The UK is something else these days. Took two weeks to get some genuine front brake pads from Sweden.
Other than basic service items, you'll usually have to wait a couple days for parts.
I Was talking about this the other day, I've been watching some YouTubers resurrect old American metal. They drag a 70's land yacht out of a barn or shed or the woods, then just pop to the nearest 'o reilleys' where they have exactly what they need, in stock, or move it across thousands of Miles for the next day.
Meanwhile I needed a rotor arm for a fairly common car and it took 3 days!
