Yes V-Tuning.com caught fire ( Heres words from V-tuning posted on www.migweb.co.uk )

[quote=\"V-TUNING\"]Message to all customers

We here at V-TUNING would like to say to all our customers that we will be unable to carry out any further business in the short term. Late last night tragically there was a fire in one of the adjacent buildings on the complex where our premises is located. Unfortunately the fire spread throughout all the buildings on this site and therefore everything that was in our workshop has been totally destroyed. There is absolutely nothing salvageable from the unit and this includes all tools, stock one customers car and personal project work. We are making this statement so that you all know the facts first hand rather than hearing it on the grapevine where some of the details you may hear would be incorrect.

As you can appreciate we here at V-TUNING are still in shock and at present have no further details as to what will happen in the future.

Thank you for your time
Regards
David & Henryk

apparently it was a corsa that was destroyed, and they were fitting a 2.0 turbo. i phoned them up about getting my rev counter fixed, but never got round to going up there. i hope they had insurance as well
