THe ad was typed (I'm sure) by his secretary/office coordinator who's been handling the conversation about the car. What would be a fair price or the max range for the SDL - about $2000-2500?
Does every SDL have the Trap Oxidizer, or only some models?! I didn't see it in the engine bay photos, but it may not be visible..
Also, what about the DIY factor - I've been getting pretty comfortable maintaining my 300D with your help here, not sure about the 603 - it looks somewhat more complicated.
