LOL credit to the cameraman. Not only did he film it the whole way down, but he kept skiing into the back of the guy in front and having to give him a shove :twisted: Good lad.
I have been watching the Le Shuttle prices all summer, and they have not moved for quite a while, so I have decided to finally book and confirm them.

Return crossing for my car was £126.00. Not told Brooksy yet, but that's out on the 0405 crossing and back on the 19.20. I reckon from past trips we should only need 8 hours from Calias subject to weather extremes, and it is a Sunday so traffic should be a bit lighter, so hopefully will be getting there around 2 to 3 pm. Always nice to arrive in daylight.

Good one BB, support your local bushinesses. You never know when you will need someone local, worth the slight extra cost I feel.

Fair enough, we have two happy customers and two people who will not go near them again. I only wished to let people know my experience of them. I hope that anyone who uses them gets the level of service that Bandit and Daved seem to have had.

Can I ask how you paid for them DaveD? They were very blunt with me, and absolutely insisted I pay by either debit card or bank transfer. The woman on the phone was quite rude, and this was for a sale including wheels, so nearly £900 in total.
Jesus....i'm dying.

I would like to make a comment about the company mentioned in the link above.

Both myself and a friend had issues when we tried to use them to buy tyres and wheels online a few years ago. They refused to accept a credit card (even though the website accepted it for the order) and contacted us directly to state the card had been declined and to insist we either used a debit card or transferred the money via bacs. I smelt something fishy so pulled out of the order as did my friend, especially as we did not want to lose the protection of using a credit card. Further checks with my credit card revealed they had not even tried to put the charge on it.

After doing further research, I found several stories of people being forced to pay the same way they wanted us to, and then not receiving their orders, either at all or until well into the following season making the order next to useless.

Just want to give people a heads up of how I was treated, that's all.
