Tazo Parts still on business?

Hi members:

Somebody can tell me if Tazo Parts still doing business?. The website is operational but I can't get an answer of any of my emails to customer service.

Cheers

Do you mean the Polish company Tazu, who introduced the metal slave cylinder or the UK based Tazo? As I understand it, Tazu is/was latterly supplying Xpart with clutch cylinders. I believe Tazo is a one-man selling agent and has/had a wider range including a lot of the Chinese stuff as per Radioguy. I've not followed either myself but might be able to find something.

OK. That's the one-man operation that offered many of the Chinese 'Roewe' type parts and introduced a number of stainless steel and alloy connectors for the 75/ZT cooling system.
He used to have a lot listed on eBay, which have now largely disappeared. However, I suspect the operation has failed or is being wound down. I've spotted one of Tazo's anodised alloy pipes on eBay being sold by a new trader using the name 'bojoclearance' which may confirm my suspicions. The location for bojoclearance item is the same as was previously used by Tazo Parts.

If there's anything you think he can supply you with, I'd suggest sending him a message via the eBay page. Also click the 'Other Items' link.

Hope this helps.

I emailed Tazo (using the Gmail address on their website) on May 24th and never got a reply.

The person named there isn't the one who started Tazo on ebay, so it does look like there's been a change and Tazo's name has gone.

EDIT: He is/was a member here for a short time. Click: https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/member.php?u=40499

Some slightly more encouraging news on this. Thanks to T-Cut's detective work (see earlier post from TC) and the lead to Bojo UK I emailed there and asked if he knew anything about Tazo Parts. Just got a reply. Turns out Tazo is the son of Bojo (!) and the father has taken on all the stock as the son has had various problems. He has promised to sort out either the supply of my part or a refund asap, and he sounded like he meant it, so here's hoping he's as good as his word. Will update when I hear further.
