Bump.
Just had a viewing lined up but cancelled as the chap's mechanic said these are beset by mechanical and electrical issues and to steer clear. :wallbash: Really?
Some may be aware it's for sale but I thought I'd post it up here too....
Much work done to it - details all in the ad.
46k miles. Japanese import.
Currently sorting a running issue with it - have just replaced the MAF with a new Bosch item, but will need further investigation and this will...

I wonder whether there’s a voltage issue with some of these. Could an aging battery cause them to flicker?
On mine I changed the bulbs a couple of weeks ago and it’s not done it since, but will keep an eye on it.
