TOP GEAR FAQ

Are you opening new depots?

Yes, we are opening depots all the time. New depots are likely to be franchises.

Can I buy a franchise?

Yes. Please contact us on franchising@topgear.co.uk or write to the marketing director at Topgear, 52-54 St. Michaels Trading Estate, Bridport, Dorset DT6 3RR.

Can I have 0% finance on my alloys?

Yes, Topgear offer 6 months 0% interest credit. You pay a 25% deposit and then 6 equal monthly payments by direct debit. There is also an interest bearing scheme we can provide as well which is over a longer period and lower monthly payments.

My car has 4 studs but the picture on the web site shows 5 holes. Is the wheel available for my car?

Most wheels come in both 4 and 5 stud patterns. If you are unsure, email us at enquiries@topgear.co.uk and we will email you back to let you know.

Will these wheels fit my car?

While we are happy to check if certain wheels will fit your car, please bear in mind that we receive a huge number of emails each day. Please try to keep your list to 5 different wheels and under as it takes us a fair amount of time to check long lists.

Do you get locking wheel nuts as part of the package price?

The prices on the web are for just the wheels and tyres. We do this because some people already have lockers and we don't want to penalise them by charging for lockers in the price. You will see that the lockers box is ticked as standard so when you go to the checkout they will be added on for you. If you don't want them, simply untick the box before you click on buy.

Can you send me wheels to Outer Monglia?

Although we might have trouble with sending things to Outer Mongolia we can export goods. The carriage prices online are for Mainland UK only (excluding Highlands and Islands) so you'll need to call us for a quote on 0044 1308 425895. Please note that some things cannot be exported due to the delicate nature of some of the products.

If I pay by card over the Internet, can I come an pick up my goods?

If you wish to collect your products from any of our depots nationwide, this is fine. You will need to pay when you get to the depot (this is to help avoid card fraud). A deposit will be required before we can order goods in.

What is the price in Euros / Dollars etc?

Sorry, I'm just not clever enough to be able to convert prices into other currencies. I suggest you use an online currency convertor.

Can you fit my wheels for me?

Yes. You can go into any of our depots and we will fit the wheels for you. Some of the franchise depots may make a charge for this service.

Can you get me tickets to see the Top Gear program being filmed?

Sorry - we're nothing to do with the BBC so no we can't..

Will these wheels look good on my car?

Well from a sales point of view we're always going to say yes. However, being realistic, what we like might not be to your taste. It's a personal thing.

My car needs a different size tyre to the one advertised, what shall I do?

If you order the wheel and tyre package as advertised we will contact you to let you know that we are changing the tyre size. If there is a difference in cost we will let you know before processing the order.

What are your opening hours?

We are open Monday to Friday 9-5.30 and Saturday morning until 1.00pm. Some depots are also open on Saturday afternoon.

Can you make a Powerflow exhaust for my car?

Invariably the answer is yes. We can make Powerflow exhausts for more or less anything.

Are you part of the BBC?

No, we're nothing to do with them at all.

Have you got any jobs available?

Not at the moment but if you would like to send a CV we'll keep it on record. Please send a CV to jobs@topgear.co.uk

What's Jeremy Clarkson like?

We were lucky enough to meet him in 2004 and he seemed like a nice guy.
