Fantastic service from Mike Dyer at IT'S ALIVE! I'm based in London and contacted them after spotting one of their old legacy-logo caps on the train. Mike tracked one down for me, sorted the shipping and payment, and even personally dropped it off at UPS. Really friendly, helpful service throughout!

Working with Mike at It's Alive! Automotive was a very positive experience from our first communication to our last. He is very professional and was understanding of my many questions when selling my late husband's vehicles to them.
