EuropeWhy buy car parts from the UK
The UK breaks a large number of vehicles every year, which means strong availability and competitive pricing on used and reconditioned parts — especially engines, gearboxes, body panels and electrical units. That supply is the reason this trade route exists at all.
Right-hand-drive markets across East and Southern Africa get a further advantage: UK stock fits without adaptation, which is not true of every sourcing market.
How a typical order works
- Send your list — part numbers, engine codes or your buying spec, plus the destination city.
- We confirm and source — what we hold now, and what has to be sourced to order.
- We hold your stock while the load builds, so you are not shipping half-empty.
- Pack and label — fluids drained, heavy units crated, everything cross-referenced to the packing list.
- Ship and clear — commercial invoice and packing list travel with the load; your agent clears it at the far end.
New to importing car parts?
Start with starting a car parts export business, then the step-by-step export guide, container consolidation and the paperwork explained. Between them they cover most of what goes wrong on a first shipment.
Are you a UK seller instead?
This page is for buyers importing from the UK. If you have parts or salvage vehicles to sell, that is the other half of the business — see selling your car parts or trade and wholesale supply.
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about buying, selling and shipping car parts with LJ Auto.
Which countries do you export car parts to?
We ship from our UK hub to Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Zimbabwe and South Africa, plus China and Ireland. If your country is not listed, ask — those are the routes we run most often, not the only ones we can quote.
How much does export shipping cost?
Freight is priced mainly by space and weight rather than item count, so consolidating into one container is dramatically cheaper per item than shipping separately. Send your parts list and destination city for a quote.
Can I mix parts and a whole vehicle in one container?
Yes, and it is usually the cheapest configuration. Loose parts fill the space around a vehicle or a half cut, so the cost per item across the whole load falls.
Do you handle customs clearance?
We supply the commercial invoice and packing list. Clearance and import duty are handled in the destination country by you or your agent, because those rules are set locally rather than in the UK.
