Hope you've all had wonderful weekend
So, interested to see what you guys think my cars worth
99 T mini face 3.0 elite factory manual saloon z146 black leather, 90 on the clock 2 previous owners last owner 16 years, drives like new! Just replaced the front lower arms drop links and both complete track rods, 4 wheel alignment done, new front discs and pads, everything works in the car apart from the drivers heated seat, fully loaded! Totally stock and unmolested! Had rear arches done, no scuffs or scratches to the paint or none that stand out. Original service book with plenty of stamps but no other paper work other than v5 current mot and a load of receipts since I've had it since only this summer, very rare car what do you reckon it's worth? I'm not selling just curious.
Thanks people   :y

Sad reality is probably less than you think and much less than you would want for it....if you are thinking of selling it  ;) ;) ;)

Expect post to get nuked though as looks like a 4sale listing ...sorry but that's the rules here  ::)

Thanks amba, it's not a for sale post just wondering what it maybe worth, I've had omegas years ago but this year I found this car and had to have it! I intended to keep it.

With these cars its worth what somebody is prepared to pay for it...being a 3.0ltr with manual box I would expect around £750,but as said its all down to how much somebody falls for it. :y

Hen`s teeth are rare, certainly not Omegas

I think the rare was referring to the additional pedal  ;) ..... quite why you'd want it is another question  ::)

A bit of above. If you try selling it - £250 you get offered. Now try and find another - the only one you'll be able to find is either £1200 at a forecourt (and still require work to get it to the standard of yours) or you find one for 89p, but requires £Twelve-ty thousand to get it to the standard of yours.

I had the same argument with my insurers re: value after the smash. "oooh we've found loads of your car, it's worth £350-450"
Me: "Um.. they're all star silver facelifts,  2.0 CD, ... yeah NOT THE SAME!!!" Made no difference, of course!  :D

All I can say is leave £ value out of it for the time being, until they're used in a show like Life on Mars / Ashes to Ashes or something and their values skyrocket.  :D ;D :D Do it for love, and for the fact it's a damn good car that's really reliable, in the grand scheme of things, that can be repaired often for free / a quid.   :y

Andy B, I spend my life in an automatic car at work to the tune of 1000 miles per week, nice to get in a manual at the weekends, especially a pre 3.0 elite! As there are nearly none left anymore   :y

Quite right diamond black geezer, couldn't have worded that better myself  :y

230 to go.  :y.

You only have two feet, why confuse yourself by having 3 pedals. ;D

You're not selling it to me  ::) ... especially a ton & half barge like an Omega - they're not exactly a sports car, even in MV6 guise  ;) I can see no enjoyment in working a clutch on today's roads, it's bad enough queueing with 2 pedals, let alone 3
