1999 3.0 MV6 Manual in silver. Everything works, but I am breaking it. Everything available except headlamp washers which are already missing! Doors are rusty at the tops, but everything else is good.

Has Xenons, CCRT700 radio/Cd changer/phone system, MV6 cloth seats, manual gearbox, 17" MV6 Alloys which need a refurb or good clean-up, one brand spanking new tyre, Climate panel, all electric windows, tilting steering, good fog lights, good front bumper, good front wings, good bonnet, carbon fibre door cards and console, hi-rise rear brake light, good discs, good calipers, newish centre exhausts (genuine vx ones)

Engine is as sweet as a nut. I will strip the engine for cams, plenum, throttle bodies and intake ducting, plus all sensors, ancillkiaries UNLESS someone wants the whole engine. Dave drove it back from Peterborough and it drives fine. Gearbox is perfect as is clutch.

Also has Cruise, which is available to MarksDTMCalib first refusal.

Every other bit you can think of for a 3.0 MV6 saloon, so ask away.

I will not give stuff away, but won't rip you off either. Make me an offer for anything by PM. I can only say yes or no.

I will move this to the for sale scetion later tonight.

My daddy said will the cruise control fit his 1998 MV6?

If so, can he have second dibs please?

Would't say that, the pictures on AT hid the rust very well, but cheers

Seriously though, if its not that bad:

A. The new owner could sort it.
B. Have a go yourself... take all the rust off. Tinist amount of filler to smooth out the bumps, and some colour match spray....

Markie · « **Reply #7 on:** 19 August 2006, 17:52:00 »

Xenon headlights (real ones) WITH gebuyine working bulbs and ballast units £100 pair.

Some '99 MV6's going for above 2k on AT....

** edit... guess there is more money in stripping it!

Markie · « **Reply #10 on:** 19 August 2006, 17:58:28 »

Yup i thought that same as my cdx

Ronnie your (probably deliberatly) under estimating a lot

Fogs will go for £40 - 50

Also its amazing what some people will buy - the odd switch here and there etc

Good Luck

How long do you think it wil take you ?

TheBoy · « **Reply #11 on:** 19 August 2006, 17:59:44 »

Fogs are arounf £50 each from dealer, and around £20 - £25 on ebay, so I reckon £15 is a very good price...

Markie · « **Reply #12 on:** 19 August 2006, 18:02:27 »

Wing mirrors as well - sold mine for £35. It all adds up!

Bo Bo · « **Reply #13 on:** 19 August 2006, 18:20:02 »

Can I have first dibs on the alloys?

RonaldMcBurger · « **Reply #14 on:** 19 August 2006, 18:23:12 »

OK, Cams SOLD so Engine no longer available as a whole working one.

The car will be totally stripped and crushes within a week.

Every usable part is coming off. Switches, relayts, fuses, screws. The lot.

Be quick if you want anything. I know what everything is worth so no silly offers, but I'm not greedy. Just making a quick buck and end of story.

Fogs - I have two sets, all working. Side indiactor lamps by the bucketful.

Spaeksrs anyone? Speaker covers? Mirror switch? Electric mirrors?

This is the time to name that part and ask......

tunnie · « **Reply #15 on:** 19 August 2006, 18:29:02 »

RonaldMcBurger · « **Reply #19 on:** 19 August 2006, 20:09:46 »

Front Grille? Yes Louis. Yours if you want it. PM me and I will get details etc.....

Speakers, I think black yes, so if you wnat the front drivers one no problem Tunnie....

JamesV6CDX · « **Reply #20 on:** 20 August 2006, 03:03:19 »

Hiya Fin, what are the 6 HT leads like? Have they been soaked in oil?

Mine are pretty awful, and seeing as my Omega is an N reg CDX V6 with 120k, I am not too particular about using new GM parts as long as I keep it on the road (I'm saving for a facelift elite!)

If the leads are in very good nick, what do you want for them, out of interest?

Cheers
James

RonaldMcBurger · « **Reply #21 on:** 20 August 2006, 08:23:38 »

The drivers bank leads are new, passenegre side I can't tell yet. I was going to keep them for me - just in case TBH. DIS pack is also staying, unless anyone wants to make me an offer on either/both?

nigsey1600e · « **Reply #22 on:** 20 August 2006, 08:29:06 »

This car has REAL Xenons and TILTING STEERING WHEEL. Alloys will be very cheap and it has one BRAND NEW 17" tyre!

Exhaust mid sections are fairly new and Genuine VX ones!

Picture the whole car. Everything is available from the engine (what is now left) to a single screw. If you need it, let me know. No freebies but I am not a shark either.

Few prices if you can please! (will see what I can afford)

ABS ECU (just hope it matches the same as mine, duno what number it is yet!)
Rear Leccy Windows & switches & such...
Fuel-flap locking solenoid
the plastic lining/covering/whatever it is which sits infront of the battery (follows the line of the middle section with all the german warning stickers on, etc...)
Central arm rest (if it has it) just the spring for the locking clip
N/S boot-hatch fog light plastic glass covering thingy

Appologies for any spelling mistakes or sounding a little dumb on describing items, but I just finished a night shift at work and feel like crap!

sounds2k · « **Reply #44 on:** 21 August 2006, 20:12:05 »

is the wiring loom for the CCRT system complete, is it the Bose setup? If so, I'd be interested in restoring that setup in my old omega that got butchered. This means I'd need the head unit and cage, wiring loom from driver's kick panel to amp under parcel shelf and back to speakers (unless there are any joins in between?) and the amplifier. It has the correct speakers in the doors and the parcel shelf though.

Does the MV6 have a rear blind, if so does it work and what colour is the interior - I'm after a dark grey one ...

Marks DTM Calib · « **Reply #45 on:** 21 August 2006, 21:57:25 »

Its MV6 so no Bose.

Just taken the following off for MrMcB

Cams
Cruise (available as I am not having)
Alternator
Plenum
Inlet
Air trunking and multiram
Rad

Plus other odds and sods.

Heads tomorrow etc.....

Mr McB will post a full list, thats just what I removed!
