Still classed as 89 for the one year groupset as far as i have known, parts serial ID may be dating the year groupset was made or maybe the saddle has a date stamp but that just proves the year the part was made.... bare in mind the new bikes were released close to the end of the previous year! As for price......they're all over the place, best to put high on eBay for the max but I'm thinking £250 and best offer.
Just my say.

She's a beauty, super clean.
That's the problem with pricing from eBay ads though. It's fine if you compare against what someone else ideally wants to get for their said bike. And that bike/frame stays advertised on eBay for 6 months - sometimes well over a year+!
Look at completed/sold listings and if you can't find exact model and year then find similar as possible using your retro knowledge and compare. But even then that could have been a one off at height of the controlavirus I mean Coronavirus where two people really, really wanted it.
I reckon £250 is a Retrobike price,as we all know complete bikes don't hit the same money unless they are special or unicorns. But imo (for what it's worth) I can see this Kona on eBay as summer coming up as well probably hitting £300 ish
How long have you had it Steve, and if it's not too long do you mind me asking if it cost a lot? Sometimes when it comes to selling bikes I'm not overly attached to it can come down to a simple thing. Am I losing money on it....
