dan 0 Posted September 7, 2010 Hey guys, I've been on to Amber performance (Samco Hose Suppliers) asking about discount for a group buy on their coolant hose kit. I emailed them through ebay and he's responded to me today with; Hi the retail price on the VR6 kit is £255.25 and the clip kit is £32.84 We can offer you guys 25% off if you can get 5-10 orders together, or 30% off if you can get 10 or more kits together. - amberper So by my calculations a complete 7 hose kit for a VR6 would be £191.44 if we get between 5-10 for the group buy and £178.68 if we get 10 or more. You can use your OE clips or buy a new set for £24.63 if we get between 5-10 for the group buy and £22.99 if we get 10 or more. I was suprised by the amount of discount they're offering and think this is a good deal. Amber Performance are now also offering the 25-30% discount on any Corrado hose kit, anyone interested? LATEST LIST IS; dan - Black Set - with clip set mort1414 - Looking for clip set only emu - Black Set - no clips tandino - Black Set - no clips (dependant on 30% off) C488ADO - Black Set - no clips vr6storm - British Racing Green - with clip set manps - Purple Set - with clip set g60jaime - Classic Matt Black - with clip set (G60) rsgntx - Classic Matt Black - with clip set Timbo - Black Set - with clip set (dependant on 30% off) MarkFoster - Black Set - with clip set (dependant on 30% off) winchbietch - Blue Set - with clip set joeyboswell & coullstar in the mix UPDATE: Amber Performance are offering us upto 30% OFF ANY Corrado hose kit if we get 10 definite buyers :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dan 0 Posted September 7, 2010 Here's the link to the kit http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... ink:top:en As you can see they're postage is reasonable at £4.95 and I'm assuming they'll honour that to post them out. This could get complicated with colours etc. so maybe you should specify your colour choice as well. Never organised a GB before so I may need some advise Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

big ben 10 Posted September 9, 2010 suprised a lot more people arent up for it, my mate just spent a fortune on a red set about 2 weeks ago :lol: i would leave it running for a month if you can, must be people who want a set but dont want to pay full whack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted September 9, 2010 I have a blue set but ideally would like a black set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeyboswell 0 Posted September 9, 2010 Coulstar...if you get a black set. How much would you want for your blue set? I'm assuming it is a full set? If not I might be up for buying a set in the group buy or just the clips. Will have a think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted September 9, 2010 Its is a full set but Ive cut the pipe from the head line to the header tank to splice in the turbo. Easy to reconnect it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tandino 0 Posted September 9, 2010 Black set for me please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dan 0 Posted September 10, 2010 Ok so were almost there :D The reason I'm in a hurry with this GB is because one of my OE hoses has a bubble appearing on it. This is the second hose I've had to replace so I'm just going to do the whole lot now because I'm sure the rest are well degraded now as well. The last OE hose I replaced cost me €106 :eek: from the dealer, so I don't want to be doing that every time one gives up. I'll keep this running until the end of the month.

tandino 0 Posted September 18, 2010 Id want the price to be 178 for me to be in, i dont see why we cant wait until we have ten definites unless people need the hoses now? Is it not worth a mention on the ccgb forum about this group buy too? Cheers Pete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dan 0 Posted September 20, 2010 Posted on the CCGB forum as well :) I have a bubble on one of my hoses at the momont so I would like to get them before it goes. Been nursing the car now for a couple of weeks with this problem. I don't mind waiting until the end of the month but I really do need mine asap, sorry.

dan 0 Posted September 21, 2010 Asked Amber Performance about discount for other Corrado's and he said the discount will apply to all owners as well. :clap: I have to say that dealing with Amber Performance is a pleasure... no quibbles, no messing just fair & straight to the point :salute: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
