Default What is it with me and companies gone under??!! :cry:

Firstly, no, I am not connected to any company going under. The situation is:

I joined this site to ask where I could source NX parts after Nemesis Performance had gone under.

Now I've finally found a quick rack for a mk5 escort, by Trans Auto Sport Ltd, supplied by Redline Motorsport Limited....... both of which are in Liquidation

Has anyone else heard of TAS / Trans Auto Sport Limited?

I'm going to try and get hold of BDO Stoy Hayward who are dealing with the wind up, and see if any stock is left, as it'll be auctionned off

The only other option is to send a rack and £700 to Finland, as a guy over there modifys them... but it may not be possible as I don't want power assistance

Fook knows what's happened there then!

When I phoned them up last, I was told they were not trading, and their website hadn't been updated for ages.
