About Us

The story of All Euro Parts begins in 1983, when founder Auric Mirfin picked up his first tools as a mechanical apprentice in his father's VW workshop. Fueled by a passion for European engineering, Auric went on to complete his apprenticeship at Giltrap European in Auckland, later honing his craft at Continental Car Services. His journey then took him to London, where he managed a busy European vehicle repair garage for five years-gaining invaluable insight into the global automotive scene.

Returning to New Zealand in 1998, Auric joined Bill Tapper European before launching his own workshop, Autohaus European. It was during this time that he began building a collection of specialist tools for hire-tools tailored specifically for European vehicles. This side project soon gained traction, and what started as a niche offering steadily evolved into a full-scale parts and tools business.

In time, the demand outgrew the workshop. All Euro Parts emerged as its own brand, and in 2014, Auric passed Autohaus European into the capable hands of longtime colleague Adrian Sutton, after a decade of working together.

From that strong foundation, All Euro Parts expanded.Our Auckland branch opened in 2018, followed by Christchurch in 2021, and in 2024, we launched a major new warehouse operation in Auckland to meet growing demand across New Zealand.

Today, All Euro Parts proudly employs 29 dedicated team members, all committed to delivering the best in European automotive parts and tools. What began with a few tools and a deep love for European vehicles is now a nationwide network supporting workshops and garages to do what they do best. And we're just getting started.
