which mount?
get a pic? of how it sits?
has he used the gearbox space which will move the engine on that 10-15mm?
as cossvaux dont make them and the lads that makes them is shit hot, he has all the mesurement and ever mount it made to them size's so would be hard to see how one yours it wrong

I dont think there's anything wrong with this post - its just an oppinion. Look back at PVD, they got some right bad rep, which was then blatantly denied by them. I still have a copy of the post Vicki made stating that the company was financially sound only weeks before it sunk LOL LOL....
Look how many people got done over with them LOL. Although this does only seem to be one bad experience. Have you spoken to them and asked for a refund because the mounts are wrong? I think you should be trying to sort the problem out with them and only then if you get nowhere with them do you have right to vent in public.

I think if you returned the mount they would replace it. Also, you are nut just buying the Ecotec pipe, you are buying the adaptor plate which costs a little more than £3 with the pipe.... Regal do them for £100 (I know...)....

Ah deary me, I think Will is quite abrupt with most people. first time I met him he was a bit snappy with me, so I just said to him " just get me the bits off the fucking shelf, I'll pay, I don't want them for a cheaper price, I just want to get my stuff and fuck off ,I have a job to do"
He's been very polite and nice ever since, I think you need to be very a forceful REDSPORT, and start telling him how things are going to happen, rather than he dictate to you, from what I know of him, he'll like you more for it and make a better effort to help you out as he tends to think everyone expects a freebie or a discount, and he's a bit fed up with it.

Give the seller the opportunity to rectify the problem.
Make sure you have the right Vauxhall mount on the nearside before you question their measurements. I had to locate a 16v leg mount from a scrappy due to the new shell being different, it cost a fiver and fixed the problems.
If Cossvaux read your threads two things are going to happen, we'll get sued and you won't get any co-operation at all. You are outside of your consumer rights calling them names and this will not make them want to help you.

I would have made my own, but I only have access to empty cereal packets and brown parcel tape. Also, I might not have had measurements of the mounts needed. Also, I'm lazy and would rather just buy something I know would do the job.
Saving money isn't high on my to-do list.

I'm sure you'll think of something, then program the dimensions into a CAD system, run 100 sets of mounts off at a time and then make a packet, just a thought mind you.

I thought this is a public forum to talk about corsa's and modding and stuff. I dont see why me saying a company that suply modding bitz that offer poor service is gonna get the site sued as all i am doing is making peeps aware of there incompetance. Anyways I have got some mounts made up and i aint even gonna start attempting to ring em for a refund etc. End of they day i spent £400 and they did not fufill there part they were happy to take my cash but slow to get me the bitz.
(rant over)

Describing an experience is fine, thats what the site was set up to do.
Calling them names as in the other thread and this one before I edited it, will get us sued!
