Would anyone be interested in a group buy on one of these? ive been looking to buy one recently and there a pretty hefty price with all the kit. saw a thred not long ago but i odnt think it ever happened.
If anyone knows any places selling them for a decent price we could try and get a decent discount.

Found it for $199 at
http://www.autogeek.net/ultimate-detailing-machine-intro-kit.html
Just a little over £100 including pads and polish, however would also require delivery to UK. will email them later on today.

Sorry to put a downer on this. But if its 110v then you will need to purchase either a 110v transformer to power it or a 110v convertor which plugs into you're normal socket, and you then plug the machine polisher into that.

So you will need to take the cost of this into account.. Also there may be a high postage with it being an american based company and fair bit of weight in each product.

I may be wrong, just don't want anyone getting a bad deal :y:

Yeah most transformers are bud.

I organised a group buy from Autopia back last year and got a few Sonus UDM kits sent over from there which all came in pretty cheap.

See what they offer you on prices and get in touch with a few UK-based companies as it may be worth going for a group buy on the G220's or summat similar mate :)

Uh huh lol.

It weighs a metric ton along with the 20m cable! UDM/PC is a great piece of kit though tbh.

Screwfix Craigy ;)

Also if it rains then you dont have to hurry or pack everything up which is uber-gash.
