Title: For sale: 98 mini-facelift 3.0 Elite in Bedford
Post by: Liam on 14 January 2013, 10:00:57

Hi,

Hopefully my trusty Omega (or parts of it) can live on with somebody else :). I owned it for over 7 years and gave it to my brother to use as a second car last summer when I replaced it. With his new baby he can't afford to run the beast so it's time to move it on and get what I can for it to help out my bro.

Unfortunately the MOT and tax expired over christmas period although it has always passed and I reckon it would pass again if required - I always looked after it mechanically. So I'd say its for spares/repair. It's a 98 3.0 Elite auto mini-facelift in dark green (like BRG) with cream/brown leather interior and all usual Elite goodies. About 140,000 miles. Car located in Bedford

Good parts:
Lemforder front wishbones only done a few thousand miles
New steering idler arm
New rear springs
Good winter tyres on the 16" elite alloys only done about 3000 miles
Cambelt and rocker gaskets done about 4000 miles ago
All elite toys work except drivers seat heating
Geometry by WIM

Not so good:
Bodywork has a few scrapes/dings (although no real rust)
Cheap pattern back box I bought in a moment of weakness is a bit boomy compared to OEM

If I wasn't in Norway working I'd break it myself, but my bro hasn't the knowledge or time, so if you're interested come and take it away. Open to offers.

Cheers

Hmmm, I suppose so...

£300?

Worth that for the wheels/tyres alone :)

I can probably dig out a few from its travels in Norway, and I'll see if i can get my bro to take some. You are welcome to go and see it too if you're local.

Managed to dig some pics of it on holiday in Norway. Excuse the fact it's filthy :). It cleans up well though. Family members not included.
