Hello. Does anyone know whether Dr Bongo is still trading? I’m after a wiper arm and they’re close to me. Phoned them and it answered as HIQ Tyres and when I mentioned Bongo this stroppy bloke said, we don’t sell parts. I tried to ask about Dr B and he snapped something about online and put the phone down. The website doesn’t work and I don’t do FB.
Any suggestions ?

Thanks Geoff, must still be going then, both got same address and phone number. Obviously whoever answered the phone didn’t get the telephone manner memo.

Guess he's in the Sales Provention department.
After such a friendly greeting you're not likely to be buying tyres or owt else there.

Yeah I guess so, I ordered from Bongo Spares in the end, no disrespect to them, I was just staying local. Well, trying to!
Bongo Spares were great so won’t bother going elsewhere.
