Mercian...... ?

Just got back on site after a long absence and I'm looking for someone who knows Mercian bike models. I'm looking at buying one, it's Reynolds 653 fork and frame, frame looks like a 1990's Mercian Professional, forks look like 1990's Mercian Pro Lugless. I can put up some pics if anyone has any experience with these bikes and what are the best identifying features. Don't have the serial number at the moment. Thanks all.
Just found out I can't upload pics as I don't have enough posts on this site.
Basically the bike has long spearhead lugs at the bottom of the downtube and seat tube and both ends of the top tube which I've seen on an early nineties Mercian Professional. The forks have Cinelli sloped fork crown. It has Dura Ace group set if that helps. Has anyone got a mid nineties Mercian with the above features?

Finally collected the bike (edit) just noticed the style of the name looks different than the regular Mercian decal style.

Dura ace calipers and derailleurs


Campagnolo chain rings and cranks
