Coupe Turbo with Air-con - Samco Hoses (Price List Page 2!)

[-mike-]

Very interested in a top hose, I guess I'll have to buy the set though? My nipple has started to weep (oooer)

[Chris Willott]

any news yet on these?

[Tomcat216T]

Yeah the very nearly finished, just waiting on the final hose to be finished and then they are ready to go... should only be a few days now really!

[Neilbaker86]

Any news? They are listed on Samco's website now.

[Chris Willott]

mate whats happening they are on ebay at £141!!!

are they avalible yet from you and whats the price like?

[Tomcat216T]

There is a bit more of an explanation but basically Samco have not finalised the set yet (ebay list 8 hoses when there will be 9) and because of this they have not actually got a price. I think that the 'ebayer' have jumped the gun a little (possibly) as priced them like the non-a/c set. The set should be finalised any day now - my final hose is in the post and then we will know!

[Tomcat216T]

Got the final hose through yesterday, and all looks good. I have replied back to Samco and am now just waiting, for what will probably be, the final e-mail!

[Tomcat216T]

Hi all,

Here it is then the final e-mail... I have the final price from Samco now for the whole set and what I will say now is that IF the e-bay seller still has them for sale at £141 jump at that price as they have changed price since those auctions were put up! £141 is cheaper than the RRP! Below is the final price list including the break down of the individual hoses - (please note that the part numbers may have changed slightly from the early picture that was posted). Another point to answer some peoples questions is 'yes the hoses can be bought individually' you just need to order the relevant part numbers.

Another point to say is that I have had mine fitted for a while now testing them etc and they are 100% on! All the pipes fit perfect including the final one which I fitted recently... I'm really pleased with how the thermostat/bleed-valve hose turned out as thought there would be issues but there really hasn't been and the kit is fantastic.



So just to say again that the price at THIS LINK is actually cheaper than the RRP so if you are wanting these you should snap up that offer as I think they will be going up when the seller realises (possibly).

Also for all the people who have asked I will send an e-mail to see if they are interested in producing the heater matrix! Any other questions please ask!

So as I read this, the group buy has basically just furnished you with a set and the group is going to have to either rip off that ebay seller or pay a soon-to-be extortionate Samco price?

No not at all. The Samco price is the £164.03p, by time it gets to the sellers they can mark up what they please. I was just saying that the £141 is a good price as it is actually cheaper than RRP.

As for me being furnished with a free set - I would have loved someone else to sort this out as it has been months and months trying to sort things out, paying all the postage to send the pipes to samco - also paying the price to buy some of the actual hoses which I sent - I have one of the prototype thermostat hoses which is not as good as the final re-designed one...

Samco never promised a 'cheap' group deal they said that they needed 10 orders to start production and the price that they have is £163.03p which should be cheaper than others shops sell at depending on their mark-up.
