New Member Tacho Problem

Yea, the speak the Queens English over there 

 

Actually I was thinking customs etc, here I can ship stuff to Blaine and pick up, if I shipped a pair of gauges direct to Canada I would likely pay $100 in customs and brokerage fees.

Hard to arrange mainly perhaps because the import tax is punitive from the US? I got a second hand tacho from Dave (he of the fab special V11 2000 that hit a deer) and the tax was nearly 100 quid. Had to pay up before the Post Office handed over the goods.

So, I'm thinking when a Canadian says "$100" and a Brit says "100 quid" it means roughly the same thing:

 

a 200 ** part = 300 **

 

Still about the same what I paid for my last Veglia speedo in USD.

 

I'd like to think modern technology will outlast the Veglia, but I've seen my Veglia speedos outlast my Garmin Zumos . . .

No, 100 quid is about $200 Canadian Pesos
