I have to agree, Quick email and all my questions are answered.

Even top as a parts supplier - Everything I have needed to service my trailer!

Only issue I have is that he lives miles away!

What's the best way to get in touch with him?

I've been trying for a couple of weeks, and on the off chance my messages aren't getting through, thought I'd PM him here, but his inbox is full!

I'm guessing he's a busy guy - especially at this time of year.

Is his phone going straight to message?

Not straight to - rings first for the usual 5/6 rings or so, then to messages

Thought I better just follow up here to +1 the original poster's praise of Ben at Compass Trailers.

He revived our rather sorry looking death-trap of a trailer ready for our boat's annual migration from the driveway to the Solent! All at good price too!

Highly recommended!
