I too know Martyn. He is personal friend of mine and has been for many years. I'm saddened by the news but more saddened by the rumours...so, I'm going to post a section of a personal email from Marty which will hopefully explain things and put peoples mind at rest.
Martyn @ VAG Parts:
To say I feel gutted don't even come close.... there's nothing we can do, it is the end. We went to see the liquidators today, the decision is made. We will clear up what we can, fulfil any order in the system, refund those we cannot fulfil and wind it up.
I hope Martyn doesn't mind me posting this and I hope this puts peoples mind at rest.
Martyn and the guys are decent people.
They are trying to sort out outstanding orders...and they have just lost their business that has taken 7 years of building, so please bear that in mind if answering *your* phonecall isn't top of their list.
Martyn has been helpful to many people over the years...he's a true Gent and the services of VAG Parts will be missed.
He explained fully the reasons why this has come about, in the email, which is none of my business, he didn't need to do, and I have no intention of repeating.
Lets not forget, Martyn moved his family to the other side of the country to build the business...so they have bigger problems than delayed orders. None the less, he's trying to do the right thing by all their customers.
I'm going to lock the thread now, as the title is misleading. I hope people understand.
Please be patient lads.
