  I do like their newsletter and buy a lot of stuff there, but
I do get a bit bothered by the hard-sell tactics in the flyer.

  Things like:

Spitfire Steering Wheel Center: These things have been
known to fly off and kill little children. Better buy
17 spares!

Spitfire Emergency Brake Handle: You never know when you'll
need one, stock up now, and buy 45 spares!

Spitfire outside door handle: Any door handle can look
perfect, but after 6 weeks of use they are in danger
of getting tarnished. Replace yours today, and buy
68 spares!
