Hi guys n gals,have any of you lot had any problems getting brake parts for you motors off this guy,or not getting any replies to your emails or leaving messages on his answer phone service and still not getting a reply ??????

I seem to be hitting a blank everytime.

And i ve paid for the stuff back in October last year.

 

wait until they start giving you brake judder then the replacement set give you it as well. will never buy from him again you get what you pay for

 

SOme people are lucky and get through ti him with no trouble, some people don't, it seems to be luck of the draw....... i woulod try phoning towards the end of the day if it was me....... when he shuts the machines off and can actually 'hear' the phone!

 

I spoke to Ian just now and he doesn't know of any outstanding orders from october ?? he said email him with the details and he will sort any problem out for you , he's not had any emails about any outstanding orders

 

Hi James,

PM him through the P1 site. If you do it through the message system at the top of the page you will see when he has read it. it will be in your outbox, then it will go to your sentbox when he has read it

 

he's got to go on that site to read it then though , just email him direct - ian@godspeedbrakes.co.uk

 

Check the size of anything you do buy, seems that Godspeed have some confusion with the metric system and make sure any returns are delivered personally, as they never seem to arrive at their destination if using a courier :rollseyes: leaving you out of pocket.

 

I've dealt with Ian with regards to brakes and have found him one of the most helpful guys I've met.

I bought a big brake kit 2nd hand which were in a crappy state. I asked him to fit them (which he didn't really have to considering I'd bought 2nd hand not new from him)

He bent over backwards to fit the brakes and then sort out all the subsequent problems (all related to the previous owner). Mine are fine now.

Theres only 2 of them and I think they are pretty much flat out day in day out.

 

i got great service off him and brake discs are spot on,he can be hard to get hold of though-busy man

MO - if you have sent something back to him and it didnt get there , thats surely the fault with the courier you used and not down to Godspeed ?? or am I missing something..

 

awd wrx - you're really Ian aren't you? Come on, admit it!

 

Must admit that I was thinking that Mark. Every thread with Godspeed mentioned & up he pops & he can always get hold of Ian

 

If you're bored and you look back through the bloke's posts; Godspeed do seem to be a popular theme.....

well seeing as I work 100 yds away from him I can walk into his workshop and speak to him , even when he's on a noisy machine , and yes I'll recommend his stuff because for the money no-one can touch them , and yes I have used them on many of my cars

 

i wish we had a secretary as good as you!

 

AWD_WRX,

Can you please refrain from acting as a go between, on this site between Godspeed and his customers.

Regards,
Shaun.

 

 

You tell 'em boss!

 

You've gotta be kiddin... isn't that exactly what people need..??????

 

Ron,

Ian Godney has been banned from this site, after several requests were made concerning the fact that he continued to post commercially without actually paying for this priviledge that every other trader that does is happy to.

Regards,
Shaun.

 

I can't believe that Godspeed is still in business!! He was nothing but trouble for years and years.... stay well clear!!

 

nice that stockcar is doing exactly the same thing as Ian was , giving out advice , and details and prices when asked , seems ok for him to do it ,

Shaun - I gave an answer to a question asked , nothing more ?? surely its better than going unanswered ?

 

This thread is about Godspeed letting down another customer, not Stockcar.

About time webby.

 

It's clear Ian Godney does know how eMail's work... but only when he want's to! Received the from him this morning:

 

Jon - Instead of trying to be clever , reply to him then , I think you'll find he emails loads of people per day

Gooner - I'm not knocking Stockcar in any way as I know someone who has had stuff off him and was very happy , just using it as an example as Ian was banned for dong what stockcar is doing , just seems a bit unfair one rule for one and all that

 

it does seem unfair

 

Right then, i ve just had an email reply from Ian and he s gonna sort this out for me but its just a shame its come to this,i didnt want to put up a thread to have a go at the guy its just that i was getting no joy with previous emails or phone calls and didn t know wot else to do,last resort really.I have the upgrade kit on the front of me car and there fantastic its just a shame i got let down with the rears,a lack of communication i think.If he can sort this out then i ll be a happy bunny.

 

What's unfair... I make a comment about him, he emails me and I post it here?! The guy's supposed to be banned yet he has his little spy's (awd wrx) on here feeding him info...

To be honest I'm totally not going to bother to reply to his email as I will never use any of his products EVER!!

 

unfair re godspeed being banned but others who advertise in the same way are not penalised,not having a go at stockcar as i have had tonnes of advice and products off him.
i feel awd wrx is trying to do people favours as he works next to godspeed, shame he now gets abuse for trying to be nice.
all imho

I can see that Ian G. hasn't won many friends on here but seems a bit tight to jump on an SNet member who tries to defend him.

Yet when other threads are started about poor service from well known companies, everyone and his friend jumps down the OPs throat for attempting to bad mouth said company on SNet.

Any further threads relating to Godspeed will be ignored by me in future. I don't know the full details and don't want to. He helped me out and I'll be using him again - end of.

PS - not everyone gets exceptional service from companies in the spotlight. During my 205GTI days I had the most poor service ever experienced from a tuning company in my entire life from a company considered to be the dogs doodaas. Wouldn't give them a cold yet others thought I was an A-hole for saying they treated me badly.
