VR6 0 Posted August 25, 2004 After some help here people .... I've found (with the help of someone on the forum :)) a supplier for some alloys that I'm after. Great, but the problem is that they get them direct from the manufacturer in Germany and they're not willing to post outside of the country. What I really need is a reliable contact in Germany that I can have the alloys delivered to and who can then arrange to post them on to the UK. Anyone got any ideas?

Jim 2 Posted August 25, 2004 You could try asking Tempest very very nicely if he knows anyone that could help :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pablo_vr6 0 Posted August 25, 2004 can you get UPS or someone to collect them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted August 25, 2004 I'm not too sure Gavin. From what I know, the company deals with the manufacturer and everything is sent direct from there. Guess it's the manufacturer's policy not to send to individuals, and the associate won't actually handle the alloys. There is another Company that will send to the UK, but they won't seem to respond to emails.... and I can't seem to get it to add postage onto the order ... :? I'm hoping to get a courier company to collect them, but I'm not too sure about collecting direct from the manufacturer... forgive my ignorance Jim, but why Tempest? German based? German contacts?

Jim 2 Posted August 25, 2004 forgive my ignorance Jim, but why Tempest? German based? German contacts? Speaks fluent German, used to live there, parents live there, visits there quite regularly, loads of friends there.. in short he is the man with the German contacts ;) :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted August 26, 2004 Well C&R can get em...... in fact they list 3 or 4 different versions of Alurad ZWs, ZW1, ZW something else, polished, laquered, and so on and so forth. You won't like the price though......£1350 with adaptors :shock: All this effort will be worth it as they are stunning wheels 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
umpljazz 0 Posted August 28, 2004 Just on the wheels issue, I am looking for some BBS RA's and seen they go for silly cheap money on German Ebay just nobody on there wants to send to England. These German contacts, can they help? Ta Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
