help identifying 90's univega nuovo sport

Can anyone tell from this pic? It is described as "early 90's". Looked around online could not find any catalogs. Anyone know what year this is? Opinions on if its a good deal?

It looks nice in the pictures. $200 is reasonable (IMO) if you're not buying for a flip. Why didn't you buy it?

I bought it for my son, 200 bucks. Seller was not original owner and did not have much detail. I suspect it is around an 88, and might be smaller than a 52. Here are some better pics. Seller had replaced seat and seat post.

Serial number is OW33473



I looked at the 2 letter codes on the shimano parts, but seems all over the map (some as late as 94). I got the 88 date from this post Late 80's Univega

Based on serial number, looks like maybe this frame was made by Miyata in1986

It looks to be a mid 80's model with some upgraded replaced components. My ques is the frame is about 48-50 cc with a 52 top tube.
