Shame it's an estate. I don't like the colour, but other than that it's a prime specimen ;D

A very nice looking car .... if you can live with a car that beige! ;D Far far far too pale interior for me. ;) :y

Totally agree that it is a gorgeous car and would be a worthy partner to my saloon which has all the same toys (sat nav screen etc.), but no shin breaker.
The estate would also be the towing car (trailers (junk / boats) only no pikey wagons)
I plan on having two 3.2 elites, one saloon that I have and an estate. This really caught my attention, but not that colour or that interior. Shame.
Did anyone spot the EML light too? I suspect that this is the age old 0420 / 0430, but there is a solution to that. Worth asking.

After having a Senator with the grey interior I specifically looked for an Omega with a black interior. Certain parts of the Senator were impossible to clean as new ie left foot rest, next to the brake pedal, where the mats didn't reach.

What would you lot pay for it then, if you really wanted it?

i like that a lot, love champagne Omega's reckon the colour suits is very well....
The creme interior is not that bad to keep clean, mine still looked good after 160,000 miles

Is this expensive to sort out?.

No, but wondered how much you should go up to for such a model?
£3000+..........or below that, Parkers guide is below £3000 but this one has extra bits on it.

In the current market I doubt he will get anywhere near what it's worth ---- don't like estates -- but even I was tempted !!!!

if you enlarge the pic it shows the engine sign lit up

If seriously interested why not ask the seller to do the "pedal trick" and tell you the numbers ??? He probably doesn't know how to, or how to find out what they mean.... you may save yourself some hassle, or get an easy to fix car cheap ... :)

Quote:- '.....all 3.2 Elites have Sat Nav's, but 99.9% of them have the basic systems with small monochrome screens - our car has the upgraded system with 5" full colour screen showing a scaleable map and pictorial guide - this was a £1,200 option. Our car also has an integrated hands free telephone, again a £1,000 option at new - simply place your sim card in the holder and you have a fully functioning, 'proper' car telephone.'
Hmmm the Sat Nav's are all the same regardless of it being an NCDR2013 or 2015, the colour screen adds better functionality I would agree but it's wrong to say that the mono is basic in comparison.
Scary to think they charged £2,200 at the dealers for the GSM telematics unit and a CID, the head unit is just a different facia.... A new telematics went for £49 on eBay the other day and I had a new CID fitted to mine when I bought it for at least £2000 less than the total price above.
When I see numbers like that it reminds me why I would never buy a new car!

Having just searched through here (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/andrew.reynolds983/Manuals/Omega2002Manual.pdf) page 29 I'd have to agree with you Nigel

Having read the same thing I completely agree, but why is it orange? My handbrake light is red.
Is my car odd or is it this one?

might just be the camera, bright red can show as orange sometimes

seller has confirmed that it is the handbrake light and is going to take some pictures with the handbrake and light off :y

Saving the pic, opening in a piccy editor and zooming in it certainly looks like the engine symbol...as Jay says....which is not EML light its the emissions light on a facelift.
However 2nd light in from the right, bottom row on my facelift is the handbrake light and is red not orange.
So......im a bit confused unless vx changed the layout of the warning lights at some point??
Better of asking the seller.......what the symbol is.....just remember, if it piccy of engine thats the emissions light :y EML is piccy of car with spanner sticking thro its roof (facelifts) :y

That certainly puts it well out of reachfor me at the moment. :'( :'( :'(
I also messaged him about the light on the dash.
It is the handbrake light, if you enlarge the pic you can just make it out and there is a red reflection just below it.

These are worth 5k all day...if you live on "Fantasy Island". I would'nt give anymore than half that, 3 at a push but it would have to be a real baby 8-)
