Good find

120mph limit means you have to fill the IVA form in to say top speed below that.

Quite a few manufactureres put the RPM as 10 20 30 40 50, instead of 1 2 3 4 5.

On the clock it usually says x100 rpm on the 10 20 30 40 clocks, and x1000 rpm on the 1 2 3 4 5 clocks

Seems like no sensors included, so you'll need to budget for them.

Oh well, must just be an exclusive set of gauges for an 80rpm motor!

And the temp gauge is in Fahrenheit.
They're undoubtedly well priced though, even without sensors.
If you get pulled up for import duty, how much would this add to the price?
Could you also be asked to pay VAT?

Or you could buy a digital dash for far less WITH all the sensors! Tho' I guess if you prefer the old school look that's not much help!





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

import tax seems to be VAT + £8 handling fee (by parcelforce), I think that is what it is.

The £8 is annoying

it should be import tax, then add vat, then add handling fee. Import tax is a percentage dependent on the item bought. Items up to a value don't have import tax, neither do samples of no value. Can't remember about gifts.

Now if the sender says the item has a value of 10 pounds when it really has a value of 50 pounds, the customs people won't know and will charge tax at 10 pounds.

Its all listed on the gov. web site somewhere.

These are from the Excited States, not allowed to go over 120 MPH, most big American V8's don't like to go over 8000 RPM, and if they do not for long.
