Yeah that's the top qaulity. I only pointed it out as I ordered some today lol

Yeah that price was for TRW, national discs and I believe ADL they were within a £1 of each other. We dont deal with Pagid I think about 4 different suppliers and about 6 different types of discs is enough, too much choice sometimes
the only problem i can see with brake discs, oil, starters, alts etc is the postage costs to receive and then to send out thus loosing the saving?
spoken to the sticker place today. side decal replicas are no problem and would be at a good price providing i can supply them with a scanned in version on pdf or similar formats, their scanner could only do the wing and qtr decals. once i have it on file they can provide all the colour schemes from the one copy, its just a case of colour matching the ones on cars first time round and keeping notes of the codes. any other colour schemes for example light grey/orange on mine would be possible too but at a small additional charge due to it being a one off. no prices as yet as still need to contact some companies regards the scanning as that cost would have to be absorbed too.
same applies for any other stickers, batches of any colour rtoc logos etc. i can get these made up using existing ones to keep costs down as they dont have to design them from scratch. window stickers can be the inside or outside type, although outside are cheaper.
they also offer various styles of clothing, prices do vary due to the initial cost/quality of the clothing prior being labelled up, again i can take in existing items so they can offer similar/better quality. names on the back, photo's of your car on the front etc can be added also at an additional cost/turn around time, but at this stage i think it will just complicate things. could get others made, like the renault for life stickers
the place also works in with another company who they can put me in touch with who deals more so with car related items, so we could get the likes of the rtoc tax disc holders, rtoc number plates, key rings etc. again there are variations of price dependant on styles but i think keeping a std format makes it easier.
while i was there i remebered they do other things, again i would have to provide a sample and would have to be ordered in batches but they do lexan in a range of colours and thickness so they can offer sets of windows, again for my 5 they could do orange, or smoked black versions and for the fussy buggers they can add on the corner logos, qtr window black surround, and rear window orange heaters (although he'd have to do a trial one due to the very thin lines). i didn't discuss prices as they vary on colours etc.
they are very keen to help and get the detail perfect, and still do items at a good price providing i do the leg work.
so all thats needed, once i've sorted a company to scan and convert the files, is some members to provide the samples
Well done Chris, like I said earlier, think keeping it simple and to unavailable bits is the best idea.
Will help if you setup an account but at the end of each month you get hidden charges that will need to be added in somewhere. Fuel supplement etc. Bubble wrap and cardboard. Members who live in the Highlands and Islands there are extra charges applied by the courier companies. These all need to be taken into consideration. VAT is a killer at the end of it all.
You can use a pay as you go but the time taken to process several items each day is too long and they over charge on longer items.
Hope this is useful
i was going to order my yearly fleece for winter as they are awsome quality

What it possible to sell new soft clutch conversion kits for the R5?
If so I would be interested in one
All the parts used to be available from Volvo for about £25.
RTOC would have to buy them and then charge postage on top.
https://www.rtoc.org/boards/showthread.php?t=4732
I wrote this article 11 years ago and updated 7 years ago so I don't know if all the part numbers are still the same.
That should help you get what you want.
Is the club out of stock of the Volvo M12 head bolts? I'm desperate for a set or the 5 won't make blyton
No longer stocking as took a few years to sell a batch. I sent the last set in error to big Steve raider if you give him a try
i know dale bigfoot is now in charge of the club shop id like to know if theres anymore RTOC polo shirts etc being made for the shop thx mick
What colour did you have in mind?
They also probably take years to sell. If we got just a few in they price would be high.
I have all the stuff to start sending them out. Really the quicker this lot can go the quicker new stuff can come in, but like said normally takes ages to sell the quantity which need to be purchased to make it cheaper for people
surely things like t shirts and polo shirts sell quite quick dont they???
id need a BIG size too
You would have thought so like the fleeces and sweatshirts coming up to winter would go well but really until majority of those go which is taking up a lot of space won't look at t-shirts to then store as well. In few weeks will start seeing more items on there plus promoting items like the tow eye covers which got a nice collection sitting here
Hi does the 20% discount work on all things in the shop or is that not working anymore?
Even the carb overhaul kits?
Would not work for me the other day will try again
ive tried polo shirts and t shirts and it said no stock
Just had a play around, looks like its not working clothing or parts, I will take a look through the options later on and see what is wrong with it. As code seems correct just wont do anything to the parts which I have in the basket.
i thought the carbs kits were already discounted but another 20% off sounds better
Any hoodies done yet mate?
Yeah, interested in some rtoc threads hoody or fleece etc
Once we get the discount working all is good to go for ordering them
still no polos and t shirts, not in stock?? only fleeces in stock??
Fleeces and Sweatshirts at the moment, once stock has been reduced in this I will look at getting in t-shirts but not planned for time being.
thanx dale polos and t shirts i think could sell well as alot of new members have joined and they aint been in the club shop for ages
Does anybody know chest sizes for fleeces as one mans extra large is another mans medium.
Thanks
I will check out the make of them and do some research on sizes for you. I will take a look at the extra large as that's what I normally go for and see how they normally compare to rest of items which I have of that size.
For some reason I can't get logged in to my shop account to buy a carb overhaul kit.
I've requested a new password but no emails received. Can anyone advise please.

Sorted now. Just created another account
