Got quoted $2700 for Vertini with no tyres... Hope you get your money back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they had quite a bit of customers, what was the reason they went bust, overhead for their pretty large garage?I have been there a few times for tyres over the years and got my rims for my FG from them. I didn't like going there anymore because of the bad range of tyre brands they had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it's the one in Hallam if I'm correct... But if it is the shop I don't think it was due to being cheap... Actually owner of business was never there to actually see what was going on.

They found in my favour and have refunded the money. A very good result and a little lucky. I will be more careful in the future. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
