Recently I priced a shocker for my Master-ace from "japarts". They quoted me £244-10 +vat +p&p, yet when I priced the shocker at a MAIN DEALER I was quoted £116+vat for a genuine Toyota part. I think someone somewhere is trying to take advantage of us poor Townies.

I quite agree, I think that the trade in general treats import owners with the same contempt that they do women drivers, ie ripping off & taking the pi**. However, just a little question, has your masterace got TEMS? & did Japarts quote for a TEMS shock & the main dealer for a non TEMS Shock, just a thought. Regards Rob.

Yes Rob, it was definately for one with TEMS. I've sent you an e.mail
