Wow this is going to be a Good Group Buy.
Nice One indeed.
Identified a definite need with this one. There are around 200 manual 4200 in the UK and around 1000 globally (probably slightly less with cars being broken for parts or written off) so we have probably scratched the surface with 20 units
Of course aluminium is not to everyone's taste but it ensures a minimum level of quality that is more easily achieved than dealing with a leather wrapped product with a gel sticker which is hand made - it will cost more wear quicker and as I mentioned potential quality concerns.
I have had a few enquiries about a 3200 shifter. This is totally possible but ideally we require a sample to work with - condition not important
Also someone asked me if I approached Hills Engineering - yes I did but they said that they are too busy to help currently. The company we are working with has experience doing customised parts for this industry.
