Very much just testing the water here, as I am considering a different type of toy ::)
If I were to list this on Autotrader, what do you think is a realistic starting point?
2000 W Omega 3.0 V6 Elite Estate
Automatic Trans
MOT Sept 2009
158,000 miles
Unmarked Black Leather
CID and colour sat Nav
BOSE
Climate, Cruise, etc, Usual Elite Spec.
Good points:
Exhaust changed very recently for an Eternalcar one. Same quality as the latest release of VX exhaust, since they are no longer double skinned!
Cambelt kit done by me, 3000 miles ago.
Sonnax thrust washer, and recent ATF change.
New wishbones
Easy 30+mpg on a run.
WIM treatment less than 3,000 miles ago
Bad points:
Aircon needs looking at - not cold.
Light (not deep) mark on front bumper, probably easily taken out, and some minor damage to a corner of rear bumper, but nothing to worry about.
Facelift Elite alloys will be supplied, freshly sanded and painted but will need new tyres fitting to them. Car is currently on Steels, with excellent tyres on.
Any ideas what it should be listed at? I've lost touch, so will be guided by others, if I do decide to change...

£1k on a good day :-/
Best way is to check what is selling on Autotrader (not what is advertised!)
-
And thats with the alloys on and legal tyres.

You're thinking along simelar lines as me really..
Excuse me being daft, how can I check what's sold, rather than what's adverised?

You can't - you would be lucky to get a grand

Note whats for sale now, check again in week. Any that have disappeared, call a few to see if still available, and be a bit cheeky if sold, and ask what price it went for, saying it will help you negotiate with other sellers ;). Even call a few that are still advertised.

£1k should be achievable on the right day if the car is presented properly.

One of those situations whereas it's worth more to me, than it is to anyone else... :-/

Exactly - you replace with another car the same value, you might be buying a right money pit.

I might just have to go and take a cold shower and forget what I was just looking at on AT....(Not an omega ::) )

And the fact you were considering selling this year means I won the bet, and you owe me a tenner ;D

But when James comes out of the shower he will know it was all a dream and he wasn't ever considering selling it. So that will mean TB he does not owe you a tenner!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)
-
any pics of car?

I thought it was only if I DID change cars, rather than consider it? :P

The fact you were asking its value, and checking AT is enough to convince me I was right!
Next curry is on you ;)

Can't remember which one we went to, but they are all pretty good except the one up near the bike shop...
-
So what are you considering then James?
-
sadly, £1k is going to be the best case scenario.
I think £800 is a more reasonable figure in the current climate, its close to xmas, no one wants to buy a big 3.0 with high miles at the moment.
-
A 2000 W plate CDX estate sold on e-bay couple of days ago with one bid of £895.
IIRC it had lass than 100k, so based on that yours without 'tyred' alloys would be about the same
BUT if you want to swap for a lower millage CDX saloon drop me a pm :y

So it's come to this in Omegaland....£1000...if you're lucky. :-/
