Getting hold of MK?
Harrodbear86 - 10/9/16 at 02:07 PM

Hi Guys,

I dont know if anybody could help me at all. I am trying to get hold of MK regarding some parts, but havent been able to get hold of them for the past 10 days. Does anybody know if they have closed for a holiday or anything?

Any help would be appreicated.

Cheers

Danny

Have your got Dannys number?

He has put it on here on various threads


Harrodbear86 - 10/9/16 at 02:29 PM

Hi,

Yes I've tried the land line and also the mobile number from the website, assuming that's the right one. I've emailed and sent a message on here today, so fingers crossed he gets back to me soon.

Might be worth double checking the mobile though.

His number is in that thread

What car have you got now?I remember you did have the very nice green MK R1 my m8 built a while back


Harrodbear86 - 10/9/16 at 02:46 PM

That's great thanks mate.

I sold the green one of year and instantly regretted it, so I purchased one from here about a month ago.

2009 MK with 5VY (F/I) R1 engine this time. Really chuffed with it, currently having some work done to tidy it up.

Looking forward to getting it back in a couple of weeks.

What have you got?

Mac1 with a R1 carbed engine,pics in my archive.

Was nice the green one,was after going in that I decided I would have a BEC one day.

Presume you've seen Steve that built the green ones new one he's built?

Hope you haven payed for the parts!


Harrodbear86 - 10/9/16 at 04:13 PM

Ok cool, il have a look.

No I haven't seen his new one, il check that out as well.

I'm afraid I have paid for the parts, I was also looking to order some new wheels and tyres.

Oh dear

Steves mk is orange and white with a zx12r engine,pic with mine in my archive

I'd seriously consider looking elsewhere for your new wheels and tyres.

It seem to be problem after problem with Danny lately and not even any reason as to why is given. Customers will very soon get fed up of having to wrestle him to get parts and they'll use some other company who actually care about the customers who are sending them their hard earned money.


Harrodbear86 - 11/9/16 at 07:52 AM

Managed to get hold of him yesterday. Any suggestions on wheels and tyres, looking for a set of Compomotive CXRs, just needed some advice on best size/et, so thought Danny would be the best guy to chat with.

Cheers guys.

Have a look at Midland Wheels, aka JBW

Or give MNR a ring.


Matt21 - 11/9/16 at 01:10 PM

Even demon tweaks are cheaper than MK!

13" CXRs with R888R £900 (£960 at MK)


gaz_gaz - 11/9/16 at 01:19 PM

Compomotive are back and business and selling CXRs so give them a shout.


adithorp - 11/9/16 at 04:09 PM

Compomotive are pretty good to deal with direct.


Harrodbear86 - 11/9/16 at 05:20 PM

Cool, thanks for the advice. Il give Compomotive a call tomorrow.


Harrodbear86 - 15/9/16 at 06:26 AM

Hi guys,

Thought I would keep everyone in the loop. Danny called me back on Saturday and told me it must be a problem with couriers, as to my parts not being delivered.


Been trying to get hold of him since then and surprise surprise no answer. Although he did call me...but it was in his pocket, phoned him straight back and didn't get an answer.
Getting pretty fed up now, as they have relieved me of £300 and still nothing!!!!

Anybody know where to get a decent rear diffuser from as I'm going to order parts from somewhere else and then try and get my money back.

Cheers

Pretty sure the MK diffuser is exactly the same as the GBS one

Beware, the "it must be a problem with couriers" might be a lie from Danny. I guess he didn't send anything...


Harrodbear86 - 19/9/16 at 08:12 AM

Yeh I get that impression. Still no answer on either of the phone numbers, or replies to emails.

Think I'm just going to have to reorder parts from MNR and then hope I get my money back from MK at some point.


Toprivetguns - 19/9/16 at 08:33 AM

Did you purchase the parts with a credit card?
Might be easier to chase your money through your bank - credit cards offer
you a great level of purchase protection.


Harrodbear86 - 19/9/16 at 08:39 AM

That's a good point actually, I think I did. I will double check that now.

Thank you.
