You want VeeKay's as well Russ?

Got it in one Jules, so tired of Mrs Jules pulling up along side me at the lights and revving that ZT - I have no chance without nitrous!

Everyone I've spoken with to date says the kit is either out of stock or discontinued - not giving up though

btw I'm shocked that my use of the word Corsa gets through the swear filter ??

If your buying via xpart would we still get 10% reduction on an CDTi upgrade, worth it for the 20 odd quid

Many thanks for those Paul

Phil AFAIK it's not been discontinued but it's not a "stock" item.

The X-part centre order the upgrade together with your Vin number.

The unique unlock code for your car is then calculated and the "Kit" assembled and sent back to the X-part centre.

Sounds like they don't know how to order it.

One would have thought Xpart would want to sell as many of these Upgrades as possible to 116 Owners.
Seems these kits are not easily available

oh dear oh dear.....

This is not a stock shelf item as it is VIN specific. It is a part number that the upgrade is ordered to.
It is not out of stock, on backorder, no longer available or anything else.

If a dealer orders it, it is logged on the system, passed to me and I create the upgrade.
It is then sent back to the dealer with the next delivery.

If any XPart outlet tells you otherwise....let me know.
They need a "talking" to !
I will get their business manager on the case to put them right.

Despondant of Desford !

Sorry Stuart !
I'll re phrase my comments by saying this upgrade is not promoted like other parts Xpart supply.

I suspect you'll get a surge in demand after this thread though as owners can get more BHP & not have problems convincing their insurance companies etc as its a factory upgrade and not considered a modification in many company's books

Hi xpart02 - you could start with Windsors of Wallasey, they had no idea what I was asking for (though at the time I spoke with them I didn't have the part no. to be fair)?!

Rimmers also said it was no longer available but to their credit took my chassis no & promised a call back

Cheers, Phil

I have the Synergy 2 on my car, what exactly is the X-Part upgrade and how much is it to buy and to install?

Thanks
Mike

Ok solution found. Just been called back by

Alan Sharp - Rimmer bros
01522 563344

He said this is the 1st one he has sold but is now able to do it (and with the 10% discount for club members) - just call him with your chassis no & he reckons a couple of days to turn it round.

Thanks for help

Phil
