this post is passion ford at its best. PMSL at ROD saying to dave that Mark has bigger fish than him.

Way i see it is dave can leave his car at marks for months on end or take it elsehwhere and get fairly minor mods carried out by another expert in a much shorter timescale. not as if he is taking it down the local kwik fit is it??

If Mark isnt happy with that (im sure he has had many a sleepless nite over it ) then its up to mark to say so, not some sad old man that seems to have nothing better to do with his time than complain about fuck all!

Ive decided that Rod is a marketting genius, he's managed to post a thread which is at the top of the for sale section non stop all day, and has an average of 20 people viewing it at any time.

Even a corrupt mod stickying a post for you in the for sale section couldnt get you exposure like that

When I first saw this post I honestly thought it was Rod winding Dave up like Dave has everyone else bout his car

But after seein that PM to Dave, I know Rod is still a bit bitter bout the Bruce situation from all those years ago !!

I HAVE to agree wit Chip tho, Rod is an absolutly wicked fella which I have nothin but respect for !! He is ill sadly & I suspect it's effectin him in more ways than he cares to admit !!

Please, don't jus slag Rod off, I know how he comes across & that PM is outta order as it IS up to Dave & Helen where the car goes too & Martin's workmanship & attitude is 2nd to none !! But jus try a little patients with him, step back from the situation & think bout the bigger picture !!

Dave, if you wanna we can all link up for a drink, Chip & I can calm any nasty comments or situations down & sort it all out (face to face, rather than internet rubbish)

jb

I really do hate see'in you's lot row cos I got so much time & respect for both of ya !!

Jb thanks

I would be the 1st to admit if l have done something wrong, but on this time l have not. Rod has a really short memory about who's helping who and who is paying.

Fact rod does not like me using Martin and still has a problem with Martin and does not like me using him, I dont think your be able to change his mind on that, l maybe wrong

Once again l did nothing wrong and now people want to make out l did

At the end of the day l will repeat

Marks my engine tuner and builder

And Martin l buy bits of and has done my wheel arches and aliment

What else can l say?

How silly.

im aware of some of the things that have been mentioned in the past from conversations with Dave and Helen, and i really think Rod can be a bit daft at times. (im being diplomatic with my choice of words here!)

That PM is ridiculous, and i honestly believe thats its not the first you would have recieved in that way from the chap, and on this occasion hes certainly done himself no favours.

i knew full well as to why your car was at Martoon's and hes done exactly what you required with none of the past issues hanging over head, the Bruce Read issue surely is so far in the past thats it should be put to bed by now!!

does life really come down to the point that you can only have friends that use the same tuner as yourself?

Dave, i view this as you having done nothing wrong atall mate, and i know you and Helen both get on with Martoon as well as i do,
so what if hes a different tuner, so what if theres a past from the tuning scene between the 2 camps - surely Rod must be able to view this as Martoon helping YOU get exactly what YOU want from YOUR car?

in no way have you caused any harm, or used any form of bad advertising against Mark Shead.
