their call center hours of operation,  they now have agents available 20

even have a Toll Free Number 1-855-746-2767 for customers in the USA and

Rimmer Bros Sales & Marketing Manager, Andrew Mundy, states that demand 
for their Triumph, MG, Rover, Land Rover and Jaguar product range is 
particularly strong from international customers at present due in part 
to the favourable GB Pound exchange rates and in the US aided by an 
increase in the de minimis threshold for duty free imports from $200 to 
$800 in 2016.

Expanding the contactable hours for the company will surely assist 
customers worldwide buy with confidence from this established family run 
firm.
