Post by: Varche on 30 August 2011, 15:00:27

Things you would never hear an OOFer say but a  seller might.      Just a bit of fun. ;D

" Its had its cambelt done at 80k doesn't need doing again till 160k"    " Easy job, don't need any special tools"

"Its very economical for its size"

"Its got a bit of a misfire , just needs new plugs"

" ABS light on on dashboard, probably needs sensor cleaning"

"Front inner tyre wear, all big front engined cars do that."

oil and filter changed 10,000 miles ago, should be ok for another 10,000. :)
A bit of an oil leak from the rocker cover gasket, just needs the bolts tightening up nice and tight.
Had a new Halfords air filter less than two years ago.
Of course its front wheel drive, they stopped making rear wheel drive cars donkeys years ago, because the handling was awful.
Its the CD model, which is top of the range. :)

It's the very last facelift they did, so it's an "Omega C mate"!

Or as some of us saw in one ad recently:
It's very fast, as its fitted with a Supercharger, as you can see in the photos  :-?

I know the Button lights on but the seats only really warm up when drops below -1, their working fine.

Their special bright Headlamp bulbs mate, they should have a tint of pink to them.
