I needed to order the following for my '95 Disco so I called Rovers North and Atlantic British and got prices for the for follwing:
-Water pump RN=84.75 AB=99.50
-Power steering box seal kit RN= 135 AB=89.95
-Intake gasket and 2 seals RN=42.30 AB= 41.85

Rovers North charges: 262.05
Atlantic British: 231.75
I saved $30 for the exact same parts

Neal,

you buy your stuff at the wrong place. You want to see a real price diff, check with:

Nathan Crabtree at Discount Rovers boatbuggy@aol.com
DiscoDad at drcantrell@cox.net
(I think these 2 arethe same company)

or

Mohammed at Europarts 1(800)274-4830

I don't know about Discount Rovers, but all 3 items would have cost you $168.00 from Mohammed. Also, I have made a few purchases from him, and even had some exchanges. He has been very honest, expedient, reasonable and accomodating.

I just placed an order with Dee (Nathan's partner) this week for some things that I didn't need in a hurry. I know they are the cheapest but reason why they are the cheapest is becasue they drop ship a lot if not most of their stuff. They admit, it can sometimes take longer to get your stuff through them, but that's the trade off for getting it at rock bottom prices.
