[QP4Me]

Just ordered front and rear spacers, had to really try to resist the DBW!

 

[Mr.Cambio]

[Ebenezer]

Got me a DBW! - However fitting it will be another saga

Well done, be interested to hear how you get on with it

2 hours of your time. Then two hours of hard accelerations and up/downshifting to discover the magic

 

[QP4Me]

I was going to order the DBW, but (like thinking I have an terrible illness) I googled it and read some good and bad reports.

 

[Ebenezer]

Never seen a bad report on the DBW and am really interested in seeing how it changes the car. I have very little experience in driving different cars and certainly never had anything like a QP before. Also this is my first auto box too.
Two hours seems optimistic! Takes me 10 minutes to figure out how to open the bonnet! Never can find the catch. Not fancying splicing and dicing it in at all!

I think Matt was non-plussed, but it was before my time.

Ok..let me be more specific...it's two hours for an experienced engineer Then you'll spend the whole day shifting round the town.

 

[Mr.Cambio]

We're almost done gentlemen. Thank you very, very much for your cooperation.

 

[Ebenezer]

Mine's on it's way! Thank you!

Now need to start trying to locate that "experienced engineer" (I have a degree in Electronic/Electrical engineering but it taught me nothing useful!)
Eb

 

[Mr.Cambio]

This is micro- electronics, it's not like building a wasching machine ))

 

[Ebenezer]

Let's hope it doesn't result in the QP becoming a vegetable!
Eb

 

[Mr.Cambio]

...or a pair o jeans!

 

[mjheathcote]

Father Christmas delivered a big box this morning!


...i'm sure a customs tax bill will follow in the new year from the courier

 

[Mr.Cambio]

Looks like you're the first one who receives his item?.. I have to wait a bit longer though. Save your pennies for customs, don't drink too much tonight Mike!

 

[Ebenezer]

Mines not due to 29th. How does the customs tax bill thing work. I'm having it delivered to work - so the will bill end up there too I suppose?

The only times I've ever had to pay tax, I had to pay it *before* delivery.

Maybe, just maybe, it's slipped through...
If I am lucky it makes the purchase very sweet indeed!
There was no 'customs due' sticker, and the Mrs who signed for it never said anything!...other than 'what have you being buying now' 'oh nothing darling....'

My bet is you're in the clear.
