Important Announcement from Club Carver regarding supply of Carver spare parts
13/11/16 19:00
We wish to bring to the attention of all Carver owners and service providers that the total stocks of Carver parts held in Uberherrn, Germany have now been purchased from ACU, and have been transported to a new storage facility in the UK. ACU were expecting far greater volumes of new car orders, which sadly never materialised and it therefore became uneconomic for them to continue to hold the parts. To avoid any risk that the parts would be scrapped, lengthy negotiations to secure the parts were conducted and eventually a purchase contract was agreed with ACU in Spring of this year. The specialist Carver service and test equipment was also purchased as part of the deal.
Once the UK storage unit was built, transportation began in earnest during the summer and the last truck from Uberherrn was unloaded at the end of October. The task of sorting and cataloguing the spares is now well underway and we hope to have most of this work completed by Christmas, to be fully operational by the end of January 2017.
As some of you know, Club Carver already offer a full servicing facility in Wales and now all the parts are directly on hand, we can provide every Carver owner with supply of parts and servicing for maintenance and repairs in a timely and efficient manner. Throughout this process we have discovered some low stock levels for certain essential parts and we have already started a re-stocking programme - our aim is to eventually provide a 48-hour turnaround time from order to dispatch for all parts. Of course In the short term, there may be some delays in parts being shipped due to the un-packing, sorting and cataloguing involved.... so bear with us please!
The move to the UK is good news for all, because the parts are now managed by enthusiastic Carver owners, whose only mission is to allow all our cars to 'fly the road' for many years to come. Because Club Carver Parts & Service (CCPS) only operate on a 'club' basis, please ensure you firstly register your car with Jonathan Bedford at the CVR-OC (Carver Owners Club). Membership of CVR-OC is free and available to all Carver owners worldwide.
With a vast range of parts available now, don't hesitate to contact Club Carver with your requirements for parts or servicing or both.
Please see our new email address for CCPS on the Contact Info page.
For CVR-OC membership please contact Jonathan Bedford, CVR-OC President who's contact information can be also found on the Contact Info page.
or you can message him via Facebook on the Carver One Fan Club group.
Further bulletins will be forthcoming soon, including the launch of a new dedicated website for CCPS, a sellers and buyers register and the possibility of some special pricing offers on certain stock items next year.
