Ignore the grumps
Hi all,
I work 4 miles away from Raw engineering (new owners of the striker) so if anyone wants parts picking up from them just send me a u2u and I will see
what I can do to help. Don't be afraid to ask even if you don,t know of me, I don't bite and it,s no trouble to go to them and ask questions
or pick up parts, so ask away.

Er, wow, thats a new one!!
I have been on this forum for a while and yet to see such open minded generosity!
Well I have a striker and may need some bits, so you could help me quite a bit.
I would like to visit RAW at some point though so the first pick up will be from myself as I need to chew thier ears of with q's!
Thanks for the offer and I am sure somebody will be along soon to ask for your assistance.
Maybe LCB should set up a free, no promised delivery date free service for people that want kit shifted about the country. Certain legs held by a
number of people to receive and pass on until the original orderer of the equipment can pick it up from a closer location. Like pass the parcel but
with out the unwrapping with every new person it contacts!!!
thanks again for the offer,
Bizz
Why wouldn't people just pick up the phone to call then direct or get them to post things out straight to them......... just an observation obviously! - and if anything goes wrong ( which is far from unknown in kit car world lets face it ! ) why would you want to put yourself in the middle of the resulting kerfuffle !!!

I wouldnt say they are the 'new' owners of the striker, I think theyve owned it since 2002!
However your offer is generous, and if I have any problems with deliveries from them I may will be contacting you!
Wish I was 4 miles from them, would have made collecting mine a damn site easier!

What a great offer I'am sure you wil be of use to many, I know Mel Coppock very well as he did a lot of work for me a couple of years ago and I visit hereford quite often as I have a friend in Grendon Bishop which is north of Hereford, are Raw in Mel's workshop still or have they got there new workshop yet ?
Hey spider man - very generous.
Ignore the grumps
Still in the Mels Workshop in Shelwick.
I have not yet met the new owners, I suspect they are of the same family of Bulmers cider fame. I'll let you know soon, as I am going to pay
them a visit next week, to see about getting some driveshafts shortened for my GT6/Cosworth Turbo project.
And thank you to those who have shown support.

Yes they are the 'Cider empire' brothers, although when I chatted to them in Feb when I picked mine up they gave me the impression the family didnt get much from the 240m sale of the company back in 2004! I only met callum who seemed very nice, and martin who acctually builds the kits is still there and seemed very knowlegable. I think they are still getting their heads around the company, and they did at first seem more interested in getting the new site and the Phoenix up and running than fullfilling old orders (i placed mine in April 2010 and didnt get the car till Feb this year!).
