When you look at their catalogue theres no way they could stock all that, they, i imagine have assurances from their suppliers? The problem ultimately ends at burtons but may have come from further up the chain? The bit you wanted was not specialised but not exactly popping in for a set of spark plugs?
It doesnt matter, its about the enjoyment you get from it, not what others think! Mines far from perfect, im always finding bits and bobs on it, bits id wished id done better, but it was never built to be a show pony, it was built to be driven,
Thats suprising? Wasnt there something strange about that no1 car, re shelled or something? You would think that would be a keeper for sure, maybe they are selling it to raise funds for a snotty old escort?
