W00t - i'm totally getting that proton

So did you win it? Looked like there were two bidders.

It's incredible the amount of used stuff on eBay that be found new and cheap or even free elsewhere. Owners manuals are a prime example. The entire VX glove box package is only $25 new.

Not exactly the easiest website to navigate if you're not a dealer - I'm guessing they design it that way to try and keep the eBay scalpers from buying them up. I wonder if that's where the eBay guys get their supply? What a scam if it is...

Yeah, I was gonna post the link right to the VX manuals, but I think it was a session type link and wouldn't work for long. Isuzu has a link for Helm on their site for owners to get manuals, so Helm is the official supplier.

Buy 'em for $25 and sell 'em for $90-100 on eBay.

OK, never heard of Helm before, thanks! Now I'm all edjumacated!
Glad you saved me from myself!

In case you didn't, there's another Proton 1:43 model for sale in Germany, ships worldwide:

I'm pretty sure it's the same as a Cararama, just marketed under a different name.
