I have this HU, agree with you not all that special. I have the original invoice for the car from the previous owner, he paid over £1800 for the MFD2 and ipod prep...... :scared:

If I'm honest Johnny, you'd be lucky if you got 150 quid for it, but you never know as there are a few on eBay for silly money.

Post by: Nasir on September 03, 2011, 01:47:01 pm: I'd say you'd get £200 for it, still has some navigation and it is colour screen. Although the chrome would be worth more, naturally.

Post by: mortygttdi on September 03, 2011, 04:40:49 pm: The last one I sold in good condition I got £250 :happy2: that was on ebay so just try your luck if it doesn't go the first time put the price down a bit.
