I'm past them a couple of times a week, Sluggy.

Never been in.

If your Southport one doesn't work out, happy to have a look with/for you.

southport already fell through, he's ended it early :cry:

I'm going to Austria for the week tomorrow and am going to try and forget all about bongos for a week, it's becoming a bit of an obsession! and my wife will kill me if I spend our holiday surfing t'ebay and the like :lol:


thanks SD I may take you up on that some time :)

I looked there a couple of years ago and formed the impression that I wouldn't touch them with your bargepole let alone mine.

Hey Sluggy

After your hols, have a chat with either Wheelquick in Wigan or Ian at Jap imports in Market Drayton. Both have excellent reputations.

Best of luck with the search

When I was looking found a couple of dodgy reviews on them on t'Interweb, didn't then bother visiting. When I spoke to themon the pone they also sounded clueless and uninterested
