Hi,

I' am a belgium member of the miniforum.
7 januari 2010 I prepaid a Janspeed cylinderhead of another member named ENGINEJOHN, till today I' am still waiting for delivery.More than 1 month from the UK to BELGIUM.
So if anybody had seen my head between UK and BELGIUM please let me know!

I just want to warn other buyers because I lost my MONEY :D and time with him.
First he didn't received the money, than he received the money but Mr Enginejohn was in holiday, than I heard nothing for another 2 weeks, than there was a problem with the transport company, so excuses enough but no delivery.

WARNING ENGINEJOHN WARNING ENGINEJOHN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im not gonna bad mouth him, but i had problems also, i advertised for parts wanted, he contacted me and said he had parts i needed, went to pick up (an hours drive each way), but was the wrong part. i left it at that as he said he had several more and he was heading down my way the weekend after, so i said great, and ordered afew more parts from him aswell as the part i needed 1st. after several none responsive emails from myself, i gave up and said i didnt want the parts, id be better getting them from else where that was more reliable, he then got very irrate and he asked me what my problem was, just be cautious if you deal with him, thats all, seemed like a nice bloke though! shame the parts never materialised!

I had problems too.. and some very nasty emails from him, messed me around lots and the engine turned out to be far from 'perfect'.

Stay away!
