The heated window kit was very difficult to fit and doesn't perform well, the fitting instructions were also slightly vague. I only needed the grid but had to buy the wiring, switch and relay as well.... See more

Delivery costs

Attempted to buy a small distributor centre carbon brush for a Lucas distributor, brush is approx 10mm long x 3mm dia. with a matching tiny spring.....I was appalled to be advised delivery cost to Northern Ireland would be £16.56p.....this is an item that would fit in the corner of a small envelope with a second class stamp. This company obviously does not need my custom.......nor will it ever get it!

Order forgotten

Order forgotten, only after enquiry finally redelivery and now money refund pending. A lot of hassle for a few parts.
Too bad, would have expected better.

I am sorry you didn't receive the usual high level of service we strive for. We have switched all orders into our new sales system and your payment method wasn't accurate. The good news is we are running back to normal and have cheaper shipping rates and a larger stock range now.

Quick delivery for halfway round the world.
I've bought other items in past from Holden.
Only gripe would be they never answer any email questions or queries about items for sale !!

Outstanding responses and refund.

Holden generally offer an excellent service to vintage car customers and I have bought many parts from them over several years for my two pre-war cars. However the fuel gauge/sender/voltage stabiliser for my Morris 8 would not show empty correctly. After much experimentation and Holden swapping of parts I made it work with a voltage stabiliser of a different type from a different supplier which works ok. I gave that information to Holden. I returned the inadequate unit and an unused gauge (tried with Holden's agreement as a possibility) for a refund and heard nothing. I then corresponded with the contact (who seemed to be frequently to be on holiday) but again had no reply. I suggested a simple experiment their engineers could try to see the problem but had no response. I feel that possibly the sales person is blocking a response from a group I previously found to be excellent. The date of experience below is the last letter I sent but the saga went on for a long time before. During that time Holden had my gauge checked by the supplier and returned it with no information whatsoever!
