    Opinions from German speakers on this eBay deal.

    As I don't speak German very well and online translators can't be 100% relied upon I can't work out if this as a good a deal as it seems.

    Opinions please?

    It's a reconditioned OEM RS2 turbo if I read that correct. Also €116,90 for shipping because of not exchanging your own turbo I believe.

      I have ordered from these guys, UK company, they have a local Romanian Agent, a refurbished RS2 turbo, for a way better price than that.



      The turbo hasn't arrived yet.
      I will post my thoughts when the turbo will arrive. I

      If you can please call them and ask them what the price would be for an RS2 turbo. I am curious if there is a big difference between the Romanian Agent price and their price in UK.

        Just spoke to them directly, apparently they can only supply a new unit for £2000?

          So all in all not a bad deal for a effectively a new RS2 turbo, the strong £ helps a little.

              I'm curious as well, if you do end up with the real deal for a good price let me know and I'll order one through your agent if possible.

                  If this is the real deal kit then great news for you but sadly it would just be another reminder of Rip of Britain.

                    I agree Mark, doesn't seem to make any sense

                    We'll see what the score is when Bart get his turbo.
