Hi, yes you're right, it is a manual. The owner took a picture of the VIN plate for me..here's a link. http://auctionboutique.com/usersdirs/1461/vin_number_1_.jpg The number he told me is correct as you can see, and it is coming up as invalid on carfax as well as carsoup. Any idea why this is happening?
