Where to get Spares

Updated: April 1999

For British Hillman owners, I have posted below details of places where you can get spares. Hillman Owners Club members should approach the Spares Co-ordinator, and look in Coventry Spires.

For overseas owners, the places below may send things by post - in some cases it says so - and at the end I've added one or two places I know of in Australia and the USA.

Providing details of any parts or product supplier does not imply endorsement of the company on my part.
Comments in quotation marks are from the companies' advertising or brochures; other comments are mine.
Always check if prices quoted include V.A.T. (Value Added Tax - a 17.5% purchase tax, which may not apply to overseas customers)
