Good girl :). Where is screwing you about working on the car then?
Local detailing company, meant to have done some tinting and wrapping the last 2 weekends, useless cun7s!! And the wheel company are beyond toss at giving out any info. Spoke to one of them on Thursday after riging for 2 hours to be told, 'give me 15 mins and I will send you an email' I must have heard incorrectly, think he must have said 15 days. I have sent him 3 emails since talking to him but not heard jack back.
I finally got my center caps!

Matt was "on the phone". I am told he has seen my emails and he was going to reply today. Some people don't realise you have to organize weekend work at the start of the week :bash:
Note to self, should have used revolution on here for the wheels.

Shopp, what address did you email? Keith if the day-to-day boss man who deals with a lot of the messages when he is actually at his desk and from many email exchanges with him over the years/phone conversations, it is best to call for him.

Always friendly and happy to chat and he will make a point of going to his pooter to check the messages while on the phone to you. He is just a very busy chap but a very good chap.

I use them wherever possible, only recently Keith bent over backwards to sort out my new pair of rims at a really good price and free delivery direct from OZ in Italy as well as some Scoob bits.
Current:

23' C8 RS6 Vorsprung - 23' RS E-Tron GT Carbon Vorsprung

"Taz"- C7 RS6 - MRC stage 2 745PS/1095Nm
12' Cayenne Turbo, B7 RS4, S3, Cupra R, XJR, EVO VII, STI8,5,2&WRX, 106 GTI&XSI, other crap.

I'm sure it helps when you get hold of the right person. Sadly I don't always have the time or inclination to pursue things further when I don't get a reply to the email address on the site. One thing I hate with a passion is chasing people to try and give them business. Drives me up the wall. If they are not going to reply to business enquiries sent their main address on the webshite, then why even bother putting it on there?

Ok, well for future reference if you do want something from them, calling and asking to speak to Keith Tyler is your best bet imo if you want to discuss things.

I hate having to chase folks up too, i really don't know how some companies survive. Anyhoo, should hopefully know tomorrow when the wheels will be landing in the uk.

Wonder if anyone has told MrPerc to turn his lights off yet or if the local chavs wave at him when he goes past :thumbs:

BotchScotch blocks... :bash:
Aggghhh! Hate it when Shop's right!!

Had intermittent connection on my DRL's for the past couple of weeks - turned out to be the Scotch block failing.

Now replaced with a proper soldered job!
