There are two different Korean motor spares businesses in Pretoria West, both trading under similar names and both a short distance apart. Getting the right one matters, because they are separate companies with separate stock. Both are listed below with the details they publish themselves.

Which one to call
- Charlotte Maxeke Street and Lorentz Street are both in Pretoria West but are different premises. Check the street name on any quote or invoice you already have
- Seoul lists the wider branch network across Gauteng, Rustenburg and Nelspruit. Paraco has three branches, in Pretoria West, Centurion and Edenvale
- Both supply parts for the Korean marques: Hyundai, Kia, Daewoo and SsangYong
- Have the vehicle VIN or the original part number ready. Korean model ranges changed part numbers frequently, and the year and engine code decide which part fits
Note on a third name
The domain koreanmotorspares.co.za serves an unrelated online retailer, KParts or Korean Automotive Parts (Pty) Ltd, which lists branches in Boksburg, Midrand, Primrose, Constantia, Port Elizabeth, Cape Town and George. It has no Pretoria branch, so it is not the business you want if you are looking for Pretoria West.
