Hi,
Maybe they got pissed off with all the angry people on the phone and shut up shop? *surprised*

CORRECT! *frown*

I Wonder why peeps still deal with this company, when there 99% peeps have BAD dealings with them.


there are many people on this forum who will get the job done on time and for a lot less and there engines produce the same results

it hurts me but.... its got to be said.

No comment really, never had any dealings with Morespeed. Seems strange, their products seem to have a good reputation. Is it just a staff problem? Obviously lack of communitcation with customers must be hurting their business.

There are Morspeed hardcore supporters out there who cant fault Morspeed and its them to jump in quick and put you straight if you have had bad experiencies with them. The blind leading the blind.

To this day i still think about oli nmt on TMF who paid for and waited for well over 6 months for his 970 based 16v, excuse after excuse. Oli was tragicaly killed in a car accident two weeks before Christmas gone. He never got to see the engine, never mind get it in the car, even though he could have enjoyed at least 3 months of it. That my friends, takes the piss!!

The reason he has hardcore supporters is because these customers get favortism and their jobs get done first and sent out.

I've seen this first hand.

It's a shame the business isn't a success, Simon is very tallented with the grinder, and he is good value for mone too.

Phil, I realise it's a trek from where you are but it may be worth driving down and visiting them in person.

EDIT: Corrected my very bad English.

I've had my share of nightmares with this company too. However in the interest of balance the web address seems to work for me:
http://www.mspd-engines.co.uk/intro%20page.htm
(although the morspeed.co.uk no longer links through)

Apologies for this thread as my intention was not to open old wounds of our experiences with Morspeed. I think it has been well documented before and my own experience has been negative in terms of time taken and quality of work.
Good luck to those of you with outstanding parts.
In particular, I wondered why the web site appeared not to work for me as they always seemed to keep it up to date (when they werent answering the phone to customers maybe.......) Looks like the link above works so we can all breath a sigh of relief.

Nick.

i dont think that another thread about morespeed adds value to the site at all, it well documented that people have had problems in the past and this imo lets people have a dig when they have had no personal experiance with them just hearsay

hardly the same buddy, i am not saying that people who have had good/bad experiences should not put the views across but there are several threads with the same old things being said when the problems that have arisen are clearly documented on the site, the problem with posts like this is Mr 1 poster with no experiance of morespeed can jump on the bandwagon and i personally think that makes the site look bad rather than morespeed
