Hmmm - including that freight charge I recon Roger Carrol's Duratec conversion parts would be looking like a pretty reasonable alternative depending on your intended application?

I think the postage quote of 100 pounds is a worry, hopefully its a done deal otherwise you'll end up out of pocket by a fair bit more...Mick B is on the money....a cossie head costs about 160 pounds to air freight so this hit will be at least double that.
 
Some UK sellers arent interested in the vat exemption for exports and will still charge it...always need to ask the question before buying.
 
So when does it arrive?! Pics!!
 
Realisticly with it landed and in the garage its probably more like a 3 grand excercise with correct freight and duty paid.

  • You have to ask Dave for discount it doesn’t happen automatically. Why give it if someone will automatically pay 10% more 
  • There is no Duty on parts for a vehicle over 30 years old.
  • www.parcelbroker.co.uk for the best shipping deals or Interparcel
  • 330 quid is a price I would expect to pay to ship a pallet through seafreight.

He may aswell shut his website down then if all the prices on there are false. That's were the postage price came from! Oh and by the way my retro ford zetec kit sitting on my loungeroom floor looks nice.

So your gunna screw him down on price then tell him his postage price is to high and your going to get someone else to pick it up? Retro ford's price on thier own website is 333 pounds for delivery to Australia! Or you could do what i did and get it from your good friend SMCKA  Who has the biggest and best range of parts in australia backed up with the best service.

Oh okay Mick, so you would recommend smcka?
 
Firstly, why would I want to buy another kit as I already have one.?
 
You said you paid 330 UK Postage and then you say you bought a kit from smcka.? Which is it?

Lets not get off track and start forming negative conclusions based on theories and assumptions.

By the tone of this post I think it exposes the true intent of the original post...bait...no great suprise...its really becoming quite predictable.
