Be a little careful MrOizo. Parts shipped in cars have had a tendency to go missing enroute.

I would also be careful of Tau....havent heard particularly good things about them.....

I got my evo through tau. no complaints whatsoever. they were very helpful. even had a few spare parts in the boot when it arrived that i did not know about.

Really like what?? I've only heard good things.

My mate got a legunm through them no worries. (apart from it being a legnum)

I also got my car through Tau... no problems at all...

And also.... at the same time we purchased a Van from Tau and filled it with parts for my car... they all arrived safe and sound...

OMG so shiny! · by **Dell'Orto** » Wed Mar 01, 2006 11:42 am

Yeah, I think everyone has heard bad things about Tau. The only thing I heard firsthand, they were more than happy to sort out for the person. Gotta be careful what you hear, stories have a fantastic way of being stretched.

no worries... if things do go missing i'll make a claim against the shipping company.. cheers

I had a quick look at the site and can't find much! I looked up lancer (have always wanted an evo) and it only came up with one!?

Every time we have a thread about Tau, someone who has never used them pipes up with a disparaging comment, but, as can be seen from the posts of people who have used them, such rumours are a load of BS. :roll:

I've imported 5 damaged cars through them, and will import more, both damaged and regular auction cars. They provide a good, cheap, professional service and I've not had any hassles with them at all.

The only thing that happened was not really their fault. When I purchased the Ferrari, due to my haste to make sure I secured it, I didn't change the shipping from roll on/roll off to container, then I asked them to change it by email but somehow it didn't get recorded on the invoice so it got shipped RO/RO. Then some prick tried to lever the rear prancing horse badge off with a screwdriver, no brains at all though all they had to do was pop th boot and undo it from the inside :evil:

Stock changes on a daily basis, and popular models like the EVO don't stay around for very long. Though typically there are one or two per week damaged ones per week on there. If you're looking for a non damaged vehicle then sign up for their "Auction Agent" service and that will give you access to a lot of the regular USS Auto Auction listings, a quick look reveals at least twenty of them for sale currently
