So I email these guys asking if i can order a non branded:

and more to the point whether it will fit without shims etc etc… I didnt get a reply so thought to give them a quick call last night.
The strange thing is that rather than a. take my money or b. ask me much about my car. He opted for c. guessing my age, what kind of schooling i had, where i grew up, telling me the names of his kids, that his mother moved to the States in the 1600’s…
Nice guy but i would have thought that taking some hard earned £ would have been a more sensible than to say… ‘why not call me back in a few weeks’
weird
