A quick google search shows that it is around the £250 mark from UK retailers.
So it may not actually be much cheaper (if at all) from the USA by the time you add shipping and customs.
But.... I do agree with you to a point, when Schumachers factory is on Moulton Park industrial estate which I could physically drive to and pick up the goods from the door in about 20 minutes from my home, then I would expect to be paying less than people in the USA who have had to have to goods shipped half way around the world....

Ahh - But you also need to compare it against the prices for a B4.1 and a TLR22. Those are also much cheaper in the US. The Cougar is simply priced close to its competition.
This does mean that in the UK market Schumacher (or the model shop, or the tax man) make more per car than in the US.
