Merry Xmas Everyone

Now a word from the CEO -

To all our customers thanks again for taking the time to visit the site or ring us and order your bits and bobs from a sump plug to a full suspension kit it always makes my day and hopefully we still give you the best service that we can, I know there have been a few glitches but usually it's down to lack of communication on both sides.

I know a lot of you try to speak to me personally through the day but i have taken a back seat within the main structure of the business so i can divide my time between purchasing and over seeing the goods in side of things which means i am not in the main building anymore so don't take it personally if the sales team tell you i'm out or with somebody as it is often the case and they can usually handle your queery.


Next year we have a few things in the pipeline including possibly relocating to a bigger premises to get everything under one roof instead of having to go back and fore our other warehouse therefore cutting down on packing times and getting more out of the door per day and having a more customer orientated trade counter with more products on display and a dedicated member of staff to help you.

Also we are going to fix it so that it does not snow next christmas so you get all your bits on time !!!!!!!!

Any the how thanks to you all and merry christmas and a happy new year and remember vw's are for life and not just christmas !
Best regards
Ade.

NO GOODS LEAVING AT THE MOMENT !!

Due to yet more snow parcelforce are still not collecting from us again today so please be aware that you may not recieve your parts this side of xmas.
This picture was taken earlier this morning, there was no snow on the cars or vans when they pulled into work 1 hour before !
I hate snow !

Snow Joke !

Okay we flew back this morning from a sunny Florida only to find wales covered in a thick blanket of snow which is going to cause problems with our incoming and outgoing parcels so please bear this in mind when ordering.
Thank you please

Best vans ever made !

We had to leave a car at Gatwick cos of the snow and the other vehicles are in bits as usual so i taxed the camo van yesterday which has sat outside my house unused since vanfest (sept 10th), so armed with a new battery and tools i expect to have to manually unlock the doors but to my suprise the doors opened when i pressed the alarm fob so i thought to myself give it a try if theres a bit of life left in the battery.
The ignition lights came on,glowplug light went out and vroom she fired straight away without a stutter and when i drove it to work it was as if i had never stopped using it.
Why do people aspire to have over complicated and unreliable T5's when the T4 is the better bus ?

Open as usual !

Ok so we are back open as usual until the 9th due to the snow (see last post) so if you need the personal touch then get on the blower as we will not be answering the phones until the 20th of december which doesn't give you much time before xmas.
Thanks

Flipping Jack Frost can bite my cold ass !

.

Arrrgghh !!

were are back thanks to the weather, it took us 11 hours to get from swansea to gatwick thanks to lorries crashing on the M25 and then the motorway just froze in front of our very eyes.

We had to leave the car up there and get a train back :(

Gatwick was shut wednesday and thursday so that buggered it so we are back and the phones are back open until the 9th which is when we try to fly again .

This country sucks !!!!

OUR PHONES AND SHOP ARE CLOSED UNTIL 10TH DECEMBER

ADE'S OFF ON HIS TRAVELS WHICH MEANS WE ARE SHORT STAFFED, THIS MEANS WE CANNOT ANSWER THE PHONES, SERVE IN THE SHOP AND PACK PARCELS SO RATHER THAN SHUT DOWN WE HAVE DECIDED TO KEEP THE MAIL ORDER SIDE OF THINGS GOING WHILE WE ARE DOWN ON STAFF.

WEBSITE AND GAYBAY ORDERS WILL BE DESPATCHED AS NORMAL

YOU CAN CONTACT US BY EMAIL ON THE SITE AND EBAY MESSAGES, PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE ANSWER PHONE MESSAGES AS THIS IS FRUITLESS AND WILL NOT BE RESPONDED TO UNTIL 10/12/10.

ONCE AGAIN THE SHOP IS CLOSED AND NOBODY WILL BE ABLE TO SELL YOU ANYTHING AND THE PHONES WILL NOT BE ANSWERED.

THANKS

TRANSPORTERS R US.

Breakfast time the clock strikes nine !

Breakfast this morning with staff boys Stainless, Jamie bulls**t and big L.Dog graces us with his presence.

Snowing outside but warm inside, this country sucks which is why Ade's jumping ship and flying across the pond where he should warm up rather nicely thanks.

Oh and before anybody has the chance to say "He must be coining it in" it's been 4 years since he's had any time away from this place and he works roughly 80-90 hours a week.

Still want to sell van parts for a living ????

 

Still Think your car stereo pops loud ?

OH MY GOD !

