He was going to use it as a track car  :o  (going by the listing) What a waste that would have been.

Quite cheap actually,but it says it has Bose/satnav etc,but the pics show the NCDC unit has been replaced with an aftermarket unit from what I can see. :-\

Price should reflect the fact that it's probably been caned, the air filter needs replacing, no mention of a cambelt change/any servicing...etc...etc :-\

For reference, all the Irmy bits on that will bolt straight on to any Omega from '94 onwards, only exception being the rear bumper, saloon only :y

p.s. no guarantee that Bose is fitted or working, unless Davednd can confirm compatibility with that hu.

If I had the money i would by it, and fit the kit/wheels to my car. I think its a very good PRICE IMO. If its only got 80k and mint its worth £3K all day long. Very desirable colour combination too, but must admit need colour factory nav.

If is a very big word that you've used twice ::)

Without having seen either, and IF I had the cash, I would gladly buy Chrisgixers 'spare'  MV6 for £2500, this one however I would probably not even consider swapping for my ex plod shytbox :-\

Can't remember the last silver Omega I saw on the road :D

Oh and according to reg date, it should be an '02 not a '52 plate. 5 owners and 133k, and not one mention of so much as an oil change. And why does a car with a factory fitted alarm/immobiliser that is, iirc, thatcham 1, need a second one :-\

Kit and wheels poss worth £1200, rest of the car...  :-\

Like I said I would buy it to fit the kits and wheels, not to use the car. Yes its probably been cained and in all respect a poor advert for such a rare car. Silver is a high demand colour, so people would happy pay a few quid extra for the right colour. Like you have mentioned, poor advert, no mention of belt changed or much work makes it a car I would only buy to strip and break, not to use. However could have been well looked after but overlooked in his advert, who knows. All IMO either way....

As rare as a 3.2 Elite with Irmscher kit/alloys is this one is probably one to stay clear from unless it was under £1,000 to take a risk on  :-\
