Buy Land Rover Discovery Parts Online and Save
by Mike Goodwin
There's a big controversy going on among Land Rover Discovery drivers. The question is whether it is better to use genuine OEM (original equipment manufacturer) Land Rover parts or so-called "aftermarket" replacement parts for the Discovery. As always, there are pros and cons on both sides of the argument, and there is even some confusion about which parts should be called "OEM" parts in the first place.
In general, aftermarket or third-party parts for the Land Rover Discovery usually come from independent suppliers, and often cost less than so-called "genuine" or OEM parts. Genuine OEM parts, on the other hand, must be purchased through an authorized Land Rover dealer. It is true that OEM parts can often be more expensive than aftermarket parts, but they also have a reputation for being more durable and are built to the exact factory specifications. So which choice should you make?
If cost is your primary consideration, it makes sense to at least compare third-party Land Rover Discovery parts. Another important consideration is how critical the part is. For example, if you are replacing a small part, not of critical importance on your Discovery, then you could be safe going with an aftermarket or third-party parts.
But on the other hand, if you are replacing critical parts, such as steering stabilizers or a rear end differential, you probably do not want to risk trying an aftermarket or "off-brand" supplier for these critical Rover parts.
No matter whether you decide to go for genuine OEM parts or aftermarket parts, you'll likely find the best deals on Land Rover Discovery parts by shopping online. There are now dozens of Land Rover parts distributors online, and you can quickly locate any specific part you need in just a few seconds from the comfort of your own home.
But not only is it more convenient to shop for parts online for your Land Rover Discovery, it can also save you big money. Online parts suppliers are the closest thing to buying wholesale Rover parts you will find. By eliminating the salespeople, warehouse and retail storefront, online suppliers are often able to sell Land Rover parts at significant discounts, and occasionally, you'll even find free shipping available on certain Discovery parts.
It's also much faster to look for your Land Rover Discovery parts online than to call or drive around town in search of what you need. Nearly all of the parts suppliers online have search functions integrated into their web sites. The search function will allow you to find the exact part you are looking for in a fraction of a second. And if the supplier does not have the part you need, you'll find out quickly, without having to wait for someone to "go check in the back."
Shopping online for parts is the easiest way to keep your Land Rover Discovery in show room condition, while saving you both time and money.
