Kahn

any UK owners out there know any good places to order kahn parts for the rrs?

2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black

Jikjak - as a Canadian living in Belgium and with experience in shipping stuff in both directions, don't you think that a) the UK pound to Canadian dollar exchange rate is a little penalising b) While you'll save the UK VAT, you'll be hit with GST, PST and import duties (based on individual country of origin). This is not to mention the shipping cost of sending stuff from Europe to BC. UPS wanted over 500 EUR to ship my mountain bike (in a purpose built case) one way to BC this summer. If you are ordering body parts and wheels, the volume and weight penalty will really drive that cost up.

You should check out suppliers in the U.S. - the exchange rate is currently more attractive and sales taxes way lower. You can then arrange to have the stuff shipped to a garage in Bellingham, get it installed there and head back home with Canada Customs none the wiser.

Hell - you're in Richmond! Half way there already. 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE, Java/Ebony/Cherry, Privacy, Sunroof, PTI, Premium Sound, SatNav, Cold Climate, Tow kit, CarStyle coded grill and vents, Tasmods, Stormers, JE Exhaust, Autobiography badge

well i have been comparing prices and even with the exchange rate the prices seem better un the UK. for example the exhaust is 999 GBP compared to 3500 usd. if u send the parts by sea it shouldnt be too expensive. ive shipped parts from japan beforei know it takes much longer but i have time since my RRS wont arrive until december. i was planning to order parts before the car arrives. as far as customs is concerned, either way i have to deal with them whether it comes from us or uk. 02 m3cab (bye)

Sorry jikjak just my personal opinion but I think you will spoil the look, why not just buy a HST that is just as ugly

Agreed!

It's all down to personal opinion obviously, but the Kahn stuff does tend to be a bit footballery.

Sometimes there are Kahn parts on UK ebay,

and for taste!!!!!

Yes a Kahn is ok

I have a FFRR Kahn (official numbered conversion) and i love every secondi drive or look at it

And yes the parts are expensive, but it is also the exclusivity you buy
