I have now banned the OP. We will not tolerate members ripping off each other.

I have sent him two PMs, and he has read them but not replied. I will give him until tomorrow and will ban him from the forum if nothing changes. It won't get you your money back. But it will stop this from happening to any of our members in future.

I will send him a PM. Hopefully, I will get a reply. If not, I will have to consider banning him. 

Don't forget your AA/RAC Card.
