    How can this seller ship such a heavy box to U.K. for only $40?

    RR its missing the tape door but 3D Printing nowadays can work miracles.
    Ofcourse you can still find a spare door for the unit .
    Nevertheless i am happy that you did find this Crown in particular i knew
    how much you wanted one of those. ::))

    Crown is here lads, shit packing but hey she survived fully intact, such a beautiful box and I also have a door thanks to the legend Nick Eccles

    all working and sounds beautiful, better than the m90 and more powerful than the crown 980...

    All I need to do now is get my engineer to sort out the belts and motor, deffo the cheapest buy iv had in a good few years

    nice one Lads:wink::thumbsup:

    Thanks hugo lad, you don't need a review mate, just get one if you can, it's a must have box.....not you're usual rubbish you would expect from crown...

    been polishing her and even found the original thin prtective plastic was still on the box, so iv removed that and she is now gleaming lads, rock on:thumbup:
