Title: Can't Find an Omega!!
Post by: edwardmickey on 09 April 2010, 20:17:36
Why can't I find a decent 3.2 saloon Elite for sale?

There's just nothing for sale unless it's retail at 4k+ or some guy flogging a heap for top money?

I couldn't sell my 3.2 Elite two years ago and it was immaculate.  Went for £3k on a 52 plate with 100k miles.

Now I can't find anything even near that for £2.5k!

Grrrrrr!!!!

I've got a 2.5 Elite you can have for £2.5k.  Only it doesn't go (well, not on all 6 cylinders). ;D ;D ;D

On a serious note, what are you doing with that?

How about your working Mundano for my non-working Elite.  Its homosexual gold, with beige interior, and is a 2.5. 

;D ;D

If that doesn't happen, then drive it (them) over here and leave them with me before I drop you off at the airport after a beer.  ;D ;D ;D

Well mine's not a beauty either, it got scratches and some dents, mostly established by the previous owner (Old guy), well when I bought it 5 yrs ago for 8750€ (7630 quid) 50.000 miles on the clock and it had at least a nice interior, until my father starts transporting things which belongs into a buildersvan normally.

Also we are smokers, so there are some burnholes and ash everywhere, and also the sunroof has a live of its own due daily use.

So my mig is kinda matching your target now, I worringly guess.  ;D
