Default Anyone else work in car parts depts ????

See a few people post that they work in car parts departments just noone ever mentions where or who they work for...

I work for Unipart Automotive and did work for Bennetts Automotive before that but got made redundant just before xmas....

So anyone work at a Main dealer, Euros, CSF, GSF, etc etc?????

i work in parts aswell, we have a few companys in the same building, i am employed by 'Tomo Motorparts' specalising in genuine Ford parts, we also have 'Tomo Citroen' official Citroen supplier & also do Peugeot parts.
My bosses father's company 'Jaydeen' is a Ford inport/export company.

i do a bit of everything at work, i went there to drive the van for 2 weeks as a favour, ended up doing it for a few months then worked in the warehouse for a while, then done a couple of years in the office, left for a year then went back again

mainly in the warehouse now keeping on top of locations etc...
to much stress in the office for me

They were spot on at getting me a master cylinder when Ford said it was NLA and the likes of Pages didn't have a clue.


Be proud.
