Forum rules state you need to list a price  :y
That's easy. £200

They scrap for more than that on sheer weight alone.

Scraped one a few weeks back, they picked it up, which in theory costs me 20 notes, got offered a miserly £120 then minus £10 for not having a battery fitted.  :(

Reckon they would have offered a lot less had they had taken the time to realise it was missing Cats, Exhaust, Diff, ECU's and a shed load of other bits that where missing.  ::)

I scrapped an Orion a few years ago and the guy offered me an amount that I agreed (somewhere around £75).

When he arrived and loaded it onto his flatbed he found he didn't have that much on him and said "take it or leave it".  It flowed off the tongue as if he'd done it before  ;D

I don't begrudge someone on here getting a good deal.

I'd have told him to unload it again or cough up the agreed £75  >:(

What? and get the Orion back?!?! :o

Back to the OP
Omega now in new safe hands chaps and chappesses.

I will probably bow out of the forum as a result.  It's been an enjoyable experience mixing with you all.

Thanks and Happy Motoring
