Just had trading standards on the phone, They want me to write to them telling them all the problems i'v had with VIN (AID). He is being investigated for criminal fraud and they need as much info as possible. So if you have had any dealings with VIN (AID) then please E-Mail me so together we can out him for good.

I think I saw an advert for these lot in tbe back of Autocar and EVO. Is it worth phoning the advertising manager and letting them know what the company does to cars? I would hope that Evo in particular would be rather disturbed and drop the advert.

Oh, sometimes my naivity shocks me...

Haven't got the mag to hand, it's at home - will give you the contact details later as I'm not really involved with all this so can't complain with any real grounds.

Guys, I've got the current (May) EVO here and can't find any adverts for either VIN or AID.

Perhaps someone could check the last couple of months worth of EVOs....

The advert is in there somewhere near the back. I remember seeing it in one of the last two issues. From memory the name on the advert is not VIN or AID but one of these names appears in the footer where the contact address is.

Best of luck Craig
