  1. Two replacement spacers arriving tomorrow. Prompt and polite attention from Martin. Reputation up a notch from me.
  2. Ian After p.m.s texts,e mails with no response what are you talking about? Martin is sorting it out and i have not said i won,t deal with him again. I make the point about contact details because i had to do my own research before i finally found a telephone number to speak to the guy.When i did eventually make contact he was apologetic for the manufacturing delay and i received the good a week later. The quality defect was discovered this morning after the fitters discovered the wrong size studs had been used.There is a new batch of spacers on stock and Martin is arranging for the faulty one to be collected when the replacement one is delivered. One tip for anyone fitting spacers... try one of you wheel nuts on all the spacer studs before fitting.
  3. Freebird... 35mm... might look like a dune buggy ! Better get those arches rolling. Ricey ... good to hear i have company in my views about buying from suppliers without contact details. It,s far too easy to ignore customers when you only provide e mail addresses. I understand that Martin has good feedback but reputations have to be maintained... i,ve found that it,s relatively easy to attract new customers but ten times more difficult to get them back if they become disgruntled. My recent purchase and fitment of a Cobbra exhaust and Berks went perfectly and i have written very positive feedback about both the suppliers and the fitters.They will be receiving my orders for a lot more parts as i continue to modify the car. Thanks for the responses guys.
  4. Undoubtably, his supplier was at fault here because the bolts on the rears had different i.d. numbers on the heads. Very frustrating as i,m planning a Europe trip next week and wanted these fitted before i leave. I,m in the service industry so i generally make sure to post good comments when the service and quality i receive is exceptional. The reverse is of course applicable.
  5. Received my new spacers on Wednesday after a three week wait from MW Tech and went to have them fitted today. After fitting the fronts and one rear, the final one had completely the wrong size bolts and the wheel nuts wouldn,t fit !!! So, feeling a little annoyed, the whole lot had to be removed... aaaargh ! Awaiting a speedy replacement. One important lesson i have learned... don,t buy anything from anyone who doesn,t have at least a contact number and address. mrt

  21. Right... That,s telling me then ! Yup.. i found a good thread that explains how to post through bhoto*ucket.Will give it a bash over the weekend. Told you i was a ,shall we say, mature gent, cause in my youth we used smoke signals ! Regarding the bird poo.... don,t go anywhere near the coast.... the seagulls attack their reflection and you get a roof with dimples ! Get a car cover gal. roger
  22. Well if it is the problem it,s a cinch to fix.. and cheap ! Let me know if i,m correct will you ? roger
  23. Re focusing on the car ! You,re gonna spend a LOT of time polishing that car... the colour is an absolute pig if there is a spec of dust on it ! Mine was washed and waxed AT LEAST once a week sometimes twice. I swear there was more wax than metal when i sold it. You could have melted it down and bottled it as honey ! Best time to take photos.. just as the sun is going down.. shows all the aluminium bits off well. I,ve got some good pics of my blue one but haven,t worked out how to post them yet. If you manage to get to the Lakes meet i will bring the I Pad to show you them. You might also get excited about this new exhaust !!! roger
  24. Welcome Good to have a Mac am on board ! Hay hinnie. regards mrt
