Just "Defender" or bad quality?

I really suck at the internet, otherwise I would like to crosslink the above paragraph over to the "Independant Suspension Vs Live Axle" thread in the General Chat forum.where the subject of ETC Vs Difflocks has entered the debate.
wagoo.

KarlB,

Thanks for that. I didn't even bother to look.

Devon 4X4 Fuel Cooler Guard - 31.76 GBP ($50.59)
Devon 4x4 Transmission Guard - 54.60 GBP ($86.97)
DHL Delivery to Perth (3-4 Days) - 53.50 GBP ($85.22)

Total $222.78 with British VAT!($199.86 without, but I'll end up paying the tax this side). Buying "local" would cost me $513.00 plus delivery from over East. The cooler guard is a different brand, but the same design.

It would be nice to support local business, but something's just not right!

Hey I looking at that very same order.

Anyone interested in a group buy to Brisvegas ???

Yes it is for a Puma

Newhue,

They only offer airfreight by weight on the D44 web shop. More you buy the heavier it gets and the DHL price goes up. Very nice shop though, a few lighter items might ease the sting of the delivery.

Cheers!

I wonder if like the USA they ship free within the country. Then perhaps we could get it reassigned with a different carrier. Would need a helpfull Englishman to help with the process however.
I guess couriers tend to use size or weight to balance the price so it's hard to have a win regardless.
Alternatively shop in the USA if they can supply. Those guys know how to offer up service.

Do you know how much your order weighed?

yes for the Puma and got the transmission guard as well

Newhue,

Yes they ship free in the UK.

The order said 3.5 kg, which seemed light considering the braces and brackets on the transmission guard, but hey - I'm not complaining! I got the order confirmation through by e-mail and from experience with Devon 4x4, it will be packed and shipped before COB UK time.

Sorry Nugget - hijacked your thread a bit there!:eek:
