I found CP4L on a search for ignition bits. Being a suspicious sort, I had a bit of a look up on my credit software & it turns out they are in effect a subsidiary of Euro car parts.

Same looking website, parts have the same sku numbers and so on, but they are 20%+ cheaper. Why would they do that? I'm never touching ECP again, now I know they have another site on which they're willing to hand me a chunk of the margin.

I'm sure there's a good reason, but I don't get it.

i thought that as well but actually with the right discount codes euro car parts works out the same if not cheaper.
Also the parts arrive with ecp on them anyway! heck of a lot easier to take or pick up ecp parts!
Yes, the codes are handy but they tend to make offers on service parts more than anything and this is effectively a discount across the range and ECP has a well developed internet offer in any event. It seems like duplication for no real purpose.
