A Business Opportunity
It seems to me, the whole spare parts “cost” issue creates an opportunity for the tail to wag the dog. Without wanting to profit from those who have had shunts I think we could drive Nissan to market pricing by:-
• Establish a company to purchase crash vehicles (say £1K or £2K a share for working capital - 15 to 20 shareholders)
• Contract with one (or more) of the many forum members who have the capability to strip, document, package, store and ship the perfect components. ( give or throw away anything which requires refurbishment)
• Pricing philosophy is to calculate component pricing based on recovering working capital, contractor’s agreed costs and providing working capital for the next car.
Based on what I was told by HPC the component cost of a replacement GTR is about 9 x the cost of buying one. So, on this logic we will be able to sell original and available components many many times cheaper than Nissan.
No question WE have the audience on this forum to buy the available components. By reprocessing perfect parts will force Nissan (PR and reduced sales) to further evaluate pricing
Working capital and measured profit would be returned to the shareholders when the market becomes more “Balanced”
