Andrew Turner Carbs

[mowerman]

I`ve recently sent my CD150s away to Andrew Turner to be reconditioned, I have used him in the past and found the quality and workmanship top class, however......... I cannot get hold of him!!!  Left 2 voice mail messages and his inbox is now so full it wont accept anymore, no other form of contact link of the website so I`ve resorted to snail mail.  Does anyone elso know if he`s still around or ill or anything :-/ Has he attended any of the shows (stafford?) recently? As I said at the beginning his work is top quality, it would be a real shame if he`s no longer around  :(

Spoke to him by phone maybe 6 weeks ago, I think he had his usual spot at Stoneleigh.
Cheers,
Bill.

No message on the answerphone to say he`s away! Strange really, just have to see if snail mail gets a reply.

I spoke to him the week before last. Funny thing the subject was this forum, turns out AT is addicted to reading it, but never posts.

cheers

Had contact with Andrew Turner today, been away on his hols. Should get my carbs back next week sometime ;D

good to hear everything is ok with Andrew!!!

He's a one man band and you often see questions and posts asking "is Amdrew Turner still around?" and of course he is, just not answering emails or the phone :-) I guess he's busy making all those pretty carb sets :-)

saw his stand at stoneleigh ....impressive stuff 8)

Saw him at Stoneleigh. He's done stuff for me in the past. No hesitation in recommending him. Top bloke, very genuine and always polite, irrespective of whether someone is blindly trying to teach him to suck eggs. Geezer at Stoneleigh was telling him his Triumph had fuel vapourisation issues, so could he fit an intercooler to help it run cooler(!)  :B Andrew's responce was as always, polite but knowledgeable none-the less.
Nicest aspect to his charecter is that he doesn't go-in for running down traders, irrespective of how he himself may have been treated by them, but he is still honest in the information he imparts.
A one man(and wife) band. He must be like an octopus in his work shop, i'm not surprised he sometimes is missing in action! :D

Hi everyone, this is my first post so please be gentle. I can be difficult to get hold of especially now that I've removed the phone from the workshop.When she's here Carole answers the phone and she is perfectly capable of quoting for jobs, looking up prices for parts etc. Carole also deals with all the post and admin so she's the one to ask if your carbs/ cheque have arrived or been dispatched. We have a Bt answer phone and if you leave a name and number I normally get back within a couple of hours. We try to tell as many customers as possible when we are going on holiday but obviously some get missed - sorry mowerman. By the way we were skiing in France not sunning ourselves in the Caribean !!  dave's right I'm on this forum most days and really enjoy it.  Andrew
