In my haste to purchase a ticket for this event, knowing that they were selling out fast, I didn't at the time download the PDF.

For those interested in track sessions. I haven't heard anything back from Combe after my prompt last week. I would take this as a sign exclusive track sessions are unlikely and to group book a couple of sessions as much as you can! This is advertised on their site ..... Screenshot_20240215_145424_...

Re: Fake Receipts

You appear to be misinterpreting what I say Talking to them as I outlined is similar to your LBA but recording a conversation tends to get more information. You don’t have to follow the LBA route but should show an attempt at resolution as I suggested You don’t have to prove the documents were there...

You don’t have to prove anything to issue a summons ”The dealer is seeking legal advise,” I assume that’s by email or similar ( I also doubt they really are ) It usually comes down to how far your prepared to push it.

Re: Fake Receipts

A few questions
What date did you buy the car
How many miles have you done
How much was it
How much have you spent fixing it
Is the fake quickfit address close to the garage
Is the car ok and fit for purpose apart from what you have outlined and are you now happy with the vehicle

I seem to have been added to the annual dinner list, probably based on my post above but I cannot confirm or otherwise until the location is known.
Neither can I Chris but they need to work on figures when contacting hotels etc
We always use higher figures initially

Re: Looking at a few RX-8s

My unpolular opinion is that 5.5 bars is f...ed and not close to a rebuild. Also,once you open a 5 bar engine there will be nothing good left in it to rebuild. An engine classed as ok is minimum 6.5 bars,anything under that you need to start saving,but that is just me. On the other hand if the body...
