Has anybody had dealings with these guys, whenever i've rung them they seem extremely knowledgeable and helpful not to mention friendly.

I'm looking at a trip up to them next week.


Put another 500 miles on the car!!!!!!!!

Hawkeye,these guys are the bizz, i've spent a ton of cash up there and their advice is sound, saved me a fortune in picking the right suspension as i was about to spend a few bob on avo coilovers, they showed me some forms from previous customers that were seeking compensation for failed parts, excellent service, well worth the drive up. i've also heard that AWD are also the bizz, aint never found them yet though.

Not much,

but something about the Guys at Falkland lends me their way, they seem knowledgeable about what they sell through experience not hype or sales pitches??

h-eye

i live near FALKLAND P C and i ve just been there 2wk ago. U r right those guys were helpful,but they started to do the scooby not long ago and i only saw 3 scooby at there, oh! including my one.
I m sure u ve got better idea, eg Revolution Performance motorstore at gateshead which is not far to u.

At where u r i think there should be a few more to pick for. 500mile is abit to much.........!

Have had dealings with them on a previous scooby - seemed excellent- though rumour has it that their scooby guy has recently moved to Edinburgh to work for Calder - but not sure- anyone shed light on this ?

Not that I am recommending Calder - have never used them but have heard lots about them !!! Good and bad- but mostly the later.

I know Alan wants to retire, from the talk I had with him a couple
of months back. Quite rightly 2 though, hey we all gotta kick back
n relax at some point

IMHO almost everythings for sale if the price is right.
Including most businesses, I know I`ve sold 2 in the past

BTW any1 after a manifold

I accessed this thread as I was thinking of getting some work done at Falkland Performance.

However the thread seems to have become a little childish, with uneccessary digs at a newbie, lets keep that in Muppets !
