Default Trikey's Special Package

Having been in contact with Trikey regarding the various missing bit's n bob's on the 75, he offered to take a peek to see what he could find for me.

Lo and behold this morning a parcel arrives out of the blue containing not only a couple of replacement items, but also a more rare, and sought after item that I was after.

What makes this even more special, is that Andy has not taken a penny for this, not even anything to cover postage, which just blew me away.

Just wanted to give a public shout out to him, it is truly appreciated

I too have been a recipient of Andy’s generosity . Obviously he and Brian share the same traits

Smile Totally Agree

I’d like to fully endorse what others have said about Trikey. He’s just changed the belts and water pump on my 75 - even using one of the belts from his
own project car when he found the package from Autodoc was one short and so I could have mine back on time.
He also sorted another couple of issues and I am sure the car was cleaner than when I left it with him!
When I went to pick it up Deb made me a cup of tea whilst I waited for him to get back.
They’re both so welcoming and nothing is too much trouble.
Cheers Trikey (and Deb).

Andy popped over to see me a few years ago and did a 160 remap for me as he was in the area. Wouldn’t take any money off me and went on his way!
It goes to show a kind deed not only helps people but it is never forgotten.👍

Andy did a very similar thing for me earlier this month, and he really saved the day, m.o t day. wouldn't accept postage costs or even money for a beer. It's people like him that make this club what it is. Make sure you bring Mrs Trikey to the next club meet Andy, because you won't be driving home .
