maybe
For those 'Down Under' looking for Vogtland springs, this is the reply I received from Vogtland in Germany (translated from German using Google)
Hello to Australia,
unfortunately we do not have a partner in Australia. In new Zealand however it is the company Suspension progress in Pakuranga, Auckland Tel. 0064 21378902 ability you us a partner in Australia recommends, we looks for a representative, who sells and drives our feathers/springs out. Thank you for your assistance. Yours sincerely,
Best regards Christian Klose sales manager
So it maybe worth getting a quote from N.Z.?

The freight is the killer. I reckon I can score them for about $80euro plus shipping. For a few sets it will be cheaper fellows... GP I'll let you know...Originally Posted by BigKriss

sounding good
what if we go for a weekend piss up in nz and pick em up? what do reckon the customs issues would be in terms of having to pay when back in oz?
Sounds like Vogtland would like you to be their representative in AUS. Assuming that you'll drive their feathers out.Originally Posted by pundit

hey aussies, i have a couple of contcats in Auckland one of whom lives in Pakuranga.......Actually he is a member of this forum.If you need any help just shout.We mau even be able to hit them for A bmwcc discount!
Gone but not forgotten
Sounds like a good scam in the making there! You don't know anyone making the trip to Aus do you? We could do with couriers and would do airport pickups in Bavarian Limousines of course. Or we could perhaps post one big box slow freight... We're looking at at least 3 sets by the looks of it, if you should feel inclined a price from those guys would sure fire us up... We're after the spring with model number #951026. Thanks Moit! GP
