Phoned late Tuesday to order service bits for the Bip, initial call earlier in the day to just get the list sorted, prices and a bit of info then called just before 5.30, (yes i'm THAT pain in the arse customer who calls with an order just before clocking off time), :P
Very patient and friendly service, you can tell a good parts man when you say, y'know that roundish thing that goes under that other thing that slides and he's already scribbling the part number down and asking how many you want, :D (OK, not quite that bad but you get the idea).
I'd not ordered immediately so I could go over the list and add that part i'd forgotten, (theres always something), and sure enough the following morning I got to work and thought, bugger, fuel filter, so another swift call and despite him being snowed under and sounding very harried he sorted the filter onto the order.
Arrived home from work today to find my timing belts, oil and fuel filters, o rings washers, nuts etc waiting.
Superb service, so if you read the posts on here, thank you very much!

Now just need to sort a tension tool, (and some mobil1), i know theres the other methods, the twist, the 5mm allen key, (are they dances?) but hey, call me paranoid, I want to make sure my nice new to me Duc is set properly till i've had enough practise and gotten a feel for the tension.
 
Oil arrived this morning after a courtesy call yesterday lunchtime with some advice on oil type, I was going to go for Mobil 1, (for the sole reason it was the first fully synth 15w50 I found on google), 15/50 and synth was recommended to help prevent the chrome cam follower issue.
I can be a stubborn minded pig when I need to, (believe me, i work with middle aged women, you try doing that you'll know exactly what I mean, you often need to be stubborn as they know everything, it's like starting a business with 8 clones of your mother in law), but am glad to take advice when i'm new and unsure from someone who does know.
Motul 300V was recommended, ordered some up there and lo and behold the postie dropped it off this morning.

How's that for lightning service! Wasn't expecting it till monday.

Honestly, so far everything i've heard about glasgows customer service is bang on.
Having trained teams in customer service in a previous life i know good service doesn't get the mention and praise it deserves often enough so am always happy to shout out when I get it.
 
Maybe not, but I'm sure if you ask him nicely he might be able to break the other to match, lol

I know I've been going on a bit but it's nice to get decent service these days, there are too many people with a couldn't care less attitude.
 
Been dealing with Harry since 1984 (I think).
Always does a good job.
Even for rotten old Paso's.
And sometimes Laverdas.
