A leading Kent-based Maserati specialist, Giallo Cars, has successfully reduced repair costs for its customers by switching to Delphi’s premium aftermarket brake components. Moving away from costly OEM parts, the Tonbridge garage now offers a more affordable solution for Maserati owners while maintaining high-quality standards. Thanks to Delphi and local supplier GSF Car Parts, Giallo Cars can efficiently source hard-to-find brake components, ensuring cost-effective servicing without compromising on performance.
Key Highlights:
- Giallo Cars, a Tonbridge-based Maserati specialist, services up to 15 vehicles weekly, focusing on models over three years old.
- Rising OEM brake costs prompted a switch to Delphi’s aftermarket brake components, known for matching OE performance standards.
- GSF Car Parts in Tunbridge Wells ensures a steady supply of Delphi brakes, keeping inventory in stock for immediate use.
- Customers have responded positively to Delphi’s blend of quality and affordability, boosting satisfaction and retention.
- Giallo Cars is exploring additional Delphi components, such as steering and suspension parts, to further broaden its offerings.
- Delphi’s commitment to covering niche manufacturers like Maserati supports independent garages in offering cost-effective repairs.
- Collaboration between Delphi, GSF Car Parts, and Giallo Cars is ongoing, aiming to identify more areas for product integration.
Giallo Cars, established in 2005, has built a strong reputation as a leading independent Maserati specialist in the South-East, serving clients from Kent, Sussex, London, Essex, Surrey, and Hampshire. Managing Director Mathew Sage recognized the need for more affordable brake options when customers began questioning the high costs of OEM Maserati brake parts.
“When the vehicle is new and you’ve just spent £120,000, you expect the brakes to be expensive. Those buying them five years on aren’t so keen on paying premium prices though, but they still want branded items,” said Sage.
A longstanding relationship with GSF Car Parts opened the door to Delphi’s Tier-1 OE quality brake components, providing a reliable and cost-effective alternative. With Delphi’s brakes now fully integrated, Giallo Cars benefits from improved customer satisfaction and seamless access to parts.
“Our customers are really happy with the quality and the more realistic price. Our local GSF Car Parts branch keeps it all in stock for us, so we can just request it as we need it,” Mathew added.
The success of the brake component integration has encouraged Giallo Cars to consider expanding into Delphi’s steering and suspension ranges, offering customers even more cost-effective options for repairs.
“Delphi’s braking coverage is extensive,” noted Alan Bodfish, UK Sales Manager at Delphi. “We cover most mainstream makes but also ensure parts are available for niche manufacturers. It’s rewarding to support specialists like Giallo Cars, giving Maserati owners more choice for their servicing and repairs.”
The collaboration between Delphi, GSF Car Parts, and Giallo Cars highlights the importance of affordable, high-quality aftermarket solutions, helping independent garages thrive while keeping costs manageable for customers.
