1. Introduction

Welcome to Transit Parts UK ("we," "us," or "our"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of our website (tpuk.net) and the purchase of any products, parts, or accessories from us. By accessing our website or placing an order, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must not use our website or services.

3. Product Descriptions and Vehicle Fitment

Due to the technical nature of automotive components, ensuring the correct part is ordered is the responsibility of the buyer.

  • Fitment Checking: While we strive to provide accurate compatibility lists and product descriptions, vehicle manufacturers frequently change specifications. Customers are strongly advised to verify fitment using Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part numbers before purchasing.

  • Professional Installation: We highly recommend that all auto parts be fitted by a qualified and certified mechanic. Transit Parts UK accepts no liability for damage to the part, the vehicle, or personal injury resulting from incorrect, improper, or unqualified installation.

4. Orders and Contract Formation

  • Order Acceptance: Placing an order on our website constitutes an offer to purchase. A legally binding contract is only formed when we dispatch the goods to you and send a formal dispatch confirmation email.

  • Right to Cancel or Reject: We reserve the right to cancel or refuse any order due to stock unavailability, pricing errors, or suspicion of fraudulent activity. In such cases, a full refund will be issued immediately.

5. Pricing and Payments

  • VAT: Unless otherwise stated, all prices displayed on our website include the applicable UK Value Added Tax (VAT) at the current rate.

  • Price Adjustments: Prices for our products are subject to change without notice. We will not honor expired promotional prices or compensate for price drops occurring after an order has been placed.

  • Payment Methods: We accept major credit/debit cards and secure third-party payment gateways. Payment must be cleared in full prior to the dispatch of any goods.

6. Shipping and Delivery

  • Dispatch Times: We aim to dispatch all orders placed before our daily cut-off time on the same working day. Orders placed on weekends or UK bank holidays will be processed on the next working day.

  • Delivery Estimates: Delivery timeframes are estimates and not guaranteed. Transit Parts UK is not liable for delays caused by couriers, severe weather, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

  • Missing or Damaged Goods: You must inspect your delivery upon receipt. Any missing items or transit damage must be reported to us within 48 hours of delivery.

7. Returns, Cancellations, and Refunds

We comply fully with the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations.

  • Standard 14-Day Right to Cancel: You have the right to cancel your order within 14 days of receiving the goods, without giving a reason. You then have a further 14 days to return the items to us.

  • Condition of Returns: Parts must be returned in their original, unused condition, in the original packaging, and must not have been fitted or altered.

  • Return Shipping and Incorrectly Ordered Parts: We do not cover the cost for items to be returned that were ordered incorrectly. Please call and check with us if you are unsure before placing an order. Unless the item was supplied incorrectly by us or arrived faulty, the customer is always responsible for the cost of return postage. We recommend using a trackable service.

  • Restocking Fees: Trade/B2B purchases or returns falling outside the statutory consumer cooling-off period may be subject to a restocking fee at our discretion.

8. Warranty and Limitation of Liability

  • Variable Product Warranty: Warranties are not a standard 12 months across all items; warranty periods will vary depending on the specific part, the manufacturer, and its intended usage. Please check directly with TPUK for confirmation of the exact warranty terms applicable to your specific item before purchase.

  • Mandatory Testing for Contested Items: Any item that needs to be contested or is subject to a warranty claim must be returned to us for testing and inspection. We will not authorize any replacements, credits, or refunds without physically receiving and testing the contested part first. We cannot process claims based solely on photographs, diagnostic printouts, or third-party garage reports.

  • Warranty Exclusions: Warranties are strictly against manufacturing defects and are immediately voided if the part has failed due to incorrect installation, track/motorsport use, modification, wear and tear, or lack of standard vehicle maintenance.

  • Limitation of Liability: To the maximum extent permitted by UK law, Transit Parts UK shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential losses. Crucially, we do not cover third-party labor charges, garage fitting or diagnostic fees, vehicle recovery costs, or car hire charges incurred as a result of a faulty, incorrect, or delayed part. Our maximum liability is strictly limited to the original purchase price of the part supplied.
