Scam by any chance, or have we missed the bargain of the year ?

I'd have bought that! and I dont need another one!

Well I can't find any detrimental history on the car and it appears to have been imported into the UK pretty early on in its life. I can only think that it didn't actually sell or the sale was withdrawn. It's a 2006MY car too, not even a 2005.

It's back at a higher price now.

Looks well cared for to me? Has the expensive OE Goodyear Eagle FI Supercar RF tyres (presumably replacements at that mileage). And little rust on the matt grey wheel hubs/inner unswept circumference of the brake discs (may have been repainted/treated?).

Nothing in the UK, except you can add a module that allows ipod control.

can you get all UK FM radio stations with it being a US unit?

You don't need XM for the ipod interface, Ray Kawal makes a version that works on an all C6 radios and nav.

Have you had it working on a euro car?, I contacted them ages ago and they said they don't work on the euro cars

His web-site does indeed still say: "For European customers, I'm sorry to say I don't have a solution for you. The European UL2 option has a different firmware for the European frequencies and your radios will not recognize a PAL or an XM band. "

we're well off topic now!

Im close to removing the stock unit and putting an aftermarket one in, not what I wanted to do really. I love the HUD integration, but other than that the stock unit is pants.

Nope only the odd numbered stations.

I fitted an iPod connector to my 2008 C6 Z06, can't remember the brand but did the job, think I got it off of Ebay.

Scams are like an epidemic. I reported this for being too cheap and plainly being an American ad but it's still there!
