Just getting bored mate had enough of it

 

[Knuckles]

 

[DannyR]

Are you getting bored of it or are the company doing it dragging it on? Would be unlike them to take longer than needed on a job

 

[jamier27]

Noooooooooooooooooooo

 

[batesey]

come on steve, why not pass it on to scoff to finish the wiring? ktec are taking the piss now

 

[jesus]

Noooooooooooooooooooo

This :dapprove: you can't give up now!

 

[JHead]

the only reason they are taking so long to do it is surely because they are not worried about losing your custom, or have no time restraint to do it in... put some pressure on them. it will get doen or you will end up having someone else do it.

 

[Scrooge]

So k tec are doing the last bits to this car?

 

[w33 brl]

Mon steve get the finger out mate

It's KTec, they don't give a f**k!

Rather than simply bash ktec which is all too easy, what is the cause of te delay? Are they simply not working on it as they haven't agreed a timescale? Or is it because a price was agreed that they would do it "as and when" to save costs?

 

[stevo172-RWD]

It's a difficult puzzle to work on and k-tec are doing their best to put it back together along with the additions I keep buying /adding .
