03/10/2023

A message for our international customers.....
Due to Royal Mail suspending overseas deliveries due to a Cyber Attack, we have stopped shipping orders overseas.
We will still take the orders and pack them ready for the resumption of services by Royal Mail.
We can ship via UPS if it is urgent and you are willing to pay the difference in P&P. If that is the case for you, place your order as normal then email me asking for a UPS shipping quote.

I've added the Mk1 Rear Shock Bottom Nuts to our inventory today....
03/11/2021
So I am experimenting with processing, packing and posting orders out during the night. This is
because our electricity day rate has nearly doubled in the last month. The night rate has also
increased but it is slightly less than our old day rate. As such orders made during the day will be
posted the following day (well night, after midnight that is). You can still phone during the day.

OK, I've had a good old re-jig of the price points & charges. Orders over £50.00 will still get free UK P&P and I've discounted the top end European & World Wide cost to make that more equal for our overseas customers. I've put the purple arrows in so you can see that I've discounted the top 4 price points so you in effect get the same treatment as UK customers.
24/09/2020
Hello there, we have had to increase our International Delivery Charges after Royal Mail raised them on the 1st of September this year.
It's the first time we are raising the postal prices since we started in 2006. But this price rise from
Royal Mail is significant and we can't take the hit. I might need to tinker with it a bit to get a bigger
spread of Price Points.

Due to suppliers increasing their prices, year on year, I will have to increase mine as of January 1st 2015. I'm sorry to do it but I've not put my prices up for over 5 years. Alas I can no longer continue to take the hit from suppliers.
So get your orders in before the new year and save a few quid!

Well, the party season is over now till the summer so I will try and give the site a bit more of my time.
It's interesting to see how far flung our cars can be, I am going to be featuring these cars on this splash and the first to grace our page actually is not that far flung but has got to be the rustiest ever! (I know it's a MK2, but hey!) Chris said that there were still some good bits to be had from these 2 lust buckets
Is that a dead tiger in the foreground or some funky seat cover :)
Looks like the strut has popped through on this one and there aint even an engine in
there pushing down!
Thanks to Chris from Hampshire for sending in these photo's Here's his WIP Mexico:
