He has said e295 for the splitter (as long as you dont want a receipt!) and e45 for the shipping and, at the moment, that comes out at a few pence short of £290

If we get to 10 UK ones that would be 450E, surely a van and a euro tunnel would be a better bet? Also cash talks and no VAT...

45euros is individual cost I have proposed multi items shipped to one address the cost would then be divisible but the splitter's would still need to be distributed there again same issue with a van senario who is most central geographically

This Group buy goes actually in germany,austria,swiss,UK and Italy.
I'm a german and I'm living since 10 years in Italy and I learned english at school, but french ..... sorry i don't speak french.
If you want to offer this splitter of this group buy also in france you can do it!

I've spoken with the producer this afternoon and we said that it will be ok to finish the gruop buy here after 2 weeks.

South Wales is the center of all things good :) I'll take them :lol:

Seriously though, I think it would be ideal if we could avoid collecting from anywhere that is too far from one of the main motorways (M4 :)), and somewhere which does NOT involve hitting the M25 to reach!

Reading/Slough type area...?

Even though I'm not in the GB I would be happy to take delivery although I don't satisfy the 'No M25' bit I do have a reasonable space for storage. I live just off J22 M25 (St Albans), just a thought

Cool nice one Lee thumbsup we'll see how we get on an maybe take you up on that Imnotworthy


I say rather than just leaving this group buy stagnate for two weeks we splinter.... If the 8 of us are happy to move on this then lets get paid up and organised asap so we can get them delivered asap. If others are interested they can form a seperate group.

If we aim for £300 each then whatevers left over between us can be re-distributed at a later date.

If we transfer it all together in one account then look how to fund the IBAN. Techie; do you know if our Caxton accounts can help us here..?

They're really nice looking splitters, the nicest fit ive seen on a VX actually... but that price is madness for a small piece of ABS/plastic :wacko: I suppozie its no different to most mods/parts for the VX though, nothings really reasonable in price.

I try to explain how comes the price of this piece, but at first I will remeber 2 things:
- The only Splitter what you can buy in the past costs € 500.-
- You don't must take it.

The number of pieces for parts for our VX220 are very low, which unfortunately brings with it the higher the prices than for another car.

I have spoken with the manufacturer and he explained to me the production process.

First, a design had to be created, then a positive form, from this then a negative form which is now used to manufacture our front splitter.

The splitters are laminated by hand.

Please add the time for the developement, the time to produce it, the cost of the material and also the fact that he must have a little profit like everybody.




So now I wih you all a merry christmans!!
