With many .co.uk domains taken even though its best not to use manufacturer names, what are peoples views for using .org.uk extentions if the co.uk has gone?

With the amount of dodgy domains out there with manufactures names in , im almost going to go for it lol

WIll put a little disclaimer on it anyway saying theres no direct connection with the manufacturer which ive seen done ona site which dealt with another industry

Just be careful with trademarks etc and Nominet DRS procedure.

Not saying it is likely, but I had trouble with one of my domains a couple of months ago by some chancer who came onto a4u who worked for a brand protection company I still have the domain though
