Title: I want a trade card!
Post by: IrmscherKris on 14 September 2007, 20:44:31
Trade card, how do I go about getting one?

The reason I ask is the missus got quoted £27 on rocker gaskets for the MV6 plus vat EACH!!!
I did them 2k ago with cheap ones - against advice on here  ::) 2 rather K!!! Tonight I have oil in 1 + 3.

Kris is angry  >:(

Go to Autobahnstormers.co.uk download joining form, send off £20 of you English pounds and sit back and wait for trade card to arrive  :y  Mine took about 2 weeks, best £20 I've ever spent, saved me £££££

Unless you can prove your in the motor trade the other other way you get one is to join another forum like autobahnstormers for about £20 and they will issue you with a club TC card. The only difference is that you won't recieve a trade book or any of the flyers. HTH.

Ummm  no.....but with a TC card you will get 'trade' discount....a bit cheaper  :y

Its only popular service items you get on TC card.....and as we know cam cover gaskets never go....so arnt popular  ;D

No you can't, all you get is trade discount which basically will save you the VAT.

Thanks for the responses.

You wont get much off the rocker cover gaskets at all with TC. I bought the ones that Mark listed in his how to,. I think I saved about £4.

Trouble is that lot aint on TC, but even at trade you should get about 20% off retail normally.
TC really comes into its own with service items like oil and filters.

Yup, mig are cheaper, but seem to take much longer sending them out, which is why I tend to recommend ABS instead....
