However i have been email'd a link to a thread at T5D5

http://forums.t5d5.org/topic/14104-rt-mechanics/

Im not sure any of the forum members have seen this yet

As a person who has had a request from Mr Thompson (for whatever reason) I think he has quite a cheek.

I expect like Mr Hampster, I will be doing a little "digging" in the next day or too

Tired....

I read the thread and tbh its very confusing.

One of the last posts from Sir Drivealot gave me a migrane.

So he ****ed up a car, several cars i think, lost in court with a gagging order and from what i can tell told a VOC member to shut up or he would sue.

Correct me if i am wrong so far.

I would expect the plaintiff has thought better of his claim rather than the defendants scurried away.

After all, the prospect of a victory are, to be honest rather remote.

I think what we're dealing with here is that the vast majority of "I'll see you in court mate" type letters are issued on shakey legal grounds...simply designed to scare the recipient into submission. Unfortunately for Russ, some of the people involved are the wrong ones to pick on.

As has been said over and over again, if he had been half as concerned about fixing the original problem as he has been about attempting to clear up the subsequent fall-out and damage to his reputation...

As for how to get things removed from Google...it seems you have your lawyer write them a letter...

cheers

James

Go to the bottom of the google page "In response to a legal request submitted to Google"

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=rt+...ient=firefox-a

Shame the negative comments have found there way back onto google though..

Gets even better as it would seem Volvo UK dont like the way RTMechanic has been using the Volvo brand name without consulting them before hand..Lets see how long it takes BMW and the Mini to take the same actions..
