Trying to remember what the last MK II that surfaced went for at auction. I think it was from a Scottish recording studio, and didn't Brian Kehew end up with it? Can't remember if it was $12K or $20K, but that was before it went to Streetly(?) for its restoration and then shipping to the states.
The bottom line is these machines are extremely rare, and you'd be better off saving for a new M5000 from Streetly (dual manual, 48 different sounds), for, under the current exchange rate, less than $20,000. Of course, you may win the lottery. Sure, a MK II would be nice, but for less, you get much more current (and reliable) technology.
PS - you'll see an Ochestron long before that MK II shows up.
