I've spoken to him a few times, last Friday was the last time but it can take allot of phone calls to catch him -but he usually calls me back.

I was with him on Tuesday, trying to sort my coolant leak. He gets a LOT of phone calls and obviously can't answer all of them when he's working on someone's car. I know he tries to call people back though.

Peter has never supplied the delimiters, he buys them himself from Twosrus. He's only ever bought 4 or 5 from me. They are supplied by me through twosrus (apologies to admin, I'm not trying to pimp my wares).

That wasn't supplied by Pete either Simon, the address on the back of the box is in Nottinghamshire, not Yorkshire. Why does everyone get the idea Pete supplies the delimiters???

Are folk not contacting him for the order, it's Peters number on the website? If so I can understand the assumption?

e.g. I bought a Link ECU from Patrick at Rogue the other day but they get them from Thor (Uk distributor), but the supplier for me is Rogue.

..or have I got that bit wrong.

I used to buy them from you and supply them to my customers, but since going VAT registered 18 months ago, there's no point as i have to charge them out at 17.5% more than my customer buying them direct. So i send my customers direct to the store so as to not be accused of not acting in my customers' interests.

I'm not having a go at you Pete. I just can't understand why people thought they were your delimiters.
