Title: 3.0ltr Manual Omega for sale
Post by: VX1 on 12 June 2012, 20:13:38
Here we have my beloved Omega 3.0ltr Elite, which is a reluctant sale.I have done a lot to this car over the two and a half years I have owned her, as you can see from the picture's this is a 1998 model Omega with a facelift. I have removed the old bumpers front and rear and replaced with facelift bumpers, facelift bonnet and slam panel, facelift door moldings and facelift door mirrors all colour coded to the car. I have also lowered the car by 40mm which also sits on 18" rims and fitted with an after market 5" back box. I have also fitted blue led puddle lights (as you can see in the pics) I have removed the old cast iron manifolds and replaced them with stainless steel manifolds from a 3.2 omega with steal gaskets (which don't blow), the air con pipe work and rad with the fans has been removed which makes the car lighter. the plenum has been painted anthricite, cam covers have been painted red. The calipers have been painted red and blue which makes the calipers stand out. With the different body panels fitted to this car it does make it very unique and I have not seen or know of another Omega like this.

I had this car professionaly resprayed last year and the bodywork is in immaculate condition for the year.

The cambelt and rollers + water pump were replaced two years ago so they don't need replacing again until 2014 or 25,000 miles so you can tell I have only done 15,000 miles since they were done. Both head gaskets have also been done again 2 years ago at the same time as the cambelt etc. I have spent a lot of money on this car and stands me over £3000 BUT I know I will not get this back. This car also has had oil changes every 3000 miles since I have owned it and will have another oil change for the winning bidder. The Mot runs out 01/2013 tax runs out 30/06/2012. The last Mot she had showed no advisories and went straight through the MOT so I know you will have no problems getting it through next year. Tinted windows front and rear doors but not on the rear screen.

I have this listed elsewhere so have the right to remove if sold elsewhere.

The Bad points

The temp gauge doesn't work but I have installed a plasma dial temp gauge which works well.
The rear leather seats have a couple of small tears in them.

I am looking in the region of £1000 ovno

Sorry, mate, regardless of whether it is the full URL, or a condensed 'click here' - I'm pretty sure the rules of the forum state no links to your own ebay auctions :y

Guide lines actually say;

Absolutely no links to your Ebay auctions, or Ebay auction numbers, or direct or indirect links to other places where it is advertised.
