It is not letting me go to "checkout", to be honest it is not giving me a "go to checkout" button.
Suppose that this is 'cos it thinks that I have ordered too many.
Only want one and at half price as a boring old fahrt I cannot let it go.

What route are you going, sounds like my problem maybe?
Click on the red cart icon (top right), which should have a number on it for how many items you have in it then click on Checkout in the popup. Don't click on the PayPal buttons.
Or is your browser blocking the "popup"?

Well done on the online shop, it looks really good and will attract lots of browsers for sure. Hope it goes well, Ebay have made enough money by now in my book.
Heres my feedback on a Search:
I tried the advanced search function to find a Q7 Rear Vent using an iPhone.
No joy with the advanced search function using Q7, Vent etc.
I found it listed in the end by searching with a £55-£58 price range.
It is showing out of stock but it is listed as available on your eBay store ??
SKU# is 099772.

Looks good, I've not tried to buy anything yet, and the key thing for me would be a really effective search tool that works.

Oh, and two questions:

(1) How long is the 50% off promotion for, and...
(2) Have you got any grey FL front mats in VGC? - I can see rears on the site, but not fronts. And I know that's cheating, really...

Looking for FL D2 black headlining kit (non-alcantara) in great condition.

1. Not long enough
2. Yes, that's cheating, tintin. Having said that, I wonder if they have the extended leather for the dash in cream, as I noticed a couple of sets in other colours.

Yes, cheating indeed - I Need to try and keep this thread on topic if we can, so i'm going to politely skip over all requests for stock details and now the search works much better direct you to that and the normal sales channels.

Ordered a few parts from this new site after spending ages just browsing.

Really easy to use.

Then popped out to get a sandwich from Asda and came back to an email to say it had been dispatched!

Improved site, same brilliant service and a whopping discount!
