well so much for getting discount prices from VX in Edinburgh with a Autobahnstormer membership card.

I'm planning to change the HBV and rocker gaskets this weekend, so I went in to my local VX dealer in Edinburgh with my new Autobahnstormer membership card and letter to get the various bits I needed .

The guy behind the parts desk looked at the card laughed a bit and said "It's not even a real trade card you get nothing with that", I even offered my Autobahnstormer letter which says any trade problems, etc contact so and so. He wasn't interested and then proceeded to quote £100 not inc VAT for HBV and gaskets only.

Full price for coolent, oil, etc. No 10% and certainly no Trade card discount.

I feel like a right fu*king idiot.  

Spoke to someone else in the dealership regarding this and they said the tw*t at the parts desk is the person who deals with trade cards, etc.

Now what the hell am I gonna do :-/

Thanks for the info, it's nice to hear. Wasn't looking forward to shelling out a load of money for a new timing belt kit, water pump, HBV, rocker cover gaskets and other assorted bits and bobs.

How long does Autobahnstormers take to process a membership application?

General Discussion Area / Trade Club Membership Questions

I'm unsure if this is the right area for this question but I've read elsewhere on the forum that if I join Autobahnstormers I get some kind of trade card.

Is this the same one that the trade club uses or is it a Autobahnstormers club card that some VX's dealers accept and give trade club prices for?

Can someone provide more details to how I use this card if/when I get it and who accepts it?

I can just see my local Edinburgh VX stealers say Autobahn.... who and then laughing me out the parts department  when trying to get trade prices

Thanks

Hi folks, I finally got my Autobahnstormers membership card with their trade member number   So I'm looking forward to getting trade parts on the cheap from my local VX bandits, just waiting to see what they say when I flash my membership card.....  

Anyway I'm looking for a way to check what parts are available on trade club. I don't have the red/yellow book, is there anyway of checking online at the www.tradeclub.co.uk?

If so does anyone know what the login name and password is for autobahnstorm? I have the trade club number but I guess I need the password. I would ask over at Autobahnstorm but I'm waiting for my forum membership to be approved by an admin.

Thanks

Just a general question regarding this kit. What else is needed apart from this kit to have a full working LPG system for a V6.

Am I right in thinking I also need the LPG tank and the filler pipes that fill the tank from outside?
