MK Prices

I am in the Midlands next weekend, while there for the convenience I have ordered several parts from MK. Complete S/S exhaust system £368.00 Fuel tank incl straps, filler neck and sva cap £193.00.
Gear linkage (bec) kit £95.00. Radiator brackets and fan £60.00 + several other small bits. The question is, is this false economy, bearing in mind I am there so there is no P&P. Or could I do better shopping around (not e-bay)?

MK sell a few bits for well over what they should be, but from what you've got there, i don't think you're paying massively over the odds.

the fan and brackets sounds a bit expensive, but provided it's a kenlowe/spal type copy flat fan, it's probaby not such bad money.

the exhaust...there's not really that many options aside from going direct to martin keenan.

i reckon you could make a gear linkage for a LOT less than £95

Don't expect to pay by credit card cos i think they don't accept that kind of payment yet....i may and hope to be wrong!

Just don't want you turning up with just plastic and being told that it's cash or cheque only!
