Hi Mike

Yeah been a while mate. Hope your doing good. Hows the S2 doing? Still pulling your hair out LOL.

White one had been stored on a dirty gravel drive for 10 years. Weeds etc made the floor rotten.

Hi Kev

Cheers mate.

The white S2 wont be done to my red ones standards but it will be a mint useable toy for the summer months where i can wake up on a lovely sunny sunday morning, get it out the garage and take my son for a great drive out somewhere.

I also want to drive down the the south of france over the alps and down into Monaco. One day matey

I've removed the for sale post until we can sort out this gold membership thing.

Hopefully we can resolve all matters and get these parts back to his outstanding customers over the next week.

I don't agree one bit what Chris has done and won't defend him, but if he is trying to put thing right then fair play. The RS scene is a close community so he must relise that he would need to gain the trust again...for a lot of people, I think that trust has gone.

Like I've always said, he started a business to support his family but it's beat the wrong time and got caught up in a mess.

Thats just my 2pence worth & hope Chris does the right thing and returns all the outstanding parts.

I've never had problems with Chris. His work has always been spot on, he's a decent guy.
Don't really understand why or where it went wrong for Chris, maybe took to much on and a lack of communication? I know if I wanted work doing I'd recommend him.

Im sure/ like to think Chris will get parts back to people.

fair play if hes trying to sort things out, imo way too late to start thinking about 'sending things back' tho, chris fucked my mate over and my mate has since had to fork out on all the bits again that he sent him to get flocked and i cant ever see him getting back his money he sent him niether!

When you click on his home page, there is 2 emails, 1 being Chris and the other saying Dave. Was he in partnership with someone?

No, this Dave is called MO****R on the RSOC and he made some pretty cool stuff up for fellow RSOC members. Dave had nowt to do with the scams or company.

I wont name Dave in 'username form' as it wont be fair to him if people start contacting him for stuff, He has already made it clear that he wants nowt to do with whats gone on. So therefor people should respect his wish.

Hi Chris,

we discussed me ordering a pair of numberplates, a tax disc holder and a rear window sticker for my car about six weeks ago. Registration C502 KLG. I transfered to you the Ł53.00 you asked for via Bank Transfer on 19 November 2012 when I was back from my holidays. Since then you have stopped replying to emails from me or the three messages I've left on your answerphone.

I did wonder if the payment did not go through but NatWest have confirmed it did.

Please can you tell me when I am likely to receive what I've paid for? If you're unable to process my order, please can you tell me when I am likely to get a refund?

Having Googled 'Chris Latham Passion Restoration Products' I've come across a few worrying threads on numerous motoring forums. I'm hoping this wont be the case with my money.

Kind regards,

Dont get your hopes up chap. While he was ignoring my emails from as far back as October he was still happy to communicate with you and take your money six weeks ago.

Looks like he's only happy to take our money and parts and then totally ignore us.

As said this guy needs a visit off people

If all that have been ripped off get together and all go to his address together would be a good idea

Take his stuff and see how he likes it
