AlexGTAdv Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 Would just like to add to this thread, having waited nearly two months for the car i recieved the car with a non working rad fan, damaged gear linkage and am having to wait for the race spec rocker cover that i have already paid for to be sent down to me and fit myself. So thinking to myself that nothing else about this situation could get any worse i recieved an email today from tm developments saying that they had left a few things off the bill: engine and gearbox oil, head skim and crank polish. I am expected to pay an extra £130 as they forgot to add this! What the fuck! I recieved no kind of compensation for the delay and inconvienence of not having the car, and missing JAE!!!! And now they think i should pay for something that was never discussed in the quote! Wouldnt you think that paying nearly the same amount that i paid for the car in the first place that they could put some fucking oil in it! And who builds an engine and doesn't skim the head!? Even i know that this is standard practise! I felt badly treated in the first place but this i find insulting! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 thats gutting mate is it tm-developments that do the work on it or not? cause I've never heared anything this bad about them before there normally rather good lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AlexGTAdv Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 Yeah they did the work, its such a shame, i really wanted this to be a pleasurable experience but its turned out to be a nightmare! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Whenever you part with alot of money you want to know your going to enjoy the end product!Shame about that mate I am sure Dave and co will try and resolve it best they can and mantain their reputation Hopefully you will have a nice smile when you get the rocker cover and everything sorted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
