He has also been helpful to us with parts both new and used- Jason also loves VWs and Porsche.
I think "adam" found him helpful as well.

Thanx for the infomation Brookie.
Called Auto Europe and they were very helpful and hooked me up with a genuine Kombi muffler at a very good price, and looked at my heat exchange and advises me to repair it as it aint worth replacing yet.
Eric even came in on his holiday to sort it out.
Very happy, Thanx

Just picked Klaus up from an extended holiday at Auto Europe, very pleased, thankfully Kevin Rudd paid for it all so that wasn't toooo much of an issue. Lots of bits replaced rotar thingy, distributor cap and new leads - which seem to be the source of my cutting out problem, seals and gaskets and oily stuff. Indicators had packed in again which was the hazard switch so new one of them too. Only thing now is the ignition barrel keeps seizing up, wish he had just replaced that but hopefully will last till next time oh and a tie rod end needs replacing soon.
Drove beautifully, well worth the 3 hour nightmare trip to pick him up. _________________ Di

My '71 lowlight bay, 1600cc, has been in for some work, due to be discharged on 18th July.
Eric and Jason certainly know their trade and only do what is required.
Eric has an interesting background in the corporate banking world before getting into business as Auto Europe.
Also specialising in Mercedes and BMW.
