Title: great deal on safari snorkels
Post by: muddyjames on January 05, 2006, 16:28:27

After alot of searching I have found safari snorkels for a lot less money than anywhere else. The place to go is Paddocks www.padockspares.com as I have just bought a snorkel for £144 + about £15 vat. If you order online you get free P and P as well. a snorkel for under £160! That is the cheapest I have found for a Safari one. If you know of any where cheaper please do  not tell me as I  may cry!

No please do tell us if you find one cheaper as I am purchasing one for Johnty at the end of this month for his disco 1. We were going to order from Paddocks, as after looking round they were the cheapest I could find, but if someone knows where to get one cheaper that would be great! Ok......... so maybe it would be a bit mean to post it on here but you can pm me if you know somewhere cheaper  :wink:

Thanks for that but you have postage on top of their price which actually makes them about 8 quid more! Well I think I will stick with Paddocks...... we get a lot from there and know they are reliable but thanks anyway guys  :D

If it helps folks, you know the way the grills on Safari Snorkels tend to break the second they come into contact with a twig - let alone a branch - well I just happen to know where one can purchase a stainless steel replacement!

Supplied by out 'n' out off-roader Cheyne ‘Mr Mole’ Walker (the big guy who drives a blue crew cab Defender 130 and ran the Mud Run for me at the National 4x4 Show Shuttleworth), he too got miffed when his grill broke. Unable to buy a replacement (apart from another crappy plastic one) he simply went out and had a batch made.

He flogs them for £20 and I can personally vouch for the quality. If you want one send me a PM and I'll pass on his mobile number.

Which one to get for the Mpi?  Im thinking the 300tdi with ABS as the airbox is the same.

Anyone else got a Mpi with one fitted?

Typical.
I paid the normal Paddocks price a couple of months ago.
