Won't be long until he's a god on there.
Then a little while after that he'll go bust again and run off with peoples money (or cars) *again*.
Allegedly.
The man's a w4nker.

Not if i have anything to do with it. I have been a member on there for a while and have taken every chance to educate its members on his true colours. There was a thread on there last week (which has been pulled) which turned into a full on slanging match after a member accused him of ripping him of to the tune of 8 grand. The lutton cowboy suggested he is closing down, this time for good.
As you know Grant from our convos i have had more than a few threats from this guy including death threats and thank my lucky stars for members on this forum for talking me out of using this joker to turbo my ZR (the guy who offered in place of mine is the spanish guy whoes car went "missing") so i have good reason to slate him.

I really dont understand the guy. Ive seen at least one mk3 conversion that his lot have done that was a good job, and no scotch locks! If they can do the work why not continue to do it properly and build a good rep? Why keep ripping people off and having to do a bunk?
Surely the Rover tuning community isnt THAT big, hes going to run out of clients in a minute if he keeps pi5sing people off. He tried to sell me a rather beaten up looking 420 'turbo' a year or two back, but he wanted to much for it and there was talk of black jeans so i politely said no thanks..
PS is it wise to call him a kiddy fiddler on an open forum? If he isnt you dont want to give him a reason to attack you.

Because it was the work of his one employee who cared IIRC, who was treated like crap and buggered off.
I've not been around half as long as some of you lot and i've seen enough ripoffs from him.

He tried threats once before ... that didnt get him anywhere either.
I dont succumb to threats easily.
However in the cold light of day if admin/mods wish me to edit what i have put then i will.
But the guys still a C U Next Tuesday and i'll always stand by that.

I take it the person your talking about in this thread makes a nasty habit of poor workmanship and generaly taking peoples hard earned money, but who is he? an individual or are they a company?
I joined to this site to read about a bubble turbo conversion and have not posted really before, but this particular thread has got me curious and i dont want to be one of the many people he has ripped off.
I get the the feeling this site is a friendly and have never really read comments like the ones in this thread before, so this guys F@@ked a fair few people off me thinks!

You could say that. Unfortunately, if you try to put the initials of his company on here the swear filter kicks in and gives you RSM.
Someone posted a link to his profile on bebo to which I replied but it looks like it's been removed.
Follow the link in the top message and have a look for yourself.

It came to R S M, and on inspection, we found that the ecu wiring had been incorrectly connected and had caused the sprintex ecu to burn out.
Sprintex supplied another ecu, but to be fair, the wiring was also messy
That coming from georgie porgey... must have been bad lol.
Who deleted my thread with the bebo link? could have pm'd me

Didn't the bebo profile said he'd lost his family ?
Perhaps he'd like to look under the rock he came from..

Nah Adam he got kicked out. I think it had something to do with as large sum he owes PTS.
Last i heard he had moved up north somewhere but the guy is practically bankrupt again. There was talk ( and i am sure he confirmed it) on ZS central before the thread got pulled that he was shutting up as a rover butcher and going to mug some other group of poor individuals.

lol, I remember on another forum he claimed the CID would arrest anyone who badmouthed him
Is the site owner/operator personally responsible for the opinions of the posters?
Bear in mind that to be libel an accustation must be untrue
