Uprated Driveshaft Group Buy Order Placed!!
« on: February 03, 2009, 08:19:08 pm »
Uprated Driveshaft group buy is on!

I used to sell these when PSD used to be around.

In a nut shell  if you have an LSD or a powerful car that runs decent tyres on an open diff you'll certainly benefit from one of these. I've been running once since 2001 and never had any issues.

I would need to purchase in batches to 10x to get the price right down so the more merrier , no profit will be made from these at all.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------

1x Bare (Drivers side) offside uprated  driveshaft
Turned from a single piece of steel and heat treated, all the work is carried out by professionals in the trade and holds a material manufactures defect guarantee.

2009 Prices: £136.50 inc VAT + £9 Postage and Packing

Bearing in mind that the last batch over 2 years ago was £135 delivered each so the supplier has done their best price. although I cannot gurantee if they can keep the prices so keen for the next batch.

I’d like to stress that NO profit is being made from this group buy. To buy these individually cost at least double the amount.

This is a one off group buy Quantity of 10+ are required before we can achieve this price. If we cannot achieve 10+ orders I will offer a full refund to everybody who has paid.

Lead time: Minimum of 6 weeks from order date.
The Group buy will close on March 30th 2009 so that give people plenty of time to put aside some money. This makes the shaft ready before for the summer season .

The driveshaft is proving difficult to come by and with the increasing manufacturing costs these will only become more expensive as time passes so get one now while you can!




Payments accepted are:  Bank transfers,  cash or cheque ,   PayPal can be accepted but please allow an additional 3.4% + 20 pence on the total for the associated PayPal fee.

To secure a driveshaft please add you name to the list and PM me, I will then supply you with the credentials to make the payment.

I've enclosed a PDF file  which is displayed below for more information. ( you can only see this if you log in

 I understand that there are many people "interested" in a the driveshaft , however if you definately want one  I'll add you name my orginal post after payment has been made, this way we will know for certain if we have enough paid buyers by the cut off date. It just sorts the people out who are  "interested" and 100% commited.




If you are ready to pay please  PM me and I will send you the details and once comfirmed cleared i'll add you to the master list.


Regards

Karl

the old shafts where about 110 pound so ill guess at somewhere around that price prob about 130 now with metal worth more and labour. (at a guess)

99.999% sure it'll just be the bare shaft, new VAG CV joints alone would probably come to more than £110. 

Karl will no doubt give some better info but as I remember it these shafts are a touch thicker than normal polo shafts but the crucial part is that they have a proper radius where the shaft reduces down to the splined section on the end which was the most common area for failure on normal shafts.

I'm in the process of creating a document for the shaft which will include the new prices , this should answer most questions with detailed pictures. This will finished and completed  this weekend . In the mean while i'll try and answer as many questions as I can.
