Fastest way to get a GAP Diagnostic IID Tool BT - Island 4x4 via UK?

[twr7cx]

Looking to purchase a GAP Diagnostic IID Tool BT < IIDTool BT - Gap Diagnostic (https://www.gap-diagnostic.com/shop/iidtool-bt/) >, would like to support the Australian seller, LR Off-Road Australia < Gap Diagnostic BT IID Tool. (Price inc shipping and GST) – LR Off-Road Australia (https://lroffroadaustralia.com/products/gap-diagnostic-bt-iid-tool) >, but I then noticed the ad says:


PLEASE NOTE: Shipping can take 3-4 weeks. Some products are sent direct from the manufacturer to enable us to keep the end cost down. Postage alone in Australia is a cost of $11. If this does not suit please don’t order. We’d rather have you a happy customer that shops later then an unhappy customer shopping now.

According to https://www.aulro.com/afvb/electronic-diagnostic-systems/245392-gap-iid-tool.html Bradmc received a unit from Island 4x4 < https://www.island-4x4.co.uk/integrated-interface-diagnostics-tool-bluetooth-da6408-da6409-da6410-da6411-da6412-da6413-da6414-tfiidbt-p-27303.html > in the UK within 5 business days - huge difference to the three to four weeks! Is this therefore the speediest option for purchase?

I bought mine straight from GAP in Canada. It was in Perth in under a week.

Island 4x4 took about 4 weeks to get it to me. I wasn’t happy. They give you a delivery code which is determined by how they send the item. If you want it quickly you need to tell them otherwise they told they send items like the Gap tool via slow mail to save on cost.

Very handy to know, thank you!

Check they have it in stock. When I ordered mine they didn’t have one and took about 4 weeks. Other orders have been fast though. Once shipped it takes 5-6 days via FedEx.

I think Duckworths are the fastest I’ve used. They tend to get the shipment sent more quickly.
Transit time is the same.

Duckworths normally stock them.

That's where I got mine. From memory Dan gives members a good price. Mention you saw it on AULRO. No where else got close at the time. Got it promptly and he answered a couple of questions quickly.

I bought mine from LR Off Road Australia, I think it took about three weeks to arrive. It was actually delivered from Duckworth Land Rover in the UK, but LRORA were the cheapest place I could find including the price I could get from Duckworths.

So if your not in a rush get it from LRORA.

As in Duckworth Parts < Duckworth Parts - Genuine Land Rover - Range Rover - Jaguar - Isuzu Parts and Accessories (http://www.duckworthparts.co.uk) >? I can’t find it on their site at all.

Their site sucks. But their service is good. As already said email Dan.

And why I’ve not bought from them sadly

So if your not in a rush get it from LRORA.

That's pretty much counter the entire purpose of this thread. I'd like it in my hands within a fortnight - happy to pay a price premium to achieve that. In saying that I did try to contact them to see if they actually had stock on hand in country that they could dispatch - I've yet to hear back.

By the time you account for currency conversion, GST and import duty it's essentially the same price as LRORA.


In regards to Island 4x4:


Check they have it in stock. When I ordered mine they didn’t have one and took about 4 weeks. Other orders have been fast though. Once shipped it takes 5-6 days via FedEx.

I contacted them about price and availability including expedited shipping:


Hi

Shipping Code with is needed when you complete the checkout is FEDEX20

Which pushes them up to about GBP 380.00 total and the most expensive supplier.

[Redtail]

Island 4x4 took ten days to get mine to Perth. Pretty reasonable IMHO.

Looking to purchase a GAP Diagnostic IID Tool BT

I second the suggestion of direct from Gap Diagnostic. I ordered mine at the start of the week and had it before the end of the week. They’ve been outstanding in the aftersales service department, too.

Cheers,

I second the suggestion of direct from Gap Diagnostic.

Direct from GAP Diagnostic seems to be a more expensive way as CAD $681.00 < IIDTool BT - Gap Diagnostic (https://www.gap-diagnostic.com/shop/iidtool-bt/) > converts to AUD $719.50, plus freight costs?, where GBP 345.00 from Duckworth Land Rover converts to AUD $624.00 including delivery costs.

I'm about to place the order. Thanks all for the assistance.
