Update from Quicksilver:
----------------------------------------------
Morning Peter,

Thanks for your update, look forward to hear what the response is.

In terms of discounts, we can’t really go any lower than 30%, which is already a pretty large discount.

Regarding delivery, we normally don’t charge for UK shipments, but if you wanted to collect the systems we could probably reduce the cost by £15 each.

We don’t handle fittings, though we may be able to suggest someone in your area. Generally our advice is that any competent mechanic should be able to perform the installation without undue difficulty. If the Clio’s are anything like the Elise’s I would imagine there are already some people you trust to perform the servicing on the cars. In which case we would recommend using whomever you’re comfortable with.

I hope this helps and let me know if you have any more questions.

Best regards,
----------------------------------------------
 
If we pick up the zorst we are looking at saving a further £15.

Thus price would be approx £550inc VAT with no delievery. (£552.53 exactly)

Although IMO thats not worth the petrol we'd use! :wink:

They are also not keen on further discounts. I think we need to get some names down. We can haggle when we have money to wave under there noses but not now!

C'mon guys!
Peter :D
 
there is only one

OK, sorry to hijack the post but I've just heard back from ProSpeed. Charlie's done a couple of Vees and can offer full systems and backbox only setups.

His custom built (pretty much any spec you want - noise, end pipes, etc.), is £590 designed, built & fitted.

Re. the Quicksilver, if they can only offer £15 off for collection (not sure I'd get it in the Vee!) and fitting is extra I'm thinking the ProSpeed might be a better bet from a cost/customisation point of view...

Good work JJ! I hope thats including VAT tho!

Prospeed £590 or Quicksilver £567.53 + £45(1hr fitting) = £612.53

Thus Proseed come in about £20 cheaper.

Whats the view here? We could push for a discount from Prospeed?
Or progress with the Quicksilver option. TBH I like the safety of a known quantity (Quicksilver) I am slightly concerned about bespoke. I want it loud but how do you specify without going OTT? Surely you only get one chance!

Peter :D
 
Plus I gues to be fair we have to get to Cardiff, and back! Petrol sort of negates the price difference! :cry:

Need a group discount! :wink:

Peter :D
 
ProSpeed price is inc VAT and includes design, materials & fitting. I've asked about a group buy discount and hope to hear back soon...

£600 is still a LOT for a back box IMHO :shock: ...and I have a feeling different people will want different things (look, sound, etc.) which ProSpeed can offer.
 
I'd lean towards the Quicksilver but at £600 I don't think I'd bother – it is a lot of money for a backbox.