T4'S R US x AVO collaberation

Just had a small quantity of our new T4'S r us shorter adjustable shocks made by our good friends at AVO so quality is second to none and made in the u.k.
These will work awesome with all of our lowering springs( plus others)and will also work good if you have done the top mount notch that seems to be gaining popularity as the damper is shorter than any thing out there.
These are slightly shorter than the billy b6's and are fully adjustable and boast poly urethane bushes compared to other damper which have rubber.
These are a shock perverts dream and dont forget exclusive to Transporters R us.

Intro Price is going to be £324.99 a set of 4 which comes in 90 bucks cheaper than B6's and these are bespoke to us and are intended for low vans in mind which others seem to ignore.

Bloody rush hour !!!!!

Just when you are minding your own business out for a ride wth your buddies it's 5 pm and every body jumps in the car and tries to get home asap !!!

Nice paint by bam !!!

This Lexus IS was Sharpied out about a year ago and now he’s back for yet another sick ass transformation. Dudes been holding it down since way back and as always the love is much appreciated.

Done the bad thing !

Got them banded steelies all zipped up earlier tonight and looking good.
Looks like south wales is going to be a transporter hotspot for 9.5" steel wheels as matt has another 2 sets to do for the crew !

Todays pic

NICE STANCE ;)

DOING THE BAD THING ?

OOOOOHHHH How many retailers get busy out of hours with some metal work ?
We aint talking rock and roll beds here we are talking some seriously (dodgy?)different practises of banding some rims for the van.
I think there are 2 specilists here in the u.k who can band your wheels for you but seeing as we have already sorted a set out on Dogs 55 ford pick up we thought we would knock up a full set for ourselves.
It's ok folks as usual we know what we are doing and our lad on the end of the torch is fully coded (about twice a month), If you fancy some the answer is no as we dont sell rock and roll beds due to the safety aspects leave alone splitting wheels and rewelding them !

DUB OF THE DAY !

DUB OF THE DAY today is T4 shortnose badgeless grills £29.99 !!!!!!
Get them quick as the offers only lasts 24 hours and we aint got many here now !!!!
Check the website for details :)

Established ????

Is it me or is there a new T4/T5 specialist cropping up every week lately ?
Crikey i think there were more at vanfest this year than there was punters :)

Remember folks you get what you pay for, For example we got sent some T4 Clear indicators the other day as a sample and all looked good until we went to fit them on the van and realised there was no stop moulded in to the unit meaning the light could be pushed back in to the wing and fall out if pulled.

We only sell depo units here which in 5 years of selling we have had less than 5 single units faulty.

If it's cheap then it's proberbly gash !

Winters coming so look busy !

Just uploaded some new parts to the site, nothing bling sorry just gold old honest hard working parts ready for those long cold winter evenings and weekends !
We have a load of new repair panels in stock and also some abs plastic belly pans which are not common on these shores.
We have some other stuff coming in the next few weeks to help winterproof your vans so keep an eye out on the site/blog.
Cheers.

T4 AUTO JUMBLE !

RIGHT DUDES, I got to make some space here so i am getting rid of my stash of USED T4 parts, side doors/tailgates/doors/captains seat/mint 03 passenger seat/clocks lock sets/acv gear box/caravelle rear bumper various bits and bobs inc some brand new front bumpers which have the fog holes cut too small.
The pics show pretty much the extent of what we have like i say just need to clear a corner out and cant be arsed with ebay

I THINK WE ARE LOOKING AT THIS SUNDAY THE 19TH 10AM-12 NOON.

THIS IS NOT AN OPEN DAY, THERE WILL BE NO FOOD OR NEW PARTS AVAILABLE JUST A GRUMPY BUGGER WITH SOME JUNK AROUND HIM (OK MAYBE SOME SELF SERVE TEA AND COFFEE).

Bank Holiday monday go do something less boring instead !

Amazing how many people ring us when the whole nation is shut down on a bank holiday, What are you doing with your lives get out there and enjoy the last bit of summer,It's going to be all you will have for about 7 months !
Leave worrying about vans and parcels and getting ready for tuesday to idiots like us who get no thanks for it !

BOOMING !

Sainsburys Bun in a GT35R MMMMMM TURBO PORN !

SPRING IS IN THE AIR !

Just had the new delivery of the -50 mm green springs, be quick as we have already sold about 60% of them !

Wheel bores !

We keep getting asked if our HD springs will stop my wheels rubbing and the answer is no !
As long as the wheels are the correct dimensions then you can take the rear springs clean out and still drive on the bumpstops with NO SPRINGS !

