    As usual we pay through the nose down here, but the Pagnian deal isn't so bad really!
    Just looked up both websites and jotted down some prices, did a quick calc. and here's what I came up with for a bundle:
    The Base and the F1 and BMW wheel bundle delivered from Fanatec Aust with an invitation looks like $1375 and Pagnian is $1437 no invitation and $62 dearer. A lot of the green stuff........ but TEMPTING!!!
    Note dicounts on the wheels and no delivery charges from Pagnian, Maybe if you get an invite from Fanatec and buy a similar bundle maybe something off ??

    It is expensive any way you cut it. Pagnian was shrewd though to simplify the whole invite complexity, using scarcity to advantage.

    Thanks for the Fanatec sale info @noorbeast, after THINKING??? about it for awhile I succumbed to the temptation and paid the extra few $ and bought the v2 wheelbase and 2 wheels, I already had the v2 pedals so now have the complete Fanatec set, well no shifter etc. but enough for the moment Must say a big improvement over the old G27, But for the $ it bloody well should be. Anyway by the time I get an invite and the way the Aussie$ is going it will probably turn out to be cheaper!!
