After a particularly nasty accident of which the least damaged car was mine, I drove home unlike the others, head on accident in front of me one spun into the side of me. I am saddened to be breaking my 2.6 CD, B pillar gone, A distorted, sill bent.

 :'( :'( :'( :'( >:( >:( >:( >:(

I will be keeping my radio CD changer amp and speakers. I may keep the engine and gearbox and enough electrics to run them for a kit car but I will have the following available.

Star Silver 2 Z147 Bonnet & passenger side doors, boot with wing spoiler, front bumper is tatty but I do have headlamp washers, rear bumper has a scrape on one corner and the other is distorted underneath, cream / beige interior not bad condition, climate panel is good, as are door switches.

Left front wing small dent, right totalled.

Rear tyres brand new, one of the front is VGC all 4 wheels are good.

Romano SGI LPG system with new vapouriser as the one on the car is knackered (was my now aborted winter job).

Eibach sports springs. Barely used KYB rear shocks (as I fitted ->), Monroe load leveller shocks with gauge. Poly bushed front wishbones, all you want are the bushes.

All glass is OK. Headlamps, OK not great, one has broken adjuster but broke in the correct position, the other is slightly cloudy. Got a good grill and a good spare grill, all boot/bonnet struts are OK.

Now to ruinning gear.

Seriously tempted to have a go at a kit car which will use the engine box ECUs and a few other parts but if I get enough interest here goes.

2.6 V6 164,000 just run in, 3.0 cams, ported heads, 0-60 was about 8 seconds, possibly under on good petrol. It leaks oil suspect crank seal, gear box just works, changes OK. New cam belt kit fitted last July.

Will start breaking next week.

Just make offers, but not silly ones, as I have a big loan to pay off - just bought an off roader as I could not have another Omega, it would not have been right.

This was a couple of years ago to show wheels and colour, since them bumper reacted and paint came off.

OK I will not be able to strip until I have found a place I can leave it. All prices minus postage.

LPG Well there is a brand new unused £90 vapouriser and a recent ECU, so would £200 be OK?

At the moment I have no idea on prices and people can suggest and I can take it from there.

Spring £50 for the set.

Wheels & tyres £120 two tyres are BRAND NEW

Monroe shocks now over £200 new so £80 for the set.

KYB rear shocks £20

Wishbone bushes £15

About 8 years

For £200

Tank, ECU, bust ECU, knackered vapouriser, NEW vapouriser, loom, straws, injectors, shut off valve, filler, pressure sensor, switch and if you help remove you can take as much of the Martin wiring off it as you can.

Cut injectors, not sure if I can split them or not, as they would not when I did the heads.
