I'm about to buy air, fuel and oil filter for coming service... Last time I bought the filters from this user at eBay: http://myworld.ebay....=p2047675.l2559 The only filter that could be fitted was the oil filter, the air and fuel filter had wrong dimensions I guess.. so I wonder if someone here recently bought filters for the VXT from eBay (or another site) and got the right stuff? I think I got the same fuel filter as this one: http://www.vx220.org...el-filter-help/

Autovaux are very good for service items but not sure of P&P costs to you. Courtenay Sport would also be able to provide parts as per their website Sure someone could give you the parts numbers to help if required - I dont have them to hand currently DG

:yeahthat: Service parts aren't particularly expensive from a dealer. For the amount of times you'll be changing an air or fuel filter its easy to roll up and get them.

Just walk into a local dealer or eurocarparts or uni part or bullseye or local motorfactor. You can usually wangle some discount if you ask, same ball park as eBay prices a you have a physical place to take the thing back to swap it. Hate internet shopping. Also, no waiting for it to be delivered as if the don't have it in stock they do by the afternoon

Just noticed your in Sweden. Do they have those sort of little shops? With getting it wrong, about every other car I work on a wrong part is bought/turns up. So many different variations for 2 cars that are identical. Very annoying
