Hi guys,

You may remember early in the year I bought a 1306 from you.

I am not very happy about it. It is effectively unusable without a lot of remedial work.

Because of markings it had on it I am convinced you deliberately sent me a reject.

Also because of the time/distance/cost factor it is not practical to return it. This is why I think you chose to unload this on me to New Zealand..

I concluded therefore that any recompense was unlikely, but I didn’t want any of my GT40 Forum friends to get caught the same way so posted a warning in the “Consumer Watch” Section of that forum.

There is also some discussion on my build thread from Post # 77 onwards

Kiwi scratchbuilt

The guys there have urged me to draw the matter to your attention. The forum has been a big assistance to me generally so in deference to them, I send you this email.

I will publish this email on both threads, as I will any reply that I may receive.

Thank you,

Russ Noble

We'll see what happens.......

Cheers
