Returns Policy

We understand that there will be times when you need to return something to us. Our Customer Service or Sales team will be happy to help you through the process.

All returns must be pre-authorised by our team with a Return Authorisation (RA) number which must be quoted and accompanied by a copy of the invoice when returning the goods.

The 'RA' tells us that it's coming back from you and outlines what you want us to do next (replace, exchange, credit note or refund). All returns are subject to a physical inspection, so we must have received and inspected the goods before we can process.

Please ensure all goods are adequately packed to avoid damage, that you insure them accordingly with the carrier used and obtain a proof of shipment. Please note that all returned goods must be in the condition supplied at the point of sale and with their original, undamaged packaging. Return carriage charges are non-refundable.

Overseas customers should also refer to the VAT & Other Worldwide Tax & Duty section below, regarding refunds.

We regret that we are unable to accept the return of parts specially ordered or manufactured for you.

If you exercise your statutory right to cancel, you must immediately return to us (at your own cost), the item(s) that you do not wish to keep.

Returns of parts not required - within 14 - 28 days

Please note that this will be at our sole discretion.
Where goods have been correctly supplied, it may be possible to offset the full value of the return against another order of the same or higher value.Alternatively, a credit note (for the full value) could be offered. Please note that any cash refund will be subject to a handling charge (typically 15% or £10, whichever is greater) to cover administration and re-stocking costs.

No returns will be considered after 28 days unless covered by the terms and conditions of our Warranty.

Returns of 'Kits'

Please note that returned core must be complete, serviceable and be drained of fluids where applicable. We reserve the right to retain all or part of the surcharge refund if the core is irreparable, damaged, or not identical to the type supplied.
Returned core should NOT have been cleaned by abrasive methods such as sandblasting/glass beading or dissembled for inspection purposes. If such cleaning methods have been used and damage has occurred, or the core is a 'box of bits', the return will be rejected, and no refund will be issued. The core MUST also be returned in any special packaging used for the supply of the original part AND must be safely fixed/fastened in that packaging - failure to comply may result in a charge being levied for any resulting or consequential costs incurred.
