Hi, no it is not Perreaux. But interesting that you mention them.

If you are as old as me they may have been in Napier when you were looking at them. I seem to recall that they subsequently went through hard times, may have even shut up shop prior to restarting down in Dunedin (I may recall that incorrectly though) where they have been for quite some years now.

About 2 years back one of the big brown box retailers here started stocking Perreaux equipment but I see they are now clearing it out - I suspect much too pricy for their type of market, and still too pricey for me even at clearance prices .

EDIT: I should add that when I say "big brown box retailer" that they are minnows compared to those in North America.
