A valid point to a certain extent.I've had many cat D cars with no problems whatsoever. However, there are many people like Diane (onhisown) who are buying their Omegas for the first time. Someone like you or I can spot a shoddy repair from a mile off but someone less well trained? If you spotted something that you thought was wrong,you'd flag it up. The car has bids on it and may well be used to transport someone's family. At this price, the so called bargain may well be a death trap.

Depending on why the panels were replaced with old.   :y

It can also be a potential money spinner for the buyer, if a correct price.

As you say though, depends on if you know what you are looking for.

As any car buyer knows, irrespective of experience, you pays your money and takes your chance.......

The car could have had a slow speed, low impact to the bumper and/or bonnet and the owner/repairer might have decided to fit the nicer looking front to his/her facelift Omega!  ;)  ;)  ;)  ;)

Talking about front bumpers, I bought a "mini facelift" front bumper from GoonV6 (Thanks) but it has the black plastic cover plate (left hand side top of black part) missing.  Anyone know what it is, so I don't look daft  ::) when asking for one?  Anyone got one? :D

Thanks
