Yanto Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 I ask as I've just tried to find their range of seats from this link but it isn't as I expected, nor can i find any products. Cheers Ian Quote
Onliest Smeg David Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 I know they've modernised (ish) there site as was on it recently. So maybe just site issues (Hopefully still trading) Try these (hopefully still current) 01704 569730 jkcomposites@yahoo.co.uk Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Yeah, was on their site in the last week or so, it had been updated a little, but was still as you'd expect... As for the phone, it is a very small cottage industry, dealing with manufacturing a product that you just cannot step away from, at certain stages of production. Ive been in contact when he's been up to his elbows in resin, in the workshop, and only got a message through because his dad has answered the phone! He was pretty good at email replies though, but again, bearing mind a pretty narrow window each day in which to get through them. Just keep trying. (Be a great shame for the kit world, if he ever does decide to move on, or go down a different path, product wise) Quote
Yanto Posted May 2, 2017 Author Posted May 2, 2017 Thanks for the contact info @Dave (OnliestSmeg) - Joint Manchester AO I'll try both those routes. I thought the business wasn't a huge concern, that was one of my thoughts as to why they may not be trading as such. Cheers ian Quote
Onliest Smeg David Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 It is small - Jordan and his dad. But they are always flat out busy with a large word of mouth market (not just kit cars) I spoke to him end of last year and he didn't indicate there would be any future supply issues. Hopefully all OK as I want him to add the updated extra neck bracing to my seats. Quote
Captain Colonial Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 To my eye, the page looks like when you forget to renew your domain name and it defaults to that sort of appearance. I'm guessing everything is fine, just needs electronic sorting. Quote
CosKev Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 I bought mine end of last year and they were flat out busy,5-6 weeks manufacture time from paying deposit . As above though,always replied to emails, although sometimes would not be the same day you sent it Quote

Kingster Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 Does look like they maybe forgot to renew the domain name - no 404 error for me, just a typical 'generic' page with paid-for links on it. Could also mean it's been hijacked by some dodgy peeps, so don't follow the links! Quote
Phil J Posted May 4, 2017 Posted May 4, 2017 I have just had two seats delivered, they were ordered on 13th April for delivery early May, so all seems well with JK composites just a website problem. 2 Quote

Thanks for the confirmation. It did have the look of a website/domain name management problem rather than naything else. I'll be ordering a pair of seats from them in a couple of weeks. Quote
