Your HONEST Opinion
« on: 09 November 2006, 20:22:53 »

I'd appreciate your honest appraisal on this please. I run a 2000 W 2.5 CDX, 90000 mls, in good nick, cambelt done, MOT and Tax MARCH 2007.

I've used this dealer before and he's a genuine guy.

Now, I obviously cant afford to run two omegas, but, if this one doesn't reach its reserve, I was thinking of offering him mine+cash. Trouble is. I really dont know how much cash, and whereas I KNOW mines had all its bits done, I obviously dont know about the elite.

HELP! please.

Looks like a nice tidy motor.  Well loved from new - as evidenced by the small things such as the cargo net in the boot.  

Shame only 1 day to go - would have suggested Email garage and ask for details for your own HPI - inc name & address of last keeper to call up and ask if any problems.

Worth a gamble? I've seen worse.

My knowledge stops with cargo nets - didn't feel qualified to comment on important things such as engines.  

I don't think they would have posted so many pics if it was a wrong un - just need to decide on your best price.  If it goes over your set limit - let it go. If not grab a bargain. [smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]

If it reaches its reserve, I've lost it anyway.
