Definitly not recommanded. I order from them some items for a total of 97 euros including 16 euros of delivery fees to France. At order time the screen was showing "taxes 0". Some day later i got an email from UPS saying i had to pay 40 euros as additional taxes. The UPS guy NEVER SHOWED UP at my address. The package have been returned to them, or "might be destroyed" they don t really know ... For 97 euros this is the only thing i got, an email saying : "Once we receive the package I will issue a refund for the parts minus initial delivery and minus the cost of return to the UK. Please note the cost of return can be higher than the initial delivery as the same discounted rates do not apply." It's just stealing. DO NOT SHOP with that company, especially if you order from outside UK.

Hi Clement, We have responded to your most recent email but here is a copy of that response. UPS will not attempt delivery until the customs fees are paid. They may try to contact you, but a courier will not arrive at the address. They’ve informed us that they sent a request for payment to the Customs Authority, which was not acknowledged by the deadline. As a result, the package is either being returned to the UK or destroyed. We contacted UPS this morning to get an update after reading your concerns about the VAT charges online, where you mentioned you were going to refuse delivery (google reviews) a week ago. We sent a response explaining the return costs so you could make an informed decision. The claim that "UPS said the package was refused due to VAT fees are just false, or basic lies" in your email, under UPS's terms and conditions, refusing to pay customs fees is considered refusing the package, as outlined on our website. Refusing payment is the same as refusing delivery. We understand that VAT charges can be expensive and inconvenient, but they are a legal requirement when importing goods from overseas. Each destination country sets its own tariffs and laws. In the UK, for example, customers pay 20% VAT at the checkout, and we handle the payment to UK authorities. However, as we ship to multiple countries, it’s difficult to keep track of every country’s VAT rates and charges, as these can vary and change frequently. We completely agree that paying 40 Euros on a 70 Euro order, especially when delivery has been paid for, seems unreasonable – and it is. The reason the cost is so high is due to UPS’s admin fees. Here’s the breakdown of the charges in France: Government fees: €18.00 Brokerage fees: €17.50 VAT (T.V.A.): €3.50 Choosing UPS as the courier increases the cost significantly due to their fees. FedEx, on the other hand, offers lower rates, which is why we recommend them at checkout for EU orders under €300. Please be aware that we make no money from this – it’s the courier and customs who do. If VAT is left unpaid, the package is returned to the UK, but at a higher cost. Unfortunately, we can’t cover this as it’s the importer’s responsibility to be aware of import fees when ordering from overseas. We do have this information on our website in several places. You may receive a partial refund, depending on the return costs to the UK. Once UPS provides us with the documentation, we’ll issue a refund if applicable, after covering those costs. We’re truly sorry for the high fees you’ve faced with this order. If there was a way we could help our overseas customers avoid these costs, we absolutely would.

Hi Bernhard, Thank you so much for the 5* review. I am very glad to read that you were satisfied with the parts you received from us for your Perkins engine. However, I do understand the frustration that comes with the high shipping cost when importing from the UK. Please be assured that we are working on possible avenues we could take as a company to bring these costs down. Thank you for shopping with us- Gemma

I ordered a lift pump (needed quickly)for an older VP 2002 and several other parts to have on hand for future maintenance and was impressed on how quickly the parts made it to my doorstep halfway across the planet. High praise for the decent selection of parts and the promptness for filling the order.

Hi There, Thank you for the feedback, good or bad we appreciate it. I am glad to read you are happy with the water pump, but I do understand the frustration with the import fees and VAT. We charge a delivery fee on behalf of the couriers. When exporting goods from the UK to Denmark, UK VAT is not applicable. However, Danish VAT still applies. Given that we ship globally and each country has its own import and export laws and VAT regulations, we do not advertise specific VAT rates. As a UK-based company, it is challenging to be aware of the VAT rates for every country, as these are set by each respective government. For shipments from the UK to EU countries, VAT will always be charged according to the rate set by the destination country. During the checkout process, we suggest choosing FedEx as your courier for EU destinations. FedEx includes Pre-Paid VAT in their shipping prices, ensuring that no additional fees are incurred at Danish customs. In contrast, couriers like UPS and DHL do not include Pre-Paid VAT and may charge an administrative/service fee for collecting the VAT, which will be added to the overall cost. You can find the VAT information on our website under the headings Shipping, FAQ, Delivery and EU delivery. I hope this makes sense :)) Thank you for shopping with us - Gemma

I've used Part4Engines twice to buy new flexible engine mounts for my narrow boat. I had four new ones from them in 2018, which I've been very pleased with and their service at the time was excellent in every respect. Unfortunately, I made a slight alignment error with one of them when I fitted it, which resulted in it starting to fail in 2024. This was entirely my fault, not the part's or the firm's. I've just used them to supply a replacement for the failed one and other than the price having gone up dramatically (like everything) since 2018, their service was every bit as good as last time and the new part is already fitted on the boat. This time I've aligned it properly, too. I'm very happy to recomment the firm and their products to you. I will certainly use them again.

Hi There Joe, Thank you so much for taking the time to write this amazing review !! I am so glad to read that you were happy with our services previously and most recently. We all make errors from time to time but I am pleased to hear you got it all fixed up !! I do understand the price increased from the first order to now can be a bit of a shock but our suppliers are ever increasing their prices so it becomes difficult to keep are prices the same over the years, but we try to keep all the pricing competitive :)) Thank you again for recommending us !! - Gemma

Greatvto deal with. Good catalogue and good prices. However while 7 seven days from order to delivery in Australia is great when you need parts NOW, on small nonurgent items the delivery costs can be more than the item cost. Could you also consider an alternative post service.
