Anybody used a Britpart radiator yet!!

Just wondering if anybody has replaced their radiator with the britpart one ?

Not used Britpart. I got mine from here http://www.lrseries.com/shop/product/listi...amp;page=1 they were about the cheapest at the time. If I recall only one company makes the rads. They are then branded as genuine or aftermarket. But both the same. [img]http://www.fuelly.com/driver/rob2529/range-rover[img/]

That's what I've heard as well and that's the way it was for me - Behr is the OEM supplier of radiators and the 'aftermarket' radiator I got for much less than OEM was even in a Behr box.

EDIT: just saw the radiators are marked either 'Genuine' (GBP380) or 'OEM' (GBP176).

As above - there is only one manufacturer regardless of who you buy from. LR, Britpart, LRSeries - all the same.

I believe Britpart has done a bit with their quality in the last few years too. I purchased stuff from them for my RRClassics 15 years ago - made me regret what I spent on postage nevermind the parts price.

As of late, no longer tho. At least that's been my experience.

not the case though, LR series is just a company that sells parts. doesn't produce

Alot of the britpart stuff doesn't come from the same manufacturer as LR parts You can paypal direct using - www.paypal.me/duckworthparts

I realize that - and Britpart don't produce everything they sell themselves either.

I meant all 3 as parts sources in a wider sense -I could have included Duckworth. Razz

I was trying to say that AFAIK, all aftermarket L322 rads are manufactured by Behr - who is also the OEM supplier. I have yet to see a knock off. And at the price the aftermarket Behr pieces go for - why would any other radiator manufacturer try to enter the market?

Sounds good!

Judging from the original fitment which is only 56k old I might give it the non genuine a try !
