I took the plunge!
The Manuals are missing but the remote is there. I have a Pronto which should have no problem with the Philips TV. they said that they will have to dig out the rear speakers for me. Not much of a problem either as I run a Dolby Digital amp anyway. There is a mark on the front left of the unit but not so much as to worry me. The wife might complain but when I tell her I got it £250 cheaper then she might not notice the mark anyway. 1 year in home warranty so it is not that bad a deal!
 
BTW for Ian and Keith - it is BLACK!!!!

Michael,
 
Depends if you have a Pronto, can find a CCF for the TV and have an inquisitive mind.  Manager specials at Currys tend to mean sold as seen, remote and instructions missing.  A missing remote would certainly me off buying one.
 
You could always watch the match down the pub!

Thanks Keith,

It is an Philps integrated Digital TV, 100Hz Pro-Logic. They offer 1 year
guarantee in your home. Coverplan stuff is £109 for 3 years. I'm not too
fussed if it is scuffed because I would probably do that myself :-) I
haven't had a look at it yet but may take a run up at lunchtime.

here it is ;http://www.electrobug.com/ProductDetail.asp?productID=13555 if
anyone is interested.

Michael
