Spoke to BAZ at mk asked if they were going broke, he said rumours are unfounded all thats happened is Danny has left, so its business as usual which
is good news for me as i have just bought an MK indy

Glad to hear it
I suggest changing the thread title as it currently implies that they are going under..anyone that sees that but does not enter the thread may well
tell others about the rumor....
Same here, I remember when Indy first came out, quite a few years back now, they have spent a lot of money and a lot time getting it to where it is today, so I hope it keeps going on strong
What do they mean by business as usual? still taking months to send items and ignoring phone calls and emails?
Or are they actually going to make an effort now he's left?
Might be an idea for someone at the "new" MK to put a post up explaining the situation and maybe start building some bridges?

No but any potential kit purchaser generally ends up on this site and there's threads saying they have gone under, threads saying they
haven't. Loads of threads detailing issues with customer service and workmanship etc. I'm not saying get into discussions with every Tom
dick and Harry but a simple statement along the lines of "the company is alive and kicking, under new management, and we'll be looking to
address past issues, more info contact me on......." would go a long way Imo.
There's too few manufacturers out there as it is, we need to keep as many going as possible.
A lot of folk on here need to look up defamation and forums, especially the number we see about certain manufactures
What Is Defamation?
The publication or broadcast of any libellous or slanderous statement about an individual or business that can be proven to be false and published
with the intention of harming that entity's reputation is considered to be defamation. Online defamation is the publication of such statements
made on any Internet based media including blogs, forums, websites, and even social networking websites. While many Internet users believe that they
are free to say and do as they like while on the Internet, this is untrue and the same defamation laws and regulations stand for online defamation as
they do in any form of media.
All I can say is that even though they (did) take a long time to get stuff sorted, the kit is fantastic, can't say enough for the product.

Website is fine.
MK have now been taken over.
They are based in Essex and are really friendly and helpful.
Was over there today, got some very reasonably priced parts and some knowledgeable advice.
They even answer the phone now!
