Title: Wanted:- Putting feelers out for a Miggy
Post by: Iain on 13 August 2012, 16:06:28
Hello again everyone :)

Been away from the Omega for a couple of years now but its drawing me back in again like a drug! ;D

Im looking for a nice facelift,now an estate would be best for my circumstances but open to a saloon too
Ive had 2x 4 pots so might even adventure into V6's this time but MUST be Auto

I know there are a few on Gumtree/Ebay etc but would prefer to get a car from fellow owners rather than travelling for miles to see a pile of mince.
Im in Glasgow so the closer the better but willing to travel for the right car.Prefer black or silver but again open to see whats available
I have around a grand for the right car

What we got people? :) ;)

Nope,not unless someone has put a lot of elite parts on it,although I dont think its an elite either.Looks to me like an upgraded CD or CDX.Not certain though tbh. :-\

No roof spoiler and a CDR2006 headunit would suggest its not an Elite. :-\

Ok ive decided,my new Omega must be....

An Elite basically,full spec saloon or estate and must have leather,and as original as possible.

Thanks to the guys who PM'd me regarding their cars  :y

MOT for a year,so it must be in reasonable condition,but the worry for me is engine and driving it home when i dont know the history/condition of the timing belt,
I do know what the reserve was last time
