[I_want_an_Omega]

Only 3.2 manuals are plod , although a touch smaller than an Omega, boot is about the same size. Early one had the option of electric front seats, and heated rear seats (fronts already heated)

Quite underated, but as you can see, excellent value

Manual conversion easy enough, F28 six speed should bolt straight on

Also, to update the front end, it's all nuts and bolts.

er, not true. I know of two manual 3.2 Elites. This is a saloon which will also driv the price down - but it does seem too cheap though.

They don't have the best reputaion for handling though, not driven one myself but SIL managed to spin on twice on an ASDA RA.......

Don't talk rubbish, Mike, Clarkson loved their handling.

My bad, just dug out a review of the GSI, most are autos, the manuals being relatively rare We run a saloon and a hatch, (amongst other things), side by side, there's very little that the saloon can't do in comparison if anything the saloon is the better car as it's more rigid and is noticably quieter on the road

The price boils down to the engine, the fact it's a saloon and it's not the best colour for these It also demonstrates just how underestimated these cars are in the wider world
