Mike....my intention is not to promote the roofrack but to highlight the amount of time...effort ..and stress that goes into bringing a product onto the market........therefore all credit to Flippa for biting the bullet and going ahead with his project.......I have had some great support from the Northern Mafia....mikeonb4c wrote:I happened to see one of Alant54's racks on DaveBlueOzzies AFT on Saturday. Most impressed with its strength, lightness, design, corrosion-free material and colour match to the Bongo AFT. Its a thoroughly innovative piece of kit. As useful as those Mazda Bongo alloy roofracks but better, cheaper and more available. If I were getting a roofrack (or bars), this is the one I'd get. 100% no brainer.
I know its a bit off thread and sorry, but the problem you have is that you are honest about what you do and dont hide it on the forum and in your posts.haydn callow wrote:It does not suprise me that flippa has had a few negative comments about making money out of Bongo owners. (see reply above from alant.)
I had 2 very abusive PM's regarding myself cashing in with the coolant alarm and what a waste of time it was anyway. It's good to read a few of the replys where the alarm has in fact alerted people to difficult to spot coolant loss. At one point I was going to chuck it all in but then decided you will always get the odd one or two who will always look for the worst in your efforts. The alarm is now 6/8 months down the line and only in November did I start going into profit.
Good luck I say to anyone who has the balls to come up with a idea and see it through to fruition.
