I'd suggest an email/PM to the UK moderators of this site to see if they can help.
Also, mail/PM AquilaEagle on here. He is Chairman of the UK S2000 owners club (a separate entity from this site) and may be able to help if this guy is a member of the owners club.
Good luck.

The guy is not on the site AFAIK (and I've already tried to help out). Unfortunately, the address given by "Mr Sutherland" is not a legitimate one.

The address is 16 Parsonage Close, Mosborough, Sheffield, South Yorkshire S20 5BZ (there is no No.16 listed on the Royal Mail website) - maybe one of the northern boys could take a look?

I presume these were bought from Ebay?

If it was through ebay and paypal then you can reclaim your money.
Any other way you might struggle :/

Good luck chap!

A friend of mine thought he was safe using pay-pal until the day he needed to get his money back,he said it was like trying to get blood out of a stone

After being shafted by a company in the uk, I now only buy on the credit card as I'm 100% covered which was advised by the money guru dude on the news lol
