Reading throu this has confused me, 3 seater should be not a sandman, shouldn't it? In any case, with that and Brisbane built with no XU3 on tags would at the least reduce its value, and therefore its collectability or even worse cast dispersions (is that the right word/, is that even a word??) on its originality.

Anyhow, hope it works out OK for you, and I would be happy to own it no matter how it turns out

cheers
