Well after weeks of waiting it's finally been delivered (In the right time slot as well).
So first things, the box appears to have been re-taped so i open it to find that the tv it's self seams new. Turn it on for the first time and the initial set-up starts which is a good sign. Then as it's running through the set-up i decide to have a look in the manual.
This is were we start going down hill, the manual seems like it's a photo copy a bad one at that, all the diagrams are black not just slightly i mean solid black.
Next as the set-up continues it askes me for the language so i select english then it asks me for the country but the only english speaking country in the list is Ireland, which is making start to belive that this is not a UK model.
So finding this I check the Plug and what do i find, the plug is acctually a european 2 pin plug encased within a uk 3 pin adapter.
Ok so maybe they are all like this I think, so on my way back to work i stop in my local currys and check out one of there KV's, check the plug standard hardwired 3 pin Uk, so then i check the set-up select english but nothing comes up after that no country selection.
In anyone's experience would you say that this is an import ?
As for picture well thats less than perfect as well lots of bleed over and lots of slant on the left side.
Maybe i'm not looking at the set with an open mind at the moment because of everything else, plus my current cable's are crap.
Also yes it buzzes from the back but not to badly i can only hear it with the sound turned down.

But as far as I am aware there should be no difference and as I hunted for the best price the likelyhood is it would be an import
