Partspool has released the latest version of its international vehicle parts locator service. Partspool.com allows the trade to advertise and acquire difficult-to-source parts.

Version 5.0 is now available, offering new features, such as lower subscription rates to individual dealers and dealer groups, improved data load facilities, site monitoring to provide user assistance by phone and content monitoring to ensure the accuracy of the database.

The current database has 500,000 parts, increasing as more dealers add their stock.

The service is free to anyone looking for a part. There is a subscription charge for those wanting to add parts to the database, from £5 a quarter for 10 part to £25 for members of a dealer group wanting unlimited access.
