Before this spirals out of control I just want to make clear that I dont really have a serious beef with the BOC, I'm sure they serve there members well, they certainly put on enjoyable events, some friends have just returned from the Isle of Wight jaunt. I was only peeved that my parts scheme money had been taken and I got nothing in return, so what if the parts manager changed a few times and I had not bought any parts for a few years. Also to be clear, Mike Hele is a good chum and a real enthusiast who I'm sure would have helped me if he was in a position to. I'm still not going to join the club though just to buy an exhaust pipe! One of the things I like about Isetta ownership, plenty of spares sources outside of any club membership!
