Tbh, there not that cheap. I can find most parts local same price or less or better quality for just a little more .
What they do have is greater stock & excellent delivery
The company gets an awful lot of business from here & are recommended so often that if were not getting a discount then it should stop!
Just my opinion

I agree with Jimmy...... get Simon to put a block their name, just like he did for Fleabay and "ewe" etc........ they will soon feel the drop in "Kerching" of people using them from the club, especially any new members who may not have heard of them before.
I've always managed to get the bits and pieces that I have needed locally, and not too far from their prices, and without the need to order extra bits to save the cost of p&p. |

Nobody here is asking them to give discount to EVERY club ... I'm just asking for discount for the 'Yellow Diamond Clubs' ...
The largest, independent, free-to-join group of 4x4 owners in the UK (World?  )
Word filter ... Milners <=> Meanies ?
