You don't seem to be listening to the advise given here many many times ............... cars should have more cylinders than doors!  ;) ;) ;)
I was talking to a bloke the other day. He'd had a 2.5 Omega in the past (& a 24v Senator at some time before that) and replaced it with a 2.2 (petrol?) for improved fuel economy............... it hadn't worked. The 2.2 wasn't that much different from the V6  ;) ;) :y

Normally I would agree, and she is the last person to throw money around ::) ::) but she really does not like this car :( any way I fancy a little convertible for a month or two, time to be a hairdresser..... :D :D

I called in to look at this today, but not available till tomorrow, was told photo took at main dealers... ::) ::)
They were not too impressed when I suggested it was over priced by about 100% but looks like it could be tidy.. :-\ :-\

On the way back to the office I called in at the Main Dealer and asked about any Omega's coming in as px, well worth a try.... :D :D :D Either wrong Vx garage or pre traded / sold as they said they had none available.. ::) ::)

Looks to be a nice car. min number of cylinders too!  :y :y

I'd ask the seller about the 'full sized spare' ............ point out the fact it's only 15"  ;) ;)

It an old fashioned 'cowboy' sort of place, salesman???? clean the cars and not a tie in sight, however this company has been going for years, I used to work with the owners wife, it's about the car. Couple of good pointers between you and Andy :y The add also suggests a range of Omega's, none today... ::) ::) ::)

If the car is as good as suggested, what sort of price do you think it should be at?

It's worth what you're willing to pay ;) How much do you want it?

Like I've said before, my estate would go if someone offered over £4.5k ::)

You are of course quite right, when we were looking if I had found an Omega at that price it would not have put me off, as said by you and others, any car is worth what you will pay for it, and if the right car I would pay the money... :y
Slight problem at the moment I have a few grand in the Megane leaving available ready cash somewhat limited until it is sold, and can hardly part ex it backwards, I know it can be done but doing it this way gives the worst possible deal so will have to sell the Megane privately.
Been searching around, there are some nice Omegas out there, mostly a long way a way.... :( :(
