That has to be worth a watch for anyone wanting one. It's rare they come up on eBay but do look at it and confirm it's good before bidding. Also check very carefully it is complete with both 16 pin and 30 pin diagnostic socket cables. They are hard to source and not easy to make up.

Check that it boots up cleanly but don't worry over the time it takes. They do take a long, long time to boot. Listen for clicks and clunks from the hard disk signifying it is dying.

Don't be surpriesed if the battery is dead and the CD ROM is duff. Both common faults and fixable, as is a dying hard disk.

It is worth checking that it comes with a full set of CDs including the recovery CD and update CDs which were issued quite regularly. V37 was one of the last.

Wiring diagram CDs are worth thier weight in gold as the Lexia has a facility for displaying them on-screen.

Once you have one, you'll wonder how you ever managed without one...
