Think that thermostats are low priced, low margin parts? Think again! Today's vehicles have sophisticated thermostats that, in many cases,are controlled by the ECU and therefore have a high value and require more time and skill to fit. This represents a great new profit opportunity for the aftermarket.


Simple maths shows you that with a UK car parc of over 32 million vehicles and a replacement rate of 9% ‐ 10%, then the total business is in excess of 3 million pieces, with 60% of those being fitted in the aftermarket.
