Thumbs Up Great service from Classic Alfa (classicalfa.com)

Super service from the guys at Classic Alfa in London. Ordered a bypass hose for my US spec Spider but it was different to the European spec item and didn't fit. Their response was great and they sourced the correct item and had it to me within a couple of days.

Highly recommended - www.classicalfa.com

Just thought that a good deed deserves some recognition!

They are good, but I've had a couple of silly niggles with them and my preferred choice is Chris at www.highwoodalfa.com who actually charges P&P in proportion to what he's sending rather than a blanket £6 (or whatever) on small items.

Re: Great service from Classic Alfa (classicalfa.com)

I think all the big four suppliers for classic Alfas are good, I use Chris at Highwood mainly, with the Bank's at Alfaholics as a good back up.Kevin at EB is very good but without a priced up website I find I go to the other two first. For no particular reason I rarely go to Richard at Classic Alfa, he was a bit slow delivering an airbox once but it would be too harsh to criticize him for that.

As I said they are all good, we are really quite lucky in the classic Alfa community

I can't fault any of the main 105 suppliers, you get a friendly, helpful and fast service from all of them. But as others have said, Chris at Highwood is brilliant.

My MOT tester was blown away by how quickly I got what he considered hard to source parts for a 40-odd year old car. AR-UK could learn a thing or two from all of these guys
