Hi All

Ive been meaning to say hi to you all for last couple of weeks after joining but getting my Exxy on the road is taking a bit of time! No surprise! So Hello to you all, great forum with so much info, im nearly in heaven..well you know!

Anyway during my quest to get a new clutch master cyclinder I rang one of the advertisers in the club BulletIN. X19Files to be exact.

Although they had said part the ladies attitude to me when I asked nicely about Club members discount, was not 'good' and so I didn't buy. She stated that she was nothing to do with the club anymore so would not be giving any discount to us. When I said your advert doesn't say anything about that, it was just tough luck, its an old advert! She did confirm though that they were actually going out of business.... :shock:

So please be warned if you do go buy from them, don't expect any discount. They also trade on Ebay under 'First Choice Italian Car Spares'.

I Have always bought parts from both Steve @ Alternative Autos and Sue & Steve @ X1/9 Files and both have been excellent over the years. Eurosport are good too.

I'm surprised you had a bad experience with X19 Files. I have always found them very helpful and obliging.
