Hi,
Anybody here know anyone in Velos?
Looking for them to sponsor me a Torque Tube here in South Africa.
I would take it to all the Car Modifications places and show them and tell them about.
Then they would be in more of a possition to import the stock to sell.
Anybody ???

We all want free stuff but it aint going to happen.
Try phoning them, they are very helpful and approachable.

I'm sure that they would be willing, what with the ammount of Corsa's here in South Africa, and the ammount of people that would love to get this, but it is too expensive for them to import just 1 or two.
The Marketing would be a hundred fold of what it costs them to manufacture and send me a TT.

Yes, they charge too much and have too much money that they no longer need to advertise or market thier products!

They dont bother advertising.
Just put a product together, make it cheap and hope people find them to buy it!
Doubt ul get owt free, unless ur car is getting magazine featured.......
They may give you free delivery or do a deal if you bought say 5 torque tubes.
U probably aint had a reply as its the bank holiday weekend over here too!

i sent them a mail about 3 weeks ago.
If they send me two, i can organise 3 different local Web site (Car modding) to do an article on them. and 3 local Magzines. All of the above are the only car modding sites in South Africa

They reply to my emails in 2/3 days
normally. I would have thought they are not replying for a reason.
I dont think place like that are into things like this, they rely on word of mouth and are more into the motorsport market.
