I am not certain about the reason for this notice and have an Email to Wren regarding it's purpose. My suspicion is that this is related to the closing of Wren USA. I currently have an order in place for a Wren 44i Turbo Prop and was, as recently as 8/6/2015, insured by Wren that my order is safe and will be delivered as promised. Time will tell so don't kick the kid out of the boat yet.

It has absolutely nothing to do with Wren USA and Ron Ballard Retiring.

Wren Turbines Ltd, the UK company is in simple terms Bust, Broke...what ever you want to call it.

If you have indeed ordered an engine from them recently and paid for it (hopefully by credit card or paypal), may I suggest you contact either the credit card company or paypal explain the situation with Wren Turbines and their liquidation and ask about a reversal/refund.

Or you could if you wish sit with your fingers crossed and hope the engine gets delivered.

Wren Turbines and its directors may well have committed a criminal offence by accepting an order from you and taking payment knowing full well the company was insolvent. This is something the Insolvency Practioner (Andrew McTear (IP No 007242), of McTear Williams & Wood) will look for as its his job to file a report with Companies House here in the UK.

Jetmanuk what axe have you to grind ? research the supposed rules as much as you like.

I don't think you have a grasp on how business can turn bad through no fault of your own,
Most companies that go into liquidation is because of circumstances out of there control and no fault of their own.

Ie none payment by a major customer or let down by a major customer (gov / educational dept etc) because of a change of plan etc. Shareholders want out ( due to retirement or disagreement etc)

Lets all jump on the band wagon and kick them while they are down why not !!!! ---- normal crap that those that don't have a clue join in on !!!!!

I have always had excellent service from Wren and hope they can move on and be successful and wish them all the best.

Good people go bakrupt too, and they typically follow legal advise which can takeover any "good people" precedent...... doesn't mean they are bad people now, but when a business goes under for legit reasons all parties lose.

I would not expect anything from Wren if its true they went bankrupt. The advise to claim to your credit card company or Paypal is very wise. If you paid cash, you may as well file a claim against the liquidator.....but do know you are last in line after all other primary creditors.
