[Rovernet] A shameless plug

[Vern Inkspot]

Just pressed reply, didn't bother to write anything. I was just going to say that sounded like a good experience.

Yours

I'm sending this post to perhaps remind some of you, as well as RAVE about their service.   I'm not sure why Geoff Unwin and his company slipped my mind, as I had been going round and round and round and round and round with JR Wadhams, trying to sort out getting a full stainless exhaust system for my 3500S (large bore for V8 with manual).  Despite repeated apologies when they did respond, there were literally months before I would get a response.

Not only did he always respond within 24hs (allowing for U.S./U.K. time difference) to every one one of my emails about procuring the exhaust, but, as usual, he was a wealth of correct information (unlike Wadhams).   Once we got the order sorted out on 1/13, he informed me he would ship it Monday 1/17.   It arrived at my house TODAY!.    Are you kidding me?!?!?!?!?!?!?, 3 days to ship from the U.K.?????    I can't even get a letter posted in Denver, CO to another city in Colorado in that time frame.

Of course Geoff has no control over this, and I finally bit the bullet because waiting a year hoping the costs would come down never occurred, especially as the pandemic rages on].

The cost of the exhaust (manufactured by Double S; which I believe is the same supplier to Wadhams) was $190.00 LESS!!!!!
