Advice on ebay motorised dish pack

I have recently purchased a Skystar2 and I'm now in the process of trying to find myself a decent(ish) motorised dish setup. I have found the following on Ebay and want to know if its a good choice - and if not, could you please point me in the right direction.

Ebay item 260070540093

Many thanks,
Chris

My System: Sky+, DB 7000s, Gemini 4.3 in flash, Var on USB stick. Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Unaohm EP313, Swires Annie 204 Spectrum, Rover ST-4 Spectrum.

It looks OK, but not sure about the dish and you will also need to buy a set of brackets and mast.

This is another seller who thinks it is good to flood the page with a load of guff, why don't they learn that less is more.

Thanks for your advice guys. I'm off to Cyprus for a few days, but will be purchasing the system recomended on my return. In a desperate attempt to test my card today, I unplugged the sky+ box and connected the mini dish up to my ss2. Am happy to report that all worked well.

My System: Triax TD88 dish w/ 4 LNBs (13E, 19E, 23.5E, 28E), Skystar2 2.6 with March beta drivers, Vista, DVBViewer.

I've also got one of those type of kits off Ebay , although mine was a Triax TD88 dish with the Moteck 2100. Works really well with the SS2 when you understand its quirks (install driver 4.4.0, use the mibi ***** at dvbskystar with ssdiseqc).
