Yep, dealt with them last year. Bought quite a lot of stuff and bits for my TDi conversion and some other mods.

Required bank transfer etc, generally quite good to deal with. One missing shipment which took a while to sort out, but they know their Syncro stuff!

Interesting.

I asked a VW dealership how much their VC's were & was told around £1100. When I told them I'd heard of them new at about half that he said it wouldn't be OME & would be sub-standard.

Definitely Bull! No offense to dealerships shops or parts-people, but how of them can make a statement like that with any data to back it up? Did they test it? Many $tealerships and $hops sell and use the same less expensive parts others use.... just for more money. :wink:
