Shame, they seem to be one of the few online retailers for this sort of thing. I was looking to buy my HT leads etc from them because I've not been able to find any others that do it by the meter. Or sell the means to make the innards of the plug caps (unless you go Amazon which I'm not keen on...)

I reckon they just grew too fast & now the classic car crash has happened, the business has run out of steam. It's a great shame, but they have been heading that way for a year or more.

You obviously aren't looking too hard. Or speaking to anyone in the industry.

I bought stuff from them late last year I think. Some cables and spark fitting.
A pity they are with some trouble bad times for general automotive industry.
