Mark-RS. NO she doesn’t.
Hope it stays that way LOL.
Will have to wait a short while though for the big items. As I have just spent another 2.5 K on her.

There was another company making the hoses, or some of them, at least. Rsparts? Something like that?
Hi Shopp, FWIW Rscarparts is mostly selling used parts, but I've seen refurbished items like the oil cooler. Not sure I would buy second hand hoses though, particularly when the hoses DIY presented in Matt's thread is working so well.. except if you have an urge to stay 100% original of course.
Classik, have you bought from rscarparts before? Do you know if they ship to UK? How do you manage the communications since their site is only in German? CheeRS.

Hi Shopp, yes I did, last thing I bought was a spare ECU for making tests with different maps. BENJAMIN KNOLL is the person in charge, very nice to deal with and English fluent, no issue. Can't tell about shipping to the UK though, why on earth did you choose to leave the EEC ? ;)

Hi Shopp

They do ship to UK👍 I asked them they same question as I thought they would say the same thing as Audi Tradition but the chap that emailed me back was like yeah we ship to the UK all the time no problem. I got one of my oil cooler pipes from them think it took about 8-10 days to get but very happy with it though.

Hi guys.
I have just emailed Benjamin Knoll to see if they will ship to the uk.
If they do I will be ordering a few parts from them.
Will update when I get a reply from them.

Just had confirmation that rscarparts in Germany do deliver to the uk.
Looks like most of their parts are used parts.
But I think I will give them a go.
Pity my German is non existent but I do have the part numbers for the items I am looking for.

I spoke to Oliver the Sales Manager @ RS Car Parts, he spoke good English.

Bear in mind you will need to pay duty on any parts coming in, mine was about £30 if I remember correctly.
