Yes looks like the Mk 1 version.  No tape head cover - mising (available from Germany).  Many claim these to be serviced but realy true, factor in a 250 dollar service and at worst a relapping of heads, new brake bands and a recap.  There is a bloke in Oz now advertising on ebay a complete cap kit for around 70 bucks.  If the motor bearings are nacked then more work is required.  I have a Mk 3 PR99 and they are OK machines.
