Does look a nice example from the 2 images of the car, Kept in a heated garage for 6 years should have help keep the tin worm at bay. One thing I did notice was the side indicator cover is orange where it should be clear/frosted white.  ???

Mine was orange until I 'upgraded' to white.

Yes does look good,if I wanted one I would certainly look at this one nice mileage as well, easy to check  with the MOT history available on line.

MOT history suggests the lack of use hasn't done it any favours. Rusty brake pipes / exhaust / brake discs, deterioration of rubber bushes, leaking rear shocks.......
In my opinion miles on the clock isn't that relevant on big engine cars. How they are looked after is much more important, and really low miles can cause more problems than it prevents.

One thing I really dislike about eBay especially when it comes to cars... Is the distance they quote.

For example it says that this Omega is 165 miles away.... But it's actually more like 215 miles...

Amen. And gumtree. And autotrader. Bunch of bullshitters when it comes to distance. Sometimes it's not even right in a straight line!

Clearly; but some people won't be told that and insist that below 100k is the holy grail  ::)
