I whole heartedly agree that my W101 is a far superior set but it's the Jetsons space age styling of the Predicta which appeals to me.
I wouldn't bother with any other imported vintage set and I'm always on the lookout for another resto candidate locally but they are not easily found at a reasonable price (ebay has seen to that).
Space is a problem also.
My W101 has pride of place in my loungeroom next to our 55Inch OLED with 60 years separating them.
I don't think I'll be allowed to put another restored telly in there any time soon though.
