scooby222 Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 good luck Paul, flat four doesnt keep stock, one man band who only sells online,when you order from him he orders it in and forwards it to it you - if your lucky. i used him once and took me 3 months to get rear discs and pads, theres people on here who ordered whole engines and paid for them without ever getting them and had to take legal action to get the money back - in short dont touch them!!! RA supplies cosworth parts officially, so does roger clark and litchfield imports good work on confirming its him Blair, would hate to buy something from him by accident!

I would not normally post something like this so publically but I am so shocked by his fraudulant behaviour that I really think he needs to be stopped.

RCM and amber performance, not had any issues at all, just a first class service and only slight disappointment was I have to wait on a timing belt guide as they are due in at the end of the month but not in a rush so not worried. would recomend dealing with either mate. cheers John.
