I agree with Category4, check the serial number over VR’s toll free number, take ya about 2 minutes.
If it’s stolen I believe VR hands those over to the LEO’s in Cinnci, then you lose $100 plus shipping, best to be safe. If it is not stolen get it for $100 and have VR do a tune up on it, sweet deal!
BC ;)
X2 sounds like a good deal to me. If you weren't looking to use then you could upgrade then put it up on ebay and make a pretty good profit. :rock:Quote:

100 dollars for a 1.8 is a hell of a deal, period. Id just ask him for a picture of the serial, then call VR and make sure that the unit isnt stolen.
then... GO BUY IT! :eek:
I called VR ,and they told me NO problem with serial #.....
they said I should do upgrade $139 plus 22 shipping,,, $30 extra for brand new casing..
I'm sure everyone will tell you here not to upgrade if it's a pre pop Unit ,Quote:

Serial Number 1166870625
Our POP Upgrade* for this series of V1 will produce the following benefits:
Full Coverage on POP—covers POP on two bands—specifically the MPH Industries models BEE III (Ka band) and Enforcer (K and Ka).
POP Coverage is Automatic:
There's nothing you must do to activate POP coverage. It's built in, and it operates full time.
How to identify V1s upgraded to two-band POP:
V1 powers up with test sequence of warning lights and sounds. At the conclusion of the test, just before the mode indicator appears in the Bogey Counter, you will see a sequence of “P…o…P” on V1s with two-band POP coverage.
* A new warning: When the signal-identification system determines that a current warning is, in fact, a spurious signal transmitted by another detector, it notifies you with a “dee-dah-doo” sound and terminates the warning. At the same time, the letter “J” will flash briefly in the Bogey Counter.
* Euro Mode: You will enjoy longer radar range and fewer false alarms in Europe and some other countries outside the U.S. Euro Mode adapts V1’s radar sensitivity to the way they use radar for photo enforcement. It narrows and intensifies radar coverage to K and the sections of Ka bands applied there to photo radar. X band is not covered in Euro Mode. (V1 is already optimized for North American radar as it comes from the factory. Euro Mode is not appropriate for driving here.)
This upgrade will install the Euro Mode but you must activate it. To activate, see Ask Mike - Report #3
One-year limited warranty starting at upgrade date, same as new units.
*POP Upgrade plus Euro Mode: As soon as we receive your old unit (in operable condition with no tampering of the serial number) we’ll install revised firmware and some new hardware, then return it to you in the shortest possible time with a new serial number to indicate its revised capability.
PRICE: $139 plus shipping
