Default DEFI LINK POD and GUAGES group Buy???

Have obtained a price from a uk supplier for Defi link system inc 3 guages, POD and Defi Controller.

The cost if we can get 10 buyers is £605-£615 + postage (estimated at £20)

The vaiance in the price is because of Jap excahnge rate. depending upon rate on day of order by them

Delivery will be within 5 working days of GB being complete. I have been after this set up for ages and not sourced any at right money yet


Anyone interested? If you know of cheaper I would appreciate an answer.

Regards

Rob

Contact Simon Lau at STiRacing, I'm sure he can beat that price.

I have a price from Simon Now of £570 to my house there would be post on top, but what about Vat and customs surely I am liable for 17.5% vat plus import duty around 6% and the post office handling/clearing charge???

Ta rob

any advice gratefully recieved. I thought that the £600 ish figure was good given I assumed importing (like the inserts i did gb on) would have the additional costs?

Simon is good, but like you said, doesnt include vat. I think most of his customers have got through customs without paying vat. If you get caught, you pay the vat. If you dont, you dont

I can get the 3 Defi gaugs (not BF) with link controller for £450 including delivery and vat. Doesnt include pod though. No one seems to have the Defi pod so you can get a replica pod for about £100 so the group buy works out to be around £550 including vat and delivery. You can probably find pods a bit cheaper.

Money I got my Defi pod from Simon, be careful of the replica ones as sometimes the fit is cr@p. After I had mine installed my mate did another car with a replica one and he couldn't believe how bad it was It is worth the extra money to get a proper fit.

Mark,

That would have been my pod! It is a bit on the wonky side but hey the deal we got was quality you have to agree.

So how`s your beast getting along these days? Anymore mad mods going on?

To anyone else I would strongly advise going for the Defi pod as it`s worth the extra cash.

Capita - Deffo go with Simon as he`ll not be beaten on price and it just makes it that little bit more exciting when you get your stuff and there`s no "additonal" charges on it.

Enjoy,

Chris B (organiser of previous defi BF GB).

The cost I was offered in the UK was for a Defi POD and guages inc Vat so surely it was good value? I welcome your comments as it is a quite expensive Group Buy, I dont mind organising but dont want to be caught with my pants down!

cheers guys I'll get there

I'm more than likely in on any GB if there is a decent saving. And the wait isn't too long. I was looking into getting some Defis' this week!

Are they actual defi distributors as appointed by Defi, or do they deal with Defi distributors?

Capita, they can be had for about £450 including delivery for the 3 gauges and defi controller and all sensors.

I've been quoted these prices and have been told that they would be cheaper if a few sets were ordered.

"Thank you for the email, prices are as follow, all for the BF range.

Boost gauge £149.23
Oil temperature and adaptor £140.80
Oil pressure £173.90
Control unit £72.40
Defi three dial mounting pod £111.63"


The prices include VAT but not postage. Installation would be £240.00 (Firm is based in Sussex.)

I'm not sure where this GB is going as noone in uk can beat the £570 offered by Simon Lau, however we may get stung for VAT, I just did with something marked gift!
