Well, I have to differ, he did give me some help, but there wasn't any need for the sarcasm really. I know all about google, yet I have never actually found it as useful as asking folk who actually buy stuff.

I just had my first order from a this newsgroup's regular Richard Watson @
Paddocks and Craddocks are NOT necessarily the cheapest because the are the biggest, and their service (and knowledge of their products) to be frank is quite often rubbish!

For a once sentance long questions like Nige's, google is a pretty good tool. If he'd said "Ive been looking for somewhere to buy some bits for my landy, has anybody got any experience of xxx or yyy", then that would have been a better question.
You have to show some initiative for yourself. I'd just spent a large amount of the week dealing with lots of people asking me stupid questions as they are too idle/stupid to think for themselves (not meaning people here). Sorry!
Does it work in Opera yet?. never used to. Not got opera on this box to try it with.
I wasnt meaning to be that sarcastic, tis hard to get meaning across sometimes only with text. Did intent to point out google though.
Wholehearted agreement to that, my first parts order went to craddocks cos they answered the phone early in the morning for a query before work. However they refused to believe I was right with which part I wanted so sent me the wrong one. Richard (

Hey no worries Tom.
Depending on the parts and their availability I use Paddocks (coz they're not too far as is) DLS, Craddocks, Kaid, Discoparts, Morleys in Derby and if I am really desperate the local LR dealer. While on holiday greenlaning in Devon I used The 4x4 store in Exeter. having to replace some bearings a stub axle and the brake pads in a field. They had everything in stock and were well priced.
No one is in any particular order and most gave time and their expert advice.

To reply, remove my appendix
Nope, not even when Opera is set to identify as Internet Explorer.
On or around Fri, 02 Apr 2004 18:54:50 +0100, Tom Woods enlightened us thusly:
tried Opera - I wasn't overly impressed, it might be that its faster if you ante up for the one without ads. but all the claims about it being the fastest browser on earth and that didn;t seem to me to be particularly justified, and in the end I went back to netscape.
...but then Mozilla got better. Initial results from Netscape 6 were that it was rubbish, and the bank website wouldn't play ball with it. Mozilla
1.0 or 1.1 was similar looking but worked better, now it's up to 1.6. If you want a smaller version the fire-thingy one is good, the main reason I don't use that is that it doesn't support different user profiles.I like the Mozilla project for the fact that its open-source. Granted, I CBA to learn how to write bits, but I like the idea that I could, if I so wished.

I'd like to second that too :-)

I'll third it. All the bits for my cam change were promptly despatched to Warren's place, were present and correct and he even knew that it wouldn't be possible to do it with the engine and heads in situ. Warren proved him wrong of course*
Good prices and very knowledgeable. Also happy to admit to the things he couldn't get for a few weeks rather than spin out with excuses.
*he had to remove the air conditioning system to prove him wrong, but hey...MotorsForum website is not affiliated with any of the manufacturers or service providers discussed here. All logos and trade names are the property of their respective owners.
