The mobile number given is the one from Spikies Web Site Here so looks like you could be right. Anyone local able to visit and check it out?. Update: I have sent Spike an e-mail to try and clarify the situation.

Rodders. I did note that and actually pointed out that I was trying to ascertain if he was closing and thus my enquiry fell outside the E-bay statement. Gozz. All I can say is you'd better get her out before 'Pinky' finds her or your 'parts' could be posted on 'For Sale' !!

Fom what I can understand from a scorpio owner I met today, Rob P22 RAF, who recently purchased his new ride from Spikie, is he's having a clear out to make some room. He is having new wheel fitting equipment installed in one of his barns and other stuff as well. I understand he is finding business a bit tough at the moment but his prices, as some of you know, are a bit high, but for all intents and purposes, he is staying put.

Thank you Lee. That at least puts things into perspective. Shame HE couldn't have replied to that effect.

Not being one to have a 'dig', or 'twist a knife', but the last purchase I made from him was an ABS Controller, which he assured me was tested and working. I can't remember how much he charged, but when I received it (well-packed) I mounted it on the car and was still getting the dreaded light. I then took the wise option of sending it to our 'local' expert Tomp' who then informed me after a few days it had the naughty 1095 code. It was expertly repaired and returned by this fellow, and now works! I didn't bother contacting the original supply, but will be wary in future. Peter

I was over at Spikies a couple of days ago (he's only a few hundred yards from where I live) & I can assure everyone that he is still in business Steve now has a tyre fitting bay with a fitting machine & wheel balancing machine (had a couple of tyres from him recently) & he's as good as any other local tyre fitter. He's got a lot of Scorpios (10 plus) that are too good to break, so that's probably why he is mass selling

I was on there this morning looking for a #1 diesel injector - now, as you say, it's unavailable. £95 for the injector - I think I'll pass......

I thought they were seen heading north on a big transporter bearing the cross of St Andrew and following an old Transit towing another on an A frame
