No mate, it’s NIOA and the dollar and...?
When I went into shop to buy one a couple weeks ago, I was quoted $1800 as per the book sent to shops for years 19/20 (they showed me) then they rang to order and price went to $2200 - as well as lengthy wait time. I told a friend who bought one in 95 for $900 brand new, it’s probably gone up in value lol
