Believe me, Vicki new it was going on, she was in tears EVERY day, because she could see the company going down the pan. Her and Pete would argue daily about it, it was quite clear that she knew what was happening.
I know you know about the company too, but first hand experience of the problems between the two of them spoke for itself.
Maybe she didn't know what was going on to start with, but she definitely did at the end. There were phone calls she would take from places regarding company credit cards and their status. If she didn't work it out from that, then I'm wrong.
As for the Paddy thing, yes I only worked there for 6 months, but the incident I am talking about was due to lack of payment from PVD, there may have been issues at the M-Tech end before, but not in the case I referred to.

Sounds to me like Donnas been force feeding you one to many stories about Vicki, fcuk over a few blokes in the Corsa circle Vicki actually had a life and wasn't intrested in Internet geeks, did you ever go out socialising with her? Infact your comment offends me she is one of the nicest girls I have ever met, she went out on a limb to get Danielle a job and was always polite, she isn't the kind of person to go and 'fcuk someone about'
You've got your own agenda here Daimo, no need to make people look worse than they actually are.

I agree though, Vicki definitely was the one who you listened to Pete was a bit of a ponce really.

Yeah, Vicki knew towards teh end, but at the start, she really didn't know a thing. I'd say around mid/late 2003.. But by then, it was too late, they were already trying to cover the debts, but Pete continued spending.
TBH, yeah, the delay im talking about with M-Tec was more teh start/middle of PVD's trading. I had to wait about 6 weeks for the kit myself
Her and Pete would argue daily anyway. It was one of those relationships where Pete adored and was besotted with Vicki (Hence why he made her 50% director), but Vicki just thought of Pete as a mate, hence why pete would get stroppy when she wouldn't agree, his way of dealing with things.
Yes OJC, Donna lies to me.... I've got my own adgenda, get real, this happened years ago now, move on.. You know F-all about the whole thing, even if you seem to think otherwise with your previous comments I've already said Vicki was a nice girl, but she DID fcuk a few blokes over/get fcked over by a few blokes.. People change, start realising that...

I bought bonnet lifters and a BFO. No problems. Although the filter did turn up late, which they phoned me about. Suppose the bad experiences out weigh this quite a lot though

I bought a Remus exhaust from them before I worked there. It was delayed. Apparently it had to come from Norway or somewhere

Might've been the same day actually, they'd just got them in stock & were showing them to me & Desmond as they were unpacking them. He gave one to Des & didn't offer me one
We were down there buying Donnas old Kosei wheels (as an indication to how long ago that was!)

Perky,...
Formally owned By Rentons mum.
Was at 116,000 miles in 2001.... Already clocked (I was gonna buy it as he was in Orpington, till i foudn the history).
A few years later, Pete bought it, put stickers etc.
Last saw it years ago at Billing. Then on jacks im sure as someone nicked the exhaust and wheels from PVD (or somethign like that..)

Pinky was C7s nickname iirc, Perky was the Van, which Matt (PVD Matt) bought from Pete, then put some 17s on it, and sold it to a lad called Ozzie from Northampton, who then sold it to Dan (who's username on here cunningly is pinkvan) who runs Cruisenorthants.co.uk, and has AutoGlym sponsorship, so the car can be found at Billing most years, sporting a full respray in pink, some 17" TSWs, Morettes, and a few other things.
I think it still has the A11 PVD plate on it too. interesting fact for you, Matts reciept for Perky, had the registration number of Pete's Cav Turbo on it, because Pete was a tool and got it wrong.
