A bad today :shock:
Just got a call this morning,my source of low price OE Renault parts is no more.
Unfortunately Kitchens of Burnley have gone into receivership:violin:,and with it all MY CONTACTS.Terrible news for the likes of Clio Pete,and 2Live,who got good deals from there
I will now have to look around for another dealership that is local

Hi Guys
With regards stock,I believe most of it is going back to Renault ,to be credited,with regards plant & equipment tools etc,It will be in the hands of the receivers etc,maybe an auction ,what ever it is,I will keep you posted

Hi Jon
unfortunately the "lads" aint,I was in there today,collecting my pride and joy :rally::rally::rally::rally:
and they laid the guys off ....no cash for wages etc etc:shock::shock::upset2::upset2:
I believe Renault Blackburn want some technicians so maybe a couple may get jobs
.
Was a very poignant time,Ive been going down there since 1989 with my first 5 Gt and I have nothing but great deals on cars and parts.Nothing was ever to much trouble for Peter and the parts staff,to get you that that"hard to obtain" part,
Even down to the Proper Renault Gp A parts from Dieppe.
A sad loss.:-(

Hi Rodders,
Heard about this through a mate who works at the petrol station. Apparently they came into work as normal last week an were only given a couple of hours to remove their tools and personal belongings. No prior warnings!!! Hope Pete is OK.....I asume Blackadder has come out of this without any problems.
There must now be an oportunity to set up a local Renault parts specialists...how about it Rod.
By the way are you still working up in Sunderland?

No our contracts were terminated last May :-( It would appear the accounts in the business got it wrong :shock: ..nothing new there,they have just started another set on to clear the backlog .....created by them.
I am at Silcoms in Farnworth ...but on 12 hour nights :firedevil:

All the older Blackadders were out of the country,it is only young David who has been in "charge" ??? for the last few years.
