I don't think it's ever gonna dry up enough, why don't you just give in & sell them to me instead ?

(You can't blame me for trying........!)

What's the reason another batch can not be made? Is it just purely numbers?

It's not a matter of WE get them made. Crofts gets them made to order but you will need about 40-50 people with upfront money for a batch.

contact Crofts and see what he can do.

I have sent Crofts a PM to see if there any chance whatsoever of getting another batch made.

As said before (above), it depends if Crofts wants to pursue this, the numbers required to make it worthwhile & of course payment up front.

Let's see what the man has to say !

£ 180 for the chrome door finishers??

In my opinion this is like an robbery. It seemed a little bit

! How poor!

Especially in this case - many thanks to John (jonned30)!

Greetings

Good luck "mimbo" (be patient and wait, wait... - that was what I´m learning the last months since I´m driving a Rover 75)

At that price Crofts could order a batch & sell on e-bay!!!!

Amazing what people will pay, ...... Now where's my crowbar to get mine off!!

I paid £2,250 for my door finishers.

I did get a rather nice Rover 75 with them though

mimbo · 30th July 2009, 23:32

Yes Please I am down for 1 set of them

Come on you members who would like a set as well, Hands up now LOL

:bowd own:

My car would look so much better with a set

How long does it take to make a set? Am sure there would be enough other members who would like a set

mh007 · 30th July 2009, 23:35

As I said earlier, i've sent Crofts a PM & said that I would buy 3 sets. 1 for each of my 75's & a apare set just in case any little toe-rag tries to pinch em !
