Importing a PC...

Who did you get it from and did you get stung with import charges

Got it here (autopia-carcare.com) of course, no import duty for me.

I got mine from here 18 months ago now. Good price as the pound was even stonger against the dollar then than now. Duty from memory was around £30 and step down transformer £60-ish.

I'd recommend autopia for purchase - first rate customer service and swift delivery (4 days in my case)

I also ordered from Autopia Carcare and would echo Andy's comments, the delivery was incredibly quick and I also managed to avoid any additional charges. Plus I wanted to support the forums in some way, so another reason for me to order from Autopia.

I got mine a few years ago from Costaltools - no duty

got mine from Autopia - arrived in 5 days and no additional duty. I think it worked out at £130 with the Sonus DAS kit. You need the 110v transformer, a UK spec 110V plug and an extension lead.

One tip - if you get one - get extra pads too. You will want them after a little bit and they are like rocking horse poo to get hold of.

I ordered mine from Autopia too, ordered a good few pads as well, plus lots off other bits I needed too to make it worth while. I also went down the screwfix style 110V transformer and plug route.

I ordered mine from Autopia about the same time as Rich - came through quickly, with parcel tracking each stage of the way.
I ended up ordering some more pads from Autopia about a week later - it's like m/f you can't have too many!
