they are only $295
And with the dollar at such a rate this'll work out really cheap. $295 is just uner £140 at the moment. Get a move on with this and count me in too!!!

You would then need to add delivery and duty onto the $295 so theres probably not much in it.

And you will hav to wait a while

I am in no hurry as it is a lot cheaper even with post and tax. And if they agree to a group buy then it may be even cheaper than that. mmmmmmm£160 inc del or £235...... let me think :bash:

Doller is 1.9 to the pound so £155 then prob around £30-£40 delivery and then around the same again in tax/duty so in total £215-235

Don't hold your breath with Autospeed, I suggest you go ahead with the AWE ones. Regal have supplied in the past and without issue (IIRC), however are not site sponsors. I'd suggest the following approach:

- By all means put a small deposit down when you order, but do not pay for the items in full until they are in the UK and Regal ships them to you.
- Gently remind Regal that it would be a benefit to them to take advantage of our Site Sponsor packages - Details here http://data.autowebmedia.com/Download/S ... ckages.pdf

For some reason my topic notification stopped working, sorry!

Ok, http://www.regal-auto.co.uk/ have them in stock and once we've paid they will arrive NEXT DAY.

I'm guessing the best idea would be that once we have enough interested, I'll call Regal and let them know that we are ready then everyone can call them directly mention the DTS group buy and pay in the normal way, once all 5 of us have done (we should do this on the same day?) they will ship them.

Just to make sure everyone knows, I'm not getting anything out of this than a DTS at £235 instead of £280, the same deal.

Sorry belgianS4, Karen mentioned these must all be mainland UK.

Point taken about the US order, but I can't see them arriving anytime this year, I wanted in but it just hasn't happened, I've emailed them with no reply and I'm not the only one.

Prehaps if more than 5 people are interested I could haggle for a little more off, no guarantees obviously.

I will 'gently' remind them about supporting the site too.

At the last count we need one more person:

I will wait till about midday on Monday to give people who only have work internet access a chance to be invloved and then I'll ring and set it all up.

belgianS4, I'll ask when I speak to them, obviously it will cost extra but hopefully only the extra shipping cost!
