After several disappointments sourcing good quality original parts from 3rd party vendors, I decided to order from Heritage Parts after seeing the name frequently mentioned on a forum. I ordered online 3 items. The ordering process went smooth and within 1 week received one of the items, the most critical I was wanting, the quality seemed ok but there was no manner to tell where it was manufactured. I called Heritage to enquire about the missing parts and was told they were out of stock and would be sent on when the new stock was in, which I found a little puzzling as the parts were generic and basic and would have expected a reasonable stock to be held by a parts supplier. The lady I spoke to was friendly and polite. The parts did finally arrive about 6 weeks later, and as Heritage advertise genuine parts from the manufacturer's factory in Germany I was somewhat disappointed to see "Made in China" on the product. Not what I was expecting. Heritage has now slipped down my list of potential parts suppliers. Needless to say, I'm not very impressed.

Dear Martin, I can see that Eliot from our Tech team gave you a date of early July back at the beginning of June and we have not met that date. We are sorry for this delay. The good news is that I can see that the stock has arrived at our warehouse in Bremen and the part should be despatched to you later today. Thanks for your patience.

You sent me a door handle with damaged paint. I complained. You said sorry we will send another. That was ages ago.

Good day, Sorry you were not satisfied with the pulley. We are looking into this for you and will email you soon. Thanks.

Good afternoon, I have looked into your order and can see that you ordered a Type-4 1700-2000cc alternator and a Type-1 1200-1600cc pulley wheel. As you have pointed out the two items are not compatible with each other. Unfortunately at this time we don't stock a Type-4 1700-2000cc alternator pulley. If you would like to return the pulley we would be happy to refund you in full for this item, you can find the return form in the link below. https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/returns Thanks.

Not that great really, the part I needed on your website said two were in stock so placed an order for next day delivery, it didn't arrive. Only to be told you don't have the part in stock, I got a refund and sourced the part for half price on ebay, so will look there in future as you seem very expensive.

Hice el pedido el 3 de Mayo y tras 2 envios sigo esperando un articulo, es una pena que teniendo la imagen que tenéis después comparando con otras páginas (alemana, francesa) a las que he pedido en la misma fecha, el envío de vuestro pedido debería mejorar

Hola. Disculpas por los retrasos que pretendemos suministrar según las fechas de nuestro sitio web, pero a veces las cosas salen mal.

Wide selection of parts but customer care is seriously lacking. I received wrong part but no one is replying to my emails. Already 2 weeks passed since my 1st email. I have sent email twice. Sent FB message. Called internationally was put on hold for over 1 hr until I hung up. Tried posting on your facebook page. No one seems to care. My only option I am seeing now is to open a Paypal claim. Also I am missing two other parts since they are out of stock - I hope I do get them eventually because this lack of response is worrying.

The website is fine to use, payments easy. Not impressed by the fact I searched for genuine part numbers for bolt for my full nut and bolt rebuild but then received multicoloured bolts nuts and washer which just look like cheap replacement spec bolts. Complained only or be offer a better quality bolt but in silver! No silver nuts or washers. No mention on website that non genuine parts would be sent in place of genuine parts. Had to pay to return items £5. So £45 for four mix matched bolts and washers versus zinc plated bolts and washers form a fastening company for £12 inc post. I would have been happy paying the extra if they would have look right.

Hi Darren Sorry we didn't meet your expectations. Unfortunately, not all items for older vehicles are available genuine however we do spec any alternative items such as these bolts to ensure the correct spec, size and tensile strength.

My shock absorber order was fine, But I have e-mailed a few times about front and rear bumpers for my T4 and nobody bothered to reply. Just assumed you don't want the business.

Hi Tim Thanks for leaving a review. One of our Trade Team emailed you about the bumpers on 26th April, maybe it went into your junk. email copy below and resent for you. I've also sent you a private message about trade accounts. Good Morning Tim, I can look into these bumpers for you. Do you have a 3 piece rear bumper or a 1 piece? Looking at it the 3 piece would be made of these parts: https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/701807322c-right-rear-bumper-corner-with-fog-light-hole.html https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/701807321c-left-rear-bumper-corner-with-fog-light-hole.html https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/701807311e-textured-rear-bumper-centre-piece.html The 1 Piece would be: https://www.heritagepartscentre.com/uk/7018074172bc-one-piece-rear-bumper-with-a-textured-finish.html

hello I like your website, but the cost that DHL I staking for the custom part is too expensive, so I do not think I am gonna use your site further. It's a major cost on small orders, i would like to get the parts sent directly to me, from you guys instead. I can not see if you are selling the parts without local tax for export. Roger Hansen

Hi Roger We do ship to Norway without UK VAT so the parts are 20% off to you guys but you will be liable for Norweigian tax and duty on arrival.
