Surprised that no one has mentioned this one :-\ 252115559890
Would probably cost close to the asking price to source the Irmy bits alone :-\ + another 10mph as it's go fast Black ;D
:-\
Owner has only had it for a month though :-\ . . but could be OK I suppose :-\
Anyone thinking of taking a look ?
-

You are correct :y

Nice car and not even ran in at that mileage ::) Fast black another bonus :)
-
It is mine Al. To be honest though, I don't think I'll be letting this go. I changed my mind. I doubt another one like this will turn up.
-
It does look stunning.......will we have the pleasure of its attendance at Wycombe ? :)
-
Stunning looking car :y

So an offer of, say, three grand wouldn't buy it then?

Put your money where your mouth is ;D ;D ;D :D (or should that be Keyboard)
-
Nice looking car,like you say, it's unlikely that another one will become available in the near future and if it were, then you would have to pay something like your asking price or perhaps a bit more due to the scarcity of this marque. Keep it for as long as possible and enjoy the fact that there will never be an identical car alongside you or up your chuff at the traffic lights,sort of an exclusive club in a way :y

Probably. But who would pay £3k for something the price of a Mars bar?
terbert, not sure I can make it. The missus has made made some plans for herself and wants me to babysit so we'll see.
-
Let's deal......umm! I'll give two Mars bars ;)

Been round the block, hasn't it. Obviously a shed and my offer has just lost a nought. ;D

Just a general question out of interest[sorry if I'm hijacking thread]but what is it about the 3.2 that makes people seek them out?As I understand it apart from usual V6 maladies they also have the extra of the pre-cat sensors needing moving.Figures I've seen suggest they're not hugely more powerful or greatly faster than the 3.0l and yet apparently are far worse on fuel.So why the 3.2,what's to recommend it?
-
More torque, much easier engine to work on by virtue of not have utterly pointless emission plumbing all over the place, they're newer... need I go on ::)

Personally I think the 3.0's are better engines. :y
As you say sensors are a faff, normal V6 issues. Is it easier to work on? Not vastly so to the 3.0, guess it looks a bit neater.
Fuel use is seriously shite. Yes it's a 3.2, but compared to the 3.0 it's just 200cc more but the difference in fuel use is far bigger.
I don't think it's any faster either, Tunnie family had 3.0 Estate for years. Is my 3.2 faster? Humm don't think so, about same really. Also the 3.2 delivers a lot of is power low down, one of the car parks i use for work, exits onto a 40mph road. 9/10 I can light up the rears just pulling away, without even trying. Just light throttle use.
Before anyone says tyres, 3.0 would run on budget tyres, never had that issue.
Only thing I like compared to the 3.0 is its DBW, so it has a lighter throttle pedal. :)
-
Very nice looking Mig, definitely worth hanging onto I'd think.

Thats what 2.2's are for ;D ;D

There in one 3.2 Estate for sale in Germany at the moment, asking €2.950 for it. Has a dent in right rear corner, looks decent otherwise.

I like that But the steering wheel is on the wrong side :y
-
Allowing for the price of Euro against the British pound, over here that price would be classed as too high, especially with that mileage/km.
And also with the dent. This is only my opinion, you understand :y
However, with the Irmscher bits, that could make a difference :y
-
Think I'll stick mine on der ebay.de! ::) At 2500 Euros it'd be a snip...... even with the steering wheel on the wrong side!! :D ;D
-
My 2008 Zafira Elite is almost worth as much as a 14 year old Omega (albeit with Irmscher kit). Hopefully in a few years this kit will be worth a small fortune. Worth holding on to find out I think ;D

Like this colour :)

Can I change the listing for this car and put the Zafira up instead? Had a look on ebay and all I could find was this:
