If we are not then I think it would be great for the club to approach them for some kind of discount.
It would certainly help with some of the decisions I have made on where to get parts and shopping around for prices.
I think Bob is good.. Had a few bits / my current car off him
Don't understand why he doesn't get himself on RTOC though

He used to be on rtoc!
he used to get a bit of stick on here though as he got snowed under with orders & could'nt cope,a few members from abroad claimed to have not received there goods! one was for over £1000!!
maybe people will forgive & forget? who knows?
Well for the records I have ordered about 5 times and some big purchases in a matter of months and they have all been spot on.
Special parts not listed on the site - next day delivery with promt emails.
Stupidly ordered something on a big order - refund with no questions or problems.
Top service! Common bob you got to sneakily reading this
I asked the question "why isn't he on here" and he said it's more like a chat room.
I can to some degree understand why some traders are not on here, as if they do something controversial, or people just generally don't like how they operate, it can turn into a bit of a slagging match. I have seen it happen with K-Tec, and they even mentioned that it is the reason they don't come on RTOC much anymore.
At the end of the day, it's all just opinions, and we're all entitled to them
never had a problem great bloke and loads better to pay cash
chat room? if you have ever rang bob at cgb, you will be well aware of the fact that he loves to have a chat....hes a nice chap
yeah hes always fixed me up in the past! just find some of his prices abit steep.... good contact 2 get u out of the s**t!!! when i blew my engine he had another there that i could here runnin. sure alot more people would go2 him if they had some sort of club discount.
Don't get me wrong, I have bought a lot from him and can't complain but, thats what he said when I asked if he ever came on here. Like Bric said sometimes the likes of K-tec get shot down.
i think we all agree, uncle bob`s the man

I agree - Bob @ cgb is a top bloke
I have turned up out of the blue at his workshop at least twice in the last 8 weeks or so and got sorted. Once when my dipped headlight relay gave up and left me in the lurch - didnt even charge me.
He has always made time to sort me out and have a chat. I have always found his prices to be more than reasonable - in fact have been undercharged on occaisions.
A discount for RTOC members would be an idea seeing as we must be his best customers
wheni ordered my bits i asked about a discount for rtoc.
and he baiscally said what nayls said baiscally " as he got snowed under with orders & could'nt cope" but think there was personal reasons etc for that.
always been great to deal with for me. ordered bumper and alternator and fixing brackets yesterday night and they should be here 2moro, cant grumble with that!
Back in the day when he 1st started he did have a few probs manily due to the fact it was just him doing it all by himself so got alot of requestes for parts coming on since then he has taken on staf and I have ordered alot of stuff from him and always had a top serivce he gets the thumbs up from me and I think RTOC do get some kind of discount but you will have to email or speak with him direct to get this discount.
was just pointing out why he may not be on here
problem with company's on rtoc is that they all have something to sell (obviously!)
they'l say it will do this & that,adding this & that power but most of us know that it wont,so we qusestion it (putting it kindly
also they are all out to make a profit,nothing wrong with that as that's just business,but we most of the time know the source of the parts so we go direct & then have a moan at them for being more expensive.
ive just brought a oil pump refurb kit of him on ebay.
