Covid 19 and how British Auto Parts is dealing with it.

Counter to close for sales (pick up only)

Yes we are still OPEN, we will do our best to keep you supported for as long as we can.

We have made restrictions to our counter (due to government guide lines) so we please ask our customers to co-operate with us so we can do our best to help.

We are no longer able to carry out counter sales, orders can be ideally placed through the web or by phone (please be paitent with us as we will now be short staffed).

To collect your orders we have a door bell on the front door.

If the door bell is not there then we are closed (our normal operationg hours are Mon - Fri 9am to 4pm).

If you choose to have a counter pickup we will call you once your order is ready for contactless collection.

We would like to wish all of our customers good health and thank you for your continued support in these tough times.

Please stay safe.

CHASSIS NUMBERS or VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN)

A lot of our Land Rover and Range Rover parts listed will have a VIN designation. The part of the VIN which is relative is the last 8 characters.

For example, a typical Land Rover Discovery 2 VIN would look like this: SALLTGM93YA288448

YA288448 is what is needed to identify the correct parts. Sometimes just the "YA" is enough.

As a rough guide, this chassis sequence started around 1984 with "AA", 1985 is "BA", 1986 "CA" and so on, "YA" is 2000, then "ZA" was skipped as it can be confused with "2A" so the sequence started again at "1A" for 2001, "2A" for 2002, up until "9A" for 2009, then from 2010, things started from "AA" once again, "BA" is 2011 and so on. This rule applies to any Land Rover and Range Rover model built from 1984, please remember that this is just a rough guide as County and Defenders like to bend these rules a bit.
