Looks nearly like mine apart from its a basic 2.0 which makes the price a frikking good laugh. What wally would think that its worth that much?
God might love a trier but the rest of the world thinks differently. Who knows though, there might be some pranny with a like mind willing to pay through the nose for it  ::)

I thought this would have been a 2.2L but no, had it confirmed that it is a 2.0L.... ::) ::)

He asked me to suggest a price if we think this is too dear, so what do you think? and don't be rude he may be watching... :) :)

2.0ltr F/L CDX`s are few & far between, even moreso in manual guise. Taking that into account, a monkey the very absolute max

If it's the same bloke selling it that I've seen driving it since the OOFer sold it, I suspect English isn't his first language...

A 'monkey'? If a monkey is what I think (500) then no way. Even that is too much for the underpowered 2.0! More so when it lacks the later additions and refinements. Try 3 to 4 and it will (might) sell.
Anyway asking that exhorbitent original amount shows the sellers is a bit on the slow side when it comes to reality.
It gave us all a good  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D anyway  :D ;)

A monkey if the buyer knows absolutely zilch about Omega values. Personally he`d struggle to get £250 from me :y
