Title: Plastic trim parts
Post by: gstylebaby on 19 June 2017, 16:49:25
Hi all,
I still have loads of trim parts left from breaking my mv6 omega estate just wondering if they are worth listing and selling or is it all just fit for the bin do we think?
This is not a for sale add just wanted some feedback from others.

Generally, bin them.

External trim potentially has value as unobtainable, interior worthless unless mint :-\

Chuck it on the for sale section, as free to good home, somebody might take, and one part might keep another omega going a month longer.

Don't bin it until you've offered it.

not worth anything I put mv6 bumpers and side trim in mine for sale along with one off angel eye headlights and lpg kit--had one interested but couldnt get space the other was a complete waster so ended up getting £145 for it as scrap--still hope you do get someone interested who actually will do something than waste your time tbh

They do, I would consider a mint Estate in either facelift or even mini-facelift trim. Trouble is now, all examples for sale are really rough.

It was not in the best condition though, I think there is a market for mint exterior trim panels to fix car park hits. Second hand LPG is generally worthless, not matter what it is fitted to, tanks after 10 years can't be certified and often its far better to buy a new kit.

as said new trim in car and lpg fitted 2012 and tank changed to smaller one in 2014 so not 10 years old --Thought it was a bargain but all things being equal nobody wants thirsty expensive cars now--plus scrappage scheme wont help situation regarding old cars--look how many classics lost last time
