Found this whilst trawling through eBay, anyone bidding on it?
Think its a uk model, has the back light gap and weird number plate assembly.
Says he has it advertised elsewhere for £550, is that a good price for whats left of it?

Im unsure about it. The stamp on the frame doesnt look right and i cant see the oil cooler, But it does have the right reg light and seat unit

Hmm, a lot to pay for some bits, a group buy maybe!!

Looking at it closer, i dont even think thats a stamp on the frame, also says date of 1st registration 1997.

Kris

nah import, with a uk spec tail oddly enough.

Well it's definitely got an oil cooler fitted,
the bit that throws me is the reg,the first official ones were on a g plate 1990.

Thats interesting.

Maybe its had a UK engine, or the oil coolers been modded.

Bit of info from DVLA....

Hmmmm if it was a uk spec would it not of been classed as new at 1st registration? well thats what mine says i think anyway but currently miss placed my v5 so cant check, sure one of the other guys with the uk spec could check their v5.
