Thread: Expats living in India - Can anybody help?

Hi,
I am living in the UK and have an unusual request. I am the proud owner of a Bajaj Autorickshaw (tuk tuk) which is my pride and joy (sad I know!!) I recently had a throttle cable snap and need to obtain one. The problem is, whenever I enquire I always get told the same thing; we will send you one, if you order 500!! I am a private owner, it isn't a business, and my lovely little tuk tuk is 300kg of immovable pressed steel!

I thought I had solved the problem when I went to India and brought back a suitcase full of spares. Unfortunately they were stolen. Hey ho, such is life. In essence, I am looking for some info as to where I can obtain a small amount of spares direct from India retail not wholesale. Or even if somebody would be willing to buy a throttle cable (they cost literally pennies) and send it to me. This is NOT a phishing scam, I am not interested in bank account details, addresses, personal details etc etc. I would of course be willing to pay commission to anyone willing to help. I would even pay up front via a money transfer order. Thing is; I am DESPERATE to get my tukky on the road asap, especially while the weather is nice.

PLEASE somebody out there in India, if you can help, I would make it worth your while.
regards
