Guest Simon* Report post Posted March 11, 2009 It's there alright, but no pic and listed as an auto. If you go to the cin card and check the vin it shows as a manual. Almost as if someone's playing silly buggers?It's not unusual Dave. All these wise heads who reckon they "know their cars" will swear black and blue there's no such thing as a manual 540. It happens to me time and again.They roll their eyes and say, no you're thinking of the M5 .....blah blah Hope someone nabs this and does something cool with it. Am still gutted for you Cain that they didn't agree to sell you the wreck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
