Second hand inspo help please

[jamesp]

hoping for a little help guys.


I`m looking at a 99 vintage inspo. The price is good, so I ran the serial no through AP for a history, it came back as follows:
RTB cell error on ascent. Found to be wet cell, battery box replaced.
Full service with new solenoid as original corroded(unit3 years old)
RTB cell missing. Found to be corroded cell wires (unit 5 1/2 years old)

AP advise that each service involves recrimping the loom, so a new loom may be on the near horizon.

Does this sound like a reasonable run? (I know there appear to be a few hounds out there), would this be normal use/lack of TLC or flood damage?

how scary is the new loom option?

Unit appeared in good condition with minimal cosmetic damage to handsets. Was being used at depths well beyond me, so appears to function ok.( I viewed it post dive)

Anything else I should check out?

The cell erors seem to fit with the age and use of the unit. The service is obviously fine. My unit needed a recrimp after a couple of years too.

You'd need to check with APD, but I would expect a new lom to be £300ish.

How much is it for sale at? Why is it for sale?

I would advise taking an inspo user along to test the unit tho.
