Why not order all the bits, get them sent to a uk address, get the addressee to confirm/double check all parts are there, then get the lot shipped out to you?

Good idea...could send to owner he could check then send on...am more concerned about delivery time and contactability to be honest...

Even better the onus of responsibility is then on the owner to make sure the parts are there, saves you a whole load of potential grief, and he gets to pay for the postage to you up front.
 
If you want specific makes or manufacturers or most importantly not Britpart then order over the phone. At least you can ask the question. I’ve ordered several times from paddocks when even the photo has bearmarch and sure enough a blue box arrived.
I wouldn’t recommend getting anything britpart as much of it is sent direct and their packaging is useless. Lord only knows what state it would be in by the time it got out there. 4 radiators spring to mind. All battered.
