The only advise I can offer is you DO NOT for 1 second consider a car from Absolute Pace/ Craig White. He is a very dishonest bloke, and you will never in this lifetime get what you pay for. Hope this at least saves you some heart ache.

Sorry to hear that Davo965; as a manufacturer starting out in this business but having spent the last ten years and quiet a considerable amount of money getting here, I feel that honesty is the "ONLY" policy when it comes to dealing with customers, and robbing Peter to pay Paul is never going to work in a real life.

At ICCARS we have three builds on the go at the moment and I will not take anymore on until we are cleared of our work load, plus we advise our customers where to buy parts to save them money and provide weekly updates on our progress which takes a lot of time and effort to do, but is essential as far as I am concerned to build trust and good relationships.

There's a great saying I like to use when I do major projects in my other life as a Chief Engineer that goes like this - "If we build it together and come out at the other end as friends then we have achieved a successful outcome"

This holds true for kit cars also...

Sorry Dave......
I've wanted to stay out of this.. but you are way out of order here.
I didn't realise what you had written on your profile until David STEAN mentioned it.
After ongoing arguments about special "Super Snake" mods, and getting payments, you told AP to "stick the car up your ar** and give me my money back"
Sold it and gave you your full refund as soon as AP got payment from new owner.
I think you thought AP would put up with the rant and wouldn't sell the kit.
The bully ing just didn't work this time mate.
I'm DEFINITELY not wanting to get involved in any ongoing issues or arguments... but in this case, I felt you were just remembering what happened in a completely different way than how I remembered it.
Be fair mate.
Cheers Warren

Never get anything from Pace?

I guess that's why there are absolutely no registered Pace Cobras driving around.......

Just saying...
