i also spy TC button next to radio, should that not be on the main button row on mini-facelift? and leave a coin tray for lesser models, and Carin display on Elites?
tc button moved MY98.5, Only 3.0 had carin as std
Yup and Evans Halshaw say its a 3.0 in the ad

Not 17" alloys either
Only facelifts have 17" before that they were 16"

Sorry they advertise 17"

They are actually 16" and I think the 17's are a different sytle anyway.

Just rung them.  Car was sold yesterday.

Spoke to a lad who actually went and got the log book and confirmed it was an Elite on there.

So it looks like it may have had some work done on it or some cheeky bugga has oiked some parts off it.

Had a look at that and was tempted to go and have a look.

But from past experience when I was involved in the car trade then I wouldnt touch a car that has probably lived at the coast, firking salt get every where.  :-/

The MOD had a number of Omegas on close protection work the spec was all over the place ie leather but no elec rear windows they were a cross between police spec and normal as well as what can only be described as cobbled together! Some were manual and some were auto they were reg late as were sat in an aircraft hangar for a while!
