Hi Guys

I've been trying to contact Banks Europa Engineering, as my next car is going to be a Lotus Europa and i want them to do a chassis for it. But i would like to get in contact with them before buying a car. I've tried emailing them, but with no luck. Have any of you guys tried emailing them lately without luck? I was wondering if the company went out of business or something?

And i might have to call them on the phone, but i would prefer mail as my spoken english isn't very good.

Last time I dealt with Banks was around 6 months ago. I do remember they were very slow to answer email but quick to pick up the phone. If that's really not an option, give them some more time.

One other option if you're really stuck - have you considered Spyder Engineering? They did a Europa chassis for me & it's the dog's whatsits (jmho).

The general rule of business is
people who are ready to buy ring, people who are thinking about it email.
It's no wonder that many smaller firms don't answer emails

Banks Europa are a very busy company which may well explain the lack of an email reply. Richard Winter who owns it is a great guy to talk to so I'd just give them a call.
