Title: A bargain, take it away today!
Post by: Neil (Cardiff) on 07 January 2010, 16:57:11
I'm looking to sell or swap my Omega and I trust people on here not to rip me off.

The only reason I want rid is purely because it's an automatic and for that reason I hate it  :P which is a shame because other than that it's one of the nicest cars I've had (I've had a lot!)

It's and M reg (1994), 2.5 V6 CDX with about 110k on the clock, I'm still using it daily so it may vary. It's taxed till the end of April and MOT'd till sometime in Aug.

Now the bits you're all after, whats wrong with it!....

- The main thing is the heater. At the moment the vac pipe is off the HBV but the matrix needs flushing I believe.

- It needs two front tyres.

- The body work on the front does have a few dents, rust patches and scratches. I have detail pictures which I can e-mail to anyone interested.

- Sometimes if the car hasn't run for a few days it can be a bit difficult to start from cold but it does always start.

- No radio, but the original is in the boot.

- I don't think the key works in the doors. They might, but I've never tried to force them because I don't want to snap it. The fob works fine but the battery is on the way out.

I've tried to be honest but there maybe little things that really have just slipped my mind. The car is getting on now after all. Any questions or common problem areas on these things just ask and I'll check it out.

I've changed the MAF which was causing problems and the coolant and the car really does run lovely now. No troubles with the auto box or engine, they'll go forever!

Please take it away!! I'm looking for any reasonable offers or to swap for a manual of similar condition (tax & MOT really). It would need to be a reasonably sized car (not a Mini) but anything really. I don't have any money and I need a road legal car. A swap would be ideal but by no means essential. I just want it gone now so I can replace it.

Think that's all. Any questions feel free to ask!

ha ha, it does need to be cheap though, sounds like a workhorse for someone to graft for a few months

Yeah it's not immaculate  :P but it goes well. All I really need is enough to buy another car and to tax the new car for 6 months. I'm not looking for any profit, so say £400 with the tax on it because that's worth over £50 on its own. That gives me £300 to spend on another.

I'm open to offers and negotiation though  :y