If you are looking at wheels which have a lower offset (ET/Backspacing) of 42mm i.e 35mm then you are going to get problems as the lower the figure the more they will protrude past the wheelarch which is trouble.
If your wheels are rubbing then you need new wheels or possibly new tyres (we only use a 225/45/18 tyre on our T4's) springs no matter how strong are meant to compress and will do so if you hit a bump fast enough !
Meanwhile here is a a pic of one of my spanking hot Rondells with an offset of 13mm and 8.5" wide which if you paid attention in class above won't work on a T4 !
Peace !

Bilsteins Are Back in.

Just had a new drop of Bilsteins to go with the expected delivery of our -50mm springs which sould be here within the next 5 days.
Be quick if you are after some as Billy are going on holiday soon :(

STARBUCKS Vs TRANSPORTERS R US !

Oh Yeah baby parcelforce brought this little badboy here today, Forum members from TMC (Too much coffee not The T4 forum :-0) rate the Irbirtal MC2 as the best non commercial grinder out there and i must agree it's awesome, The fine setting grind is like dust and the espresso has never tasted better here.

Big shout to the Happy donkey for hooking us up with the goods.
P.s if you want one of the bad boy mugs let us know !

NATIONAL PENIS DAY

Hey was it me or was it national penis day on monday ?
No ! You could have fooled me as the phone was backed up full of them !
If you think you might have a touch of penis about you try not to take it out on others and keep it to yourself.
Q- How do i know if i'm a penis ?
A- Typical signs are moaning about things way beyond our control also insisting on trying to talk to someone about technical issues when they have told you several times they only know how to process telephone orders.

:)

Big PAPA m Rolling hard !

The big Ems struck gold when he took the plunge and we fitted a set of our revised T5's r us coilovers, thats got to be the lowest van around not on air.
All you haters thats his mutha flucking mudflaps sitting on the floor, we are number one so go balls deep or go home !
Got some more coming in next week, ride as good as the v-maxx and we just put 2500 miles on that van and all sweet.

Van of the month !

Dave Tracker (nuttybar-44)on all the forums sent us his radical T4 caravelle for van of the month and who are we to argue.
We need more uk vans like this so come on players step up !

Phones Phucked !

Sorry if you have been trying to ring today but the phone lines been playing up, Hopefully we will get it sorted tomorrow, Meanwhile heres a nice three bean salad from M+S which was proberbly more interesting than questions about vans Today !

Loads of Stuff !!!!

We have some Chrome T4 and T5 badgeless grills in, Our own T5 air Filters to rival all the other Hi- Performance stuff out there, T5 Fog wiring looms with relays and relay plugs with Headlight switches, T5 Coilover kit for less money than the vmaxx kit and T4 2.5" Stainless Exhaust systems as well as the new side exit ones we have here.

OPEN DAY !

Just a quick note as we are getting emails, We are undercover so no matter what the weather it does not matter !!
you can chat, drink and munch the free grub undercover in the dry !
see you tommorrow van bummers !

HEY HOMIES WERE BACK !!

Ha were back, Little bit refreshed and a little bit less stressed ;)
Got a couple of new things to go up online and got a new warehouse supervisor dude so onwards and upwards.

Faggots and Peace !

Having some calls on my cell phone from friends and good customers that some misinformation is rife on some forums (No way misinformation on forums !)that we are closed down.
How dare i have 1 week off in two years, some people saying that we have too much money (WTF !)and we need to take on more staff (ERRR we just lost one) and we cant hang with the homeboys so just to confirm-

1- we are Sorting out the warehouse
2- we are implimenting some new systems to make everything smoother for us and you.
3- we certainly aint got a lot of money as we have to compete with knob jockeys selling stuff tax free from back bedrooms and lock ups !
4- we are staff training but see reason 3 why we haven't got an army working for us.

So for any faggot ney sayers unfortunately for them we WILL be trading again Monday 8th of March and anyone who's ok with it then we salute you.

Im writing this from a blackberry in the middle of knowhere where there are no VW'S and no warehouses just the open road, Hopefully the guys and gals at the shop are doing their thing and we will be back 10 times faster and stronger !!!
Cheers Yall
Ade.

We Are closed !

Thats it, I have had it to my back teeth of working 15 hour days busting my balls for piss all thanks, Richy Retard the joey packer quit last week and dropped the rest of us in the shit as I have had to pack all the boxes, do the goods in and order the stock as well as talk to knob head mechanics who know piss all about vans.
We are having a shake up here and seeing as i have been working non stop 7 days a week for the last two years i deserve some down time.
We will be back soon and hopefully recharged or maybe i might be locked up in a f**king nuthouse !

Mr Hollywood Lee Dog at the shop :)
