"Caged" Group Buy

[CBetts]

Hi Guys,
I have been making some enquiries with regards to the "caged" half cage. The exact same ones used by Motor Sport Vision on there clio's. I know there are a few people after one, including myself. They are willing to do a group buy for us! The normal price for the half cage would be £850 + Vat Installed.

They will do them at £580 + Vat. The only problem is that they no longer have the jig for this cage, so we will need a favour from someone who lives near there workshop, and wants this cage! They will need a clio for a few days so they can make one up bespoke. Then they have a template to work from to make the others up. If you are wanting the cage fitted by them it will cost you £650 + Vat. They will do this price for 4 or more cages!

What do you all think?

There Address Is -
Caged Manufacturing Limited
Unit 4
Ashton Park
Handlemaker Road
Frome
BA11 4RW

Ill be the donner car if the cage is free lol

 

[CBetts]

Cage won't be free i doubt, you could try http://www.therollcagepeople.com/

 

[Clgale88]

Ow it was worth a try lol

Thats still £681.50 inc VAT

Its a great looking cage, i wonder how much the Saftey devices one from Mark Fish is though?

Fair enough if its compairable but an OMP Full bolt in cage is about £500.

Seems a bit on the high side price wise

 

[CBetts]

Safety devices cage is about £1100, with install i think. it's only £650 if you want them to fit it. otherwise it will be £580 + Vat

something for you to consider, the safety devices cage, i used just the rear hoop of mine for 12 months.

Its not as easy and simple to fit at the caged one but I think the full Safety Devices cage isnt much off the standard price of the caged one.


If Caged were going to make these again I would ask them to do so with a harness bar.

The added advantage of the safety devices cage is that the rear seats can still be used simply by removing the harnesses bar, (2 bolt and 2 brackets) I had 5 people in my 182 with the cage.

Fitting the rear hoop with harness bar as a bolt in cage is certainly something I could now do its not as difficult as it seams, I know someone fitted a full SD cage themself recently.

If you are interested I can talk to Mark Fish about the posibility of a group buy, full cage or just rear hoops for anyone,

for the record iv got nothing against Caged just seams like a lot of work when there is a cage out there ready to go, depends if your planning on using the car for trackdays or just want the cage for fast road/show

£580 + VAT is £681.50 :rasp:

Or do you mean £580 Inc VAT

Would be interested in a quote for the SD Rear Hoop to Compaire costs TBQH before commiting either way.

 

[CBetts]

If mark fish can do the safety devices cage at a good price, then im up for that. I know it's gonna be hard work with "caged" as someone has to agree to use there car as a test dummy. I maybe doing the occasional trackday but mostly want it for fast road/show.

Would you want the full cage or just the rear hoop with removable harness bar/diagonal

It means all 5 seats are usable with the SD cage. I can give mark a call and see what he can do for you guys.

 

[CBetts]

Personally I would want just the rear hoop & the harness bar. Take it this is a bolt in job? same as the "caged" one?

 

[-J-]

Just the rear Hoop for me to with Bar.

 

[d4ve86]

well, mine is bolted in, but its not bolted to the original seat/seat belt mounts.

it is bolted through the rear arch, and through the floor. Can find you some pictures of mine if you like?

 

[CBetts]

Yeah some pics would be good mate. So could these be delivered to us? and fitted ourselves. or would we need to go to mark fish to get them fitted?

 

[d4ve86]

ill go take a couple of pics now,

it could be fitted yourself, but its not as straight forward as the caged one, will need to drill the car etc but its a proper job ...

 

[-J-]

Think I would be happy fitting myself if the price was right to purchase just the rear hoop and bar

Will wait and see what Mark Fish can do price wise before i commit to the Caged one.

 

[CBetts]

Ok, we gonna need 2 prices then i reckon. 1 for the cage & Delivery, and the other for the cage & Fitting. Just found a project thread which belongs to D4ve, + interior pics! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=311387

 

[-J-]

Thats a great Project and a stunning car - like the look of the SD cage as well.

 

[d4ve86]

is there enough pics in there for u guys?

 

[CBetts]

Yeah thats good mate, Like the cage alot! and love your car! Just need some good prices now.

 

[-J-]

If the price is reasonable for the SD rear Hoop I have a mate who might be interested as well.

 

[CBetts]

Any News on this yet mate?

 

[d4ve86]

had to work all day today didnt get a chance to phone mark, will do tomorrow or ill pop down and see him on friday.

I should have prices from Mark by Monday. Just spoke to him. He has to get back to Safety Devices for the latest costs.

He has a few full cages in stock too. I would say that the cost will be very competitive compared to the Caged one.

I previously spoke to them about 3 months ago about doing this group buy, and they wouldn't negotiate on price at all. I thought it was very expensive especially with the additional harness bar and delivery costs and VAT etc

Watch this space.
