Lead Times are quoted for many other products which are not always held in stock, but please be aware these are approximate lead times.
Some items may be temporarily out of stock, and our website may not always represent this. If this happens because we have had a rush on a particular product we will restock as soon as possible. We will hold your order and ship as soon as new stock arrives. Please accept our apologies if this happens. If an item is out of stock we will advise you by email.
For Special Order parts we will hold your order, inform you of an expected delivery date (as best as we can) and get the goods to you as soon as possible.

Returns can be made as per our terms and conditions. Please visit the >>>> Returns Section <<<< of our website and request a return giving the required details. Any items returned to Courtenay Sport Ltd, must have a prior approval. All returns must be sent carriage paid by the sender and at the sender's risk (we advise using a tracked and insured service). All returns must be accompanied by a copy of the original and an approved returns request must have been made online. All correctly supplied items returned may be subject to a 15% restocking fee. No returns are accepted after 30 days.



I don't live in the UK. Can I still order?

Yes you can. We ship to most countries worldwide including Mainland Europe, Australia, New Zealand, the USA, Singapore, Taiwan, Chile and Brazil to name a few.

EU countries - Customers in EU member states can buy. UK VAT is removed automatically from the cost of your order by our online system, but you may be required to pay tax (import duty) when the items are received in your country. We accept no liability for any import duty incurred on items shipped from the UK and the buyer/recipient is responsible for any duty payable.

Non EU Countries - Customers who live outside the EU do not pay UK VAT. Items shipped to Non EU countries are exported excluding UK VAT (Tax). UK VAT is removed automatically from the cost of your order by our online system, but you may be required to pay tax (import duty) when the items are received in your country. We accept no liability for any import duty incurred on items shipped from the UK and the buyer/recipient is responsible for any duty payable.


VAT Free Purchase (Non EU Customers and EU Business Customers):

We offer VAT free (tax free) purchases if you qualify. It is easy and very straight forward and you can order online.

Non-EU Countries:

All orders to Non-EU countries are UK VAT exempt. Please order online, UK VAT will automatically be removed. For some countries we may require a personal tax id for customs (e.g. Norway we need your (11 digit) Personal ID number).

EU Countries Business Customers (Non UK):

If you are a business customer and have a valid EU VAT/IVA/MwSt/TVA/BTW number for your country then you can also buy VAT free from us. Please create your account online and email us with your Tax number. We will enter and verify your Tax ID with the EU database and change your account status to a Business account. You will then be able to order online from us and UK VAT will automatically be removed from your order before you pay.

Please Note: Items ordered by a customer from outside the EU which have had UK/EU Tax deducted cannot be delivered to an EU country.



Are my e-mail address and telephone number necessary?

Yes, they are very important. We may need to contact you about your order. They are also required for our couriers to enable smooth delivery of orders. If you have entered your e-mail address or phone number incorrectly we cannot confirm your order, neither can we contact you in the event of a delay or other problem.


Why would I receive an e-mail asking for more information and ID?

This is usually for security reasons, or sometimes to verify an address if we have a query. The address the cardholder has given whilst processing an order is checked automatically by our payment processors. We may need to e-mail you for further information before confirming dispatch of the goods. If you are unsure of any email you have received feel free to call us to verify its authenticity.



You have charged my Credit Card but my goods haven't arrived:

In the unlikely event that this has happened please contact us immediately by either email or telephone so that we can resolve this for you. Please have your order number available.


I placed my order and nothing has arrived?

Did you receive an order confirmation email?

If NO: It may be that there was a problem with your payment method during checkout and you would have received a message stating there was a problem at time of payment. Please check your payment details are correct or try another card. For example the date is incorrect, the issue number wrong, or the address did not match. (These are essential for security purposes). We do not authorise payments, these are processed through SagePay and Paypal.

If YES: Your order may have been delayed, or out of stock or possibly lost (which is a very rare occurrence). In the event an item is out of stock we will always contact you via email as soon as possible to advise you, though not everyone collects personal e-mail on a daily basis. Please ensure your email address is correct. In the event you think an item has been lost or delayed please contact us so we can check your order status and track it through the delivery agents.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need to resolve any queries you may have.



I have not received a reply to my e-mail?

We do try and reply to all emails within 24 hours (often more quickly), during the working week. Sometimes when it is busy it may take up to 72 hours for us to deal with incoming email. Busy times include Mondays and Fridays, so please try and bear with us. Sometimes email addresses are submitted to us incorrectly - if this has happened we're sorry but our email will not get through. Please also check your spam folder for our email. It is very common with msn, live, hotmail, gmail etc type email accounts for our emails to end up in spam. In the event of any query please contact us.



Why have you not confirmed my order by e-mail?

We always send out confirmation emails. In many cases they are sent automatically. It could be that your e-mail address was entered incorrectly e.g. by putting either .com instead of .co.uk (or vice versa). You may also have made your e-mail address a website by mistake (e-mail addresses do not start www.) or it could be your e-mail provider has run out of mailbox room for your account, or it has been deleted by a spam filter which is very common with msn, live, hotmail, gmail etc type email accounts. In the event of any query please contact us.



Can the orders be shipped to another address?

In certain circumstances, yes. Your home address (i.e. the address that your credit card is registered to) must be registered with us for all purchases as these are required to verify the transaction for security purposes. If you need to request a different delivery address (e.g. your work address for delivery during the day), upon finalising your order you may change your delivery address.
If you are paying by PayPal and your delivery address is confirmed we will be able to ship to it.
If you have never ordered from us before then we may not ship to a different address initially for security reasons, especially for high value orders. We reserve the right not to ship goods exceeding £50 to a different address, and will advise you if this happens with your order.



Notes about some of our products.......

Many items sold by Courtenay Sport Ltd are non-standard components for use in modified engines where the original settings and operating conditions no longer apply. These may be deemed Motosport Products. It is the responsibility of the fitter to satisfy themselves that chosen components are suitable for the particular application. Courtenay Sport Ltd has no control over the use of these components and accepts no responsibility whatsoever for the performance of components in new and unknown environments. If the fitter is in any way unsure about fitment of any component we suggest that suitable professional help and advice is sought.
