been looking to add an estate to the omega collection and whilst browsing saw an ad which contained this pic.



and whilst I appreciate you can't rely on a pic too heavily I'm impressed to see both strut nut covers,all 4 plenum bolt plugs,all 3 pieces of the top rad cover,battery bag and spongey thing on the iac valve are all still present on a '98 car.

Is that a gold estate ?  Whilst it all looks original , even the original clips to the hoses on the plenum breather pipes .. be wary they mite never have been off and blocked . Last 2.5 i bought looked similar but nothing had been properly serviced

It's either been lovingly maintained with attention to detail, or never touched. If it's still running, I'd say either is better than having been poorly maintained by a bodger.

We know the mechanicals on these cars can take some abuse and just keep working, cam belt changes aside, and that most problems are simple to resolve. If I were in the market for an Omega, condition of the body / structure would be my main concern.

Sounds like a good honest car but proof of the pudding...
