doesnt matter whether its local or not, only need few small part/s that can be posted - seriously got the "hump" with roh hale marine in portsmouth, the old boy in there is a totally unhelpfull, rude miserable old fart that needs a good slap and more interested in his ******* pastie than making a sale on 3 occasions - i wont go on, shame cos the younger chap you works there is spot on but hey thats done it for me , not having my money!

so yeah any way anyone got a plug please?!

I dunno what parts ya need, but don't feck around wasting any time with dealers (There are some gooduns, but there's a lot of baduns too, as you've found).
Call hank at American Marine Imports, 01789 491673
He has the largest stock in the UK ready to ship by post, the same day, and you won't find cheaper. Tell him Matt Yorke gave you his details.
