My local dealer has got back to me today and quoted AUD$22,000 for upgrading a pair of D-Premiers to a D1000 Pro. Yes that's AUD$22K (translates into nearly £13K at current exchange rate)
Seems as if D-Premier owners are going to be stitched up for the D1000 pro upgrade. I was quoted AUD$6k (£3.5K) for a single upgrade from D-Premier to D250, and that was only 5 months ago
Either that or the new Devialet Distributor here in Oz is really taking the [email=*%@^()&$%]*%@^()&$%[/email]
Can't wait to find out how much the upgrades are costing back in the UK, and other countries to find out if it's Devialet hitting hard old D-Premier owners, or if it's the Oz distributor taking the ..........
So it may actually be cheaper to upgrade the D-Prems to 800s (assuming the option is still available which I'm guessing it isn't?) and then upgrade to 1000Pro. Logical!
I'm still pondering selling my D200 to buy a used D120 to upgrade to the new upgraded model. That's if D200 values don't fall to match D120 overnight.
