missed this.
My dad has just bought a new one, getting delivered Friday.
From these people.
http://www.thehottubssuperstore.co.uk/
he bought this model:

in brown with white inside.
The interest free might be useful to some although on the price in the advert he saved £1500 by paying cash and i mean actual cash
edit: expected to cost around a £1 a day in running costs and £50 a year in consumables i.e. chemicals. Advised to empty and refill this one, one a quarter

£6K
Yes slightly.
these retail for around $11k in USA, by time its imported, VAT etc £12.5k retail isn't that bad.
Its taken him 4 months to find this one, was looking at a jacuzzi but the equilivant jacuzzi was around 9k in at a cash sale price. Read the spec, i doubt you wont find any better for any less.
Whack some pics up on Friday when its here

Yes, but the spec is good, but if its anything like the majority of them, the parts used are crap.
If i was buying new at 6kish, id 100% go for arctic spas/spa form etc. Brand names from the uk, who have good reputation. Read the ebay listings for moving hot tubs, 99% wont touch a chinese/usa one as they fall apart to easy. That the main reason i went off the import idea.
check this usa one...
