VWR / Vibratechnics 'Fast Road' Lower Engine Mount - Review....

[Puck]

Too bad Vibra-Techniques stopped selling it directly...

Selling the same thing 2 times more is a rip-off imho...

[MAT ED30]

And if you have a problem call vwr and discuss it with them

....Hear! Hear!  

And I wonder what kind of aftersales service you get if buying from Vibra-Techniques. Who are they? Google throws up a company specialising in vibrators

Still, they are costly little things. I have my car booked in on Wed 8th, Hoping the snow leaves us so i can get there!!

Well, you dont know what aftercare support you get from them, so how can you just dismiss it.    And you make me laugh trying to defend a product that costs twice as much for the exact same thing. And i am sure your going to spout your normal, " i dont consider price when buying things " Tosh. 

It's Very simple       VWR
Are ripping us mugs off, Simplez.   

Well i will rephrase that. Those daft enough to pay for VWR tax.

^^^ They all rip us off.... its scene tax!

How can you say that Tc when you and I both know they did things for u and others cheaper than anyone else    so why slate em so what if they cost more ask if they could do you a deal on them 

[RedRobin]

.
Some people have had experiences of VWR which they don't like and others (such as myself and Mat and many others) have had nothing but good experiences. You can apply that to every single company which exists. It's very simple: If you don't like or approve of a company then either challenge them directly and not by sniping at them whilst hiding in an internet forum, or don't use them and instead use the companies you favour.

What has that got to do with charging twice as much as another company for the exact same product. 

And i did get a good deal off them, which i was very happy with for my clubsports, but that was because they twice made mistakes with what i was after and i travelled twice across the country for nothing. I personally think they are a great bunch of chaps very helpful and i love what they do. This does not mean i have to accept you and Robin supporting them like blind mice.
They can charge what they want for stuff period. But I/we on forums can also inform and criticize  them if i think there charges are unjust.

Fair enough, TC, but I don't think that either Mat or myself are "blind mice" but rather that we've had nothing but good experiences of VWR, hence why we share our experiences too.

Glad to see you've calmed down from your unnecessary 'shouting' in your Reply #94, even if you do feel strongly about it.

I wasn't even bothered about it to be honest, until i read your reply being very dismissive of the cheaper company without any justification. You would have sparked up if the same comment had been made about VWR or Milltek. 
I understand yours and Mat's enthusiasm for them, but as always it should be a balance of views.

Tc you know I do most of my own stuff on cars and I would take my car to others but the 2 times I have it's come back fooked and with cross threaded bolts   and just poor workmanship. I would and do trust awesome Gti with my car as they have done a few bits on it so blind no just know who I want working on my car and trust with it so it's that simple and as for the price of these mounts if you don't like the price don't buy them simple buy something else

[SteveS]

lgosh, you guys putting me off paying out now!! lol.

same product? are vwr mounts the exact same product as another brand or we just saying that for the argument sake?

The same product appeared on JKM's site for half the price, with a different name. Then they were forced to stop selling them once stock ran out i believe ( could be wrong ).
Steve you should not be put off using them, as i said before, it;s a great experience taking your car there. 

All i was pointing out was that they over charge big style on a lot of products that just have there name stamped on them.

Mat the whole point of this forum is to help each other out as a community, you yourself have been very helpful to me and other's. part of that community spirit is sharing info which helps us all get the best deal. 

[MAT ED30]

100% true Tc but if they are priced too high then people need to bring it up with vwr and I will also ask them about the price next time I see them
