er cv boots brake parts and clutch you can prob get from seat parts (not sure on price but will be a bit as it is main dealer)

but a starter motor u can get from a scrap yard. you could get some CV boots from a scrappers as well but would give them a thorough looking at and a good clean.

for cheaper standard parts try the following 3 in no particular order:

seatspares.co.uk
eurocarparts.co.uk
gsfcarparts.com

All cheaper then the main dealer

Auto factors (http://www.camberleyautofactors.com/home/index.php)
Breakers yards (there all over just use your yellow pages!)
Local Stealers (Will be expensive)
Even a friendly mechanic?
