I have purchased from Snaab UK.

Needed to email back/forth due to delayed shipment but, they were communicative. They even offered to come and fit the part I purchased. So no complaints from me and top notch products.

Any other takers? More specifically for build/maintenance work than parts ordering.

Yea I wouldn't go there or recommend anyone cost me 8k and a scrap car.
Managed to sell afew bits to get some money back but still over 4 grand out of pocket.
I swear he is bipolar introduced himself to me as Gary and after 6 months asked me to start calling him dave. He was doing a full forged build for me.
Said its my build and we will do what I wanted and flipped out and told me to **** off and build it myself.
After I was not happy with some parts he had supplied that were wrong and kept trying to tell me that we can bodge it and it will work fine which of course I was not happy to do.

Jon, can you PM please? Would really appreciate having a chat with you further on this. The Gary story has come up a few times.
There was a Gary registered as a Director of D G Trading Europe Limited which was the back bone of what Snabb UK was. Dave’s being taken to court by myself and another lad I know currently.....

Court found in my favour. No real surprise there. Trying to get untangled from this person is hard work to say the least 💪

On the plus side, he’s gone quiet (a little bit like another so-called expert up in the midlands who has been diddling folks of late) and with a bit of luck it’ll stop others like me getting ripped off.
