Well, where do I begin? This is the dirtiest and worst kept Omega I have seen - bar none!

There are screws, nuts and bolts strewn throughout the car. The scuttle is broken and hanging on by fresh air, the plenum has been off recently, but not put back on correctly, there is filth and dirt everywhere, every part of the car is scratched, dented or broken.

To help visualise this mess take a butchers at these:























First things first, mecahnics. Engine is throwing oil out the passenger side rocker because there is no gasket in there. Also passenger side manifold blowing. I still think a new engine and box is possible, but I have to consider whether it is justified.

I could get it all running right(ish) and give it agood clean, then sell it on. Or spend a lot more tiome and effort and do it right. Mmmmm. We'll see, there is no rush.

No doubt, all will be revealed shortly, eh!, RMB.

Anyway, I'm sure you will make the right decision. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

No rush.     Whats this all about then?

Quote :-          Where are you? I may be interested in the whole car. What year, reg, mileage? Pics paint a zillion words too.

I think your eyeing up project 14 already

[Markie]

So i guess by the state - it will never be perfect ( uneconomical) so i guess it aint staying for the missus ?

I saw this yesterday for a brief moment, then it disappeared! (or at least I can't find it!)  :-? How does he find 'em?  

This is my guess!

Oi Tunnie.....altho it has the same mats as mine....Halfrauds finest  
Mine is cleaned at least once a week inside and out.....not all taxi drivers are lazy and carnt be arsed to clean their car

That pic of the door Ron with the scratches.....is a problem when using magnetic door stickers.....i use them on mine and you have to be carefull with them.....they will scratch the door badly if you plonk them on and then try to adjust them.....i take them completely off and place on again to correct straightness etc

I can second this!  Working nights at a petrol station, you see quite a trend and difference between drivers...

young ones & those who drive like a fool, there always dirty, smokey, screwed...

then you get those who park up, fill, and spend at least half an hour cleaning the cabs each night!

Thankyou Tunnie..i'll let you off  ...altho still does have lighter missing.....they didnt fit....too big  

[Markjay]

From the pictures it seems more like the car has been left with the windows down either in a body shop or near a dusty road... If it was standing for a while before being sold, it may have gathered this at the dealer's/scrappie etc. So this may not be a simple case of owner neglect...
