What's the score with this facelift?

Engine bearing shot at less than 120k? Surely not, especially with regular oil changes!
What does anyone think this will sell for? Maybe it would be worth snapping up if it's cheap, and sticking my current 2.5 block in it! It's manual too!

Engine bearings shot!, not seen that happen before....
God knows what happened to the original radio on it.....got to be worth 500 quid.
-
engine bay looks like its been steam cleaned...
i wonder if that really has done 120k :-? or more like 220k
-
Anybody think the background in the photo is familiar? Im thinking about a seller who had a lot of bad press and re-invented themselves with new name.
I would doubt its the bearings unless there has been some foul-up in maintaining it at some time. More likely to be a noisy cam follower / manifold 'tick' / tensioner etc.
I would think this needs viewing and carefull checking unless it is really cheap.

I've seen theses people selling a few omegas. Bid on one they had but lost it then a couple of weeks later the same car was back on again
-
I checked them out, they used to be Stirling Cars apparently
Their reputation is 50/50 - EG some people have had good experiences, some not so good, but that's why it's all about "buyer beware"
What do you think is the max price it's worth?
