Audi Tradition Group Buy No. 26

[Colesy]

I'll be putting through another order soon. I'll look to get this placed next week for delivery to me early September.

Please note that duty will be added to all orders usually around 10%. I split all postage costs proportionally across orders which seems the fairest approach unless any large items dramatically increase postage costs like bumpers etc.

As usual please can everyone PM me on here with a list of part numbers needed and quantity required. Please check that everything is actually available first!

Collection from OX15 Oxfordshire is always welcome or I can post in the UK and internationally.

Hi Will, another of the bellows seals please

Sorry to sidetrack a thread, but is there issues with Audi Tradition and deliveries, I placed an order in June and still showing as processing and they don’t reply to my email! I may cancel the order and jump on the group buy.

Actually they have replied, this was in my junk, since when did they stop selling to private individuals?

[DFrosty]

Oh Scheiße!!

Hopefully this does not affect Sir William's ability to place new orders??

I don't think this is new news from Tradition so hopefully not.

It is difficult getting registered with them, they check to make sure you are a VAG specialist business first, UK VAT registered and have a valid EORI number which you have to reenter with each order. When you place the order they can take a week or so to reply but I pay by invoice so if you use the other two methods it may differ. VW Classic are completely different, you do still get a small trade discount (actually more than we get from TPS) but as a business customer you have to pay by money transfer up front because, and I quote “you are from a foreign country”. Once I replied that “I am not foreign, I am an English man and never a foreigner wherever I am”… didn’t get a reply

This has been their policy for quite a while now. It took them two years, if I remember correctly, to organise a system for post Brexit account orders... But obviously decided to stop selling to the public along the way.

Luckily I registered a fair while ago so didn't have too much trouble getting an account in the first place.

The first time I ordered from them was March 2016 but it was November 2022 before I jumped through all their hoops.

Colesy I have sent you a PM, could you let me know when you place your next order so I can sort out obtaining the diff lock seal. I’m a little reluctant to use mine as it’s got a steady weep.
thank you

You, Sir, are a gentleman and a scholar
