Looking at current prices (in the UK)
TC4 £180
Pro4 £230
Mi2 £240
MR4 TC - SD £230 (CGM version £190)
RDX £300
TRF 415 £450
And the JRX-S will be out soon at around the £300 mark anything over £300 for the new kit would be suicide and only Xray die-hards will buy it, as now you can seem to get an awful lot for under £250. Look at the 415 it’s a very good car and the reason very few people have one is the price

thats crazy. some of those prices are more than double what i pay for cars in the US. Is there a huge markup there due to importing? Is the scene there so small that there is a slim profit margin?

nvisable,

the market is fairly small in comparison to the US, but there is also a perception amongst the average punter that there are a lot of people making good profit along the line...

Well i will the first be a kiss arse to tonyv,mario & x-ray team if they pull this coo off,
cos if it is £260 then the compition won`t stand a chance

I Know you can still get it from the us cheaper but there will be more peeps going to the shops to support the uk buissness for that kind of money
£370 + £205 @ £1.80 exc. so with shipping EMS of course +£17.00 . then run the gauntlet of customs
£221 no customs
£270 with ( 4% import duty,17.5% vat on the whole lot)
( these sums are a rough guide & are correct at the time of going to press & i do not hold responsibility for some nerd who goes abroad & buy)
