uk, PC importing guide

Hi,



I am new to this forum, and have decided I would like to buy a pc... is a discount code still available? Can you also provide further information on the transformer, as the link to it is not working anymore... screwfix have moved the item.



Thanks,

ukcamaro the transofrmer is one of those yellow boxes the builders use..i think screwfix may have out of stock recently...why dont you request a catalogue and find it in there



ive pm'd you as well ;)
 
Hi Steevo,



Thanks for the reply and the PM.



I have just placed an order with Autopia and also ordered a catalogue from Screwfix.



Thanks,

Afternoon chaps,

Looking to get a PC from Autopia, the thread seems to talk about a promotional code, is there a current one ?



Thanks and Regards

pm me for a code if you want one
 
Thanks for the PM message, I actually mailed Autopia and asked about customs and discount codes and they sent me back a 15% code.

I ordered it last wednesday and it was waiting for me at work on monday.

o and has anyone had to pay custom charges?? when getting them into the uk??



many thanks

O superb forum only just found it and will become a regular poster :getdown
 
Just to say I ordered one today, sent a message about import charges but not sure if that will be enough.

"182_blue" what else can I do to try ensure I will not be charged import charges?



I am also wondering, I have a transformer in my garage, its a 110v 50Hz and 3000vA (peak) 2000vA (continuous) is this ok to use?

WOuld be great if it is a wee saving to be had :D



EDITED

Just got an e-mail saying parcel is packaged and is on its way. :lock: :woot2:

Superfast service, :2thumbs:
 
Hi, I'm looking to order the PC from Autotopia.. Is there still a discount code available? Also any particular procedure for reducing Duty?



Thanks for any help

Thanks 182 Blue for your help. My PC arrived yesterday, and today my arms ache from the 6 hours stint on my Beemer! Still havent done the interior tho..!



Cheers

I got my PC through Autopia just before Christmas and havn't yet got round to getting the transformer. About which I have a quick question.



What is the recommended rating required? The clicky on the first page on this thread is for a 750va item. Is that the one to go for? For the same price you can get a twin socket 1Kva unit though. Would this be worth getting? And is the "16a" the right output?
 
Does anyone know an answer to this? I'm really keen to order my transformer I just need to confirm the rating. :)
 
750 is fine , thats what i have....if you can afford a twin outloot 1000 then its handy if ever you need to run lights or any extras



im not far from colchester btw
 
Thanks for the response.



Given that it's the same cost for a twin socket 1Kva unit and the single socket 750va unit I think I'll go for the 1Kva unit.



Might be interesting to meet up some time and compare results once I get the hang of the PC.
