Sounds cheeky but here goes:
If you are - can you bring me a decent 12v air compressor?
I've heard of ARB, Big Red and Bushmaster etc but top end units in the UK are around £260! Now I'm close to leaving for my trans-africa trip, my budget is exhausted, and my stupid little Truck-Air cannot cope with my 750/16s! If you've got PayPal or similar I can send you the money but you must be able to buy a decent compressor in Oz for less than in the UK.
Tony - I don't want you to change your travel plans ;) just for me so don't stress out, but if anyone else is UK bound I'd really appreciate this huge favour!

Hi there, I'm UK bound on 1st May this year if that is any help.
I'll have to
check out what our baggage allowance is first as these things aren't light!
Though I'm sure if you drop an email to one of the dealers (ARB for example) that they may be able to help. Bare in mind though that import duty etc may be an additional cost. Just looked up postage for this and to the UK it is about $77 by sea and $144 by air for up to 20KG. Of course once it arrived in teh UK it would need posting on.
Let me know if you want me to look into bringing one over
Cheers,
Chris

Chris - thanks for your kind offer but I am supposed to be getting the ferry to Spain on the 1st! Many thanks anyway for responding to my ill conceived idea!
