from germany to switzerland it took 2-3 weeks as I recall. (perfect excuse to buy another SAK as 'stand-in'  >:D)

Always wondered about that. Will keep an eye on this thread.
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

Heres an update. I received a letter later today from Burton McCall stating my Spirit needed to go back to Switzerland and would take 8 to 10 weeks. I phoned them, they then agreed to send me a new replacement in two weeks time when they have Spirits back  in stock again.

Ah well, at least you've got option's.  I'm guessing if they had them in stock you'd get one sooner.

I should say you're right Gareth, I'm not complaining. I do hope I get it back early September though, my car misses it already :-D
