He's looking for top money, should have employed a decent photographer, instead of using his bloody phone, . And that means my ultra rare MV6 should have been @£5000. That had full history from new.
Bonnet gaps aren't even on the front corners, and the Buy It Now price is the same as the opening bid. And it's got the wrong gearbox... Unless the price includes a new AR35...

That said, it is unique and clearly looks clean, but not sure if it is genuinely worth half that :-\

Interestingly, it has been MoTd every year, which is reassuring  :y


Got a run-in one that's had new filters and oil,, sitting here. :)

But no Omega to put it in...  ;D

Normally, in the case of Omegas, I'd agree with everyone saying autos are the law. The Omega manual is awful.

However, the auto box is just unsuited to the Omega TD, and the engine is much, much better on the manual.

Don't trust everything your employer tells you :D although yours does have the best automated manual available  ;)

Ive said this before and I,ll say it again, on the 3.2 Manuals that were fitted with the R32 boxes, fit a short shift and bend it slightly towards the Drivers side and its a whole new experience, especially when the LSD kicks in.  ;)

.......it does not even come with a V6 lump, instead it comes with an engine from a cement mixer. :-\
But cement mixers don't need an engine change every couple of months. ;)

Not any more. I have had treatment that cured me.

By the way, varcheland now has a strict one in / one out policy. We are currently in Northern France waiting for you to take your flight over. Hope you have a good holiday. :y
