Opinions on the Lidl 102mm Bresser scope from last year?

    If anyone bought and used the Bresser 102mm f/10 refractor on the manual equatorial mount, can you tell me what you thought of it? I have an option on one in almost unused condition at a half-decent price and I would like to know if it's worth having this scope in a collection? If I do get it I know that it should be possible to get the dual-axis motors and make life a bit easier.
    I've already got an ETX-70, and an 8" Dob. I'll be bringing my current eyepiece collection with me (2" and 1.25" Meade plossls and SWA/UWA) so I'm not that bothered with the supplied eyepieces.

    Are there any real problems with the scope?
    Did anyone motorise the mount? Is there anything that I should know about the supplied mount before possibly buying it?

    Thanks, Cathal.
