Parts In Motion sees real growth as trade demand surges

Award-winning online parts distributor Parts In Motion saw significant growth in 2025 driven by strong demand for core steering, braking, and powertrain components, with garages under more pressure than ever to deliver quick turnarounds and keep labour times low.

The company continues to support thousands of UK garages and technicians with rapid delivery, competitive pricing and an unmatched product range.

Parts In Motion has highlighted its top-selling components from 2025 as Wishbones / Suspension Arms, Brake Pad Sets, Brake Discs, Timing Belts, Brake Calipers and Wheel Bearings.

Matt Gates, Director at Parts In Motion, said: “Core safety and driveline components continue to dominate workshop workload – reinforcing that routine inspection and maintenance remain central to garage businesses.”

The popularity of suspension arms, brakes and related components reflects several ongoing trends in the sector. An ageing fleet and increased wear, as more vehicles are on the road, more frequent replacement cycles are required for parts exposed to everyday stresses such as potholes, braking loads and mileage accumulation.

Plus, there is a heavier focus on safety and compliance, as MOT advisories and customer expectations rise, workshops are prioritising parts that deliver reliable, long-lasting performance. End users are also more informed than ever, meaning garages need to offer transparent service and parts quality to remain competitive.

Parts In Motion lists at least one part for 99.9 percent of all vehicles on UK roads, ensuring workshops can find the right part for virtually any job.

Gates added: “Our mission has always been simple. To make it easier for technicians to get the right part, when they need it – without costly delays or guesswork. The fact we’re selling millions of parts annually, across core repair categories, shows that model is working.”

As the market heads into 2026, Parts In Motion expects trends in demand to surge further thanks to greater emphasis on parts availability for safety-critical systems, seasonal demand patterns shaping stock strategy and ongoing expansion of product lines to meet evolving vehicle parc needs

Gates continued: “We’re heading into 2026 with a clear view of what garages need. From proactive maintenance parts to essential repair components, we’re ready to support the trade with speed, choice and value.”

Garages and workshops can simply enter a vehicle registration on the Parts In Motion website, gaining access to thousands of competitively priced, high-quality parts, all available for next-day delivery.
