About Dunedin Auto Parts
Dunedin Auto Parts helps Dunedin and Otago vehicle owners turn unwanted cars into value while keeping useful parts in circulation.
Old, damaged and end of life vehicles come into our dismantling operation, where usable engines, gearboxes, panels, lights and other parts are recovered and sold to customers who need them.
This gives vehicle owners a practical way to clear an unwanted car, while drivers and repairers get access to more affordable second hand parts than buying everything new.
With a local yard at 100A Old Brighton Road, Fairfield, Dunedin and service across the region, getting a car collected or finding the right used part is straightforward. Read more about our team and story.
