forum put people off that's why. Everyone thinks they can get cheaper either on here or on eBay and won't even bother going to the dealer as they will always thinks its going to be expensive because it's a main dealer but if people were peppered to do some research instead of just thinking that they will be surprised.
No matter how many times it is said no one will ever take notice, so you may as well not say anything and let them pay over the odds for things.

Same backbox?
Also, I've found work is expensive but if you turn-up with part numbers and just get the parts it's cheaper and better.

Euro car parts are not the same , they rust/degrade a lot faster and look cheaper than the real thing i had a euro back box for my 138 and it lasted 6 months before the hanging arm rusted off and the weld started to crack where as my original pug back box lasted 3 years with no problems would probably still be going if i didnt get a sportex
