someone suggested it on here a while back but I bought one from them recently after a lot of shopping around and geting fed up with a second hand one which didn't work for long.

£109 next day delivery all in. and the chap was v. pleasant on the end of the phone which makes all the difference if you ask me.

pretty good compared with the many other places I tried and worth the difference from a second hand one for piece of mind I reckon.

Got mine from here too, it was about £130 IRC but it was looking like new, been tested, and fixed the car w00t, just depends what you want to spend really.

We use a place in Leicester that does a full refurb for around £40.00

We are handing the SC's and the spare N/A's in to be done today. Will be able to collect tomorrow. We already had Tango's done a couple of months ago and so far so good

i put a aftermarket 120 amp (needed a massif one for the massif stereo) Bosch alt in the feral back in 98. it still works well.

no that was including vat and next day delivery. seems to be workin fine so far. £40 for a refurb isn't too bad either I suppose but it feels nice putting in a shiny new part (especially when most of your car is brown!).

Hiya

the tangos one was £35 to refurb, and the sc one was done for £30.
it depends on what needs replacing/fixing.

they are C&G (?automotive) ...or something...

Greens in leicester is also good, ive gone there a few times over the years and charge about the same price for a refurb.

TCB are doing recon units for £95+VAT that don't require an exchange unit. Useful if the case is cracked like mine was. Would recommend a cheap refurb tho if you can find somewhere to do it.
