Irrespective of what it sells for, that really is a side issue, it's the manner and conduct with the way a few members have chosen to act is the "now argument", spouting of about calling us up and offering a £100, being sworn at, etc, etc, it really is uncalled for and way out of order!!. At the end of the day we feel we have a very special example of Elite, and so it is priced with a premium. Some people will accept and some won't but we will not accept being insulted about it without having our say!!

yeah i admit to saying that about the £100 but i never swore at you mate


i think its about time this was locked

not saying any more i don't need this crap
i was having a friendly joke with fellow forum members and you took it one step further
i'm just getting over a stroke
i give up on this thread now not even looking at it again now
i don't fancy another night in hospital
have fun selling the mig and good luck with any other sales that you have got

[Lee 7Star]

And anyone who replies to a customers enquiry with a sarcastic email like this......

Well if you obviously know nothing about these cars, because if you did then you would know they do not sell by the Parkers guide price... The Parker's guide is for people like you who have no or little knowledge about thecar market.

Have a look at the following website, you will see they are an Omega specialist and currently have a 2003 Elite with 104K advertised for £4995... please feel free to email them and tell them of your specialist Parker's guide knowledge.

........deserves whatever reply they get.........

 

No mate, you get a reply like that when you tell me that the
car is only worth x amount when you get your information from cardata, (which you did), when you should be well aware that full spec 3.2 Elite's are very very hard to find, so guide's go out of the window on cars like this... and then you send me another email telling me to make the price realistic along with your car data valuation, so how do you expect me to react!! As a dealer I am used to handling all sorts of enquiries and I can spot the rude/sarcastic/timewaster one's like yourself from a mile away!! So I will not lose sleep over losing customer's as rude and arrogant as you!!

i think this is going to far now

[size=20]ADMIN GET READY TO LOCK THIS THREAD[/size]

Why you wanna lock thread mate?, just because you and Martyn are being showed up for the kinda people you really are? Yeah that sounds about right, dish it out but can't handle a few home truths!!
You insult me, send abusive emails and now you want to close the thread because i'm putting my views down!!

right firstly did i send you an email NO
was i having a friendly laugh and joke YES
can you take a joke NO
do i want this thread locked YES
are you p**sing me off YES YES YES

[size=18]ADMIN LOCK THIS THREAD BEFORE I GET REALLY NASTY[/size]

Mate I can take a joke same as the next man, but I can also spot things that ain't intended as a joke, more like a piss-take, so don't play the innocent once you've been rumbled!! Martyn was way out of order, and so far seem oblivious to this!! When you have a car for sale and someone emails you calling you a "dick" a "prick" etc, [size=20]SEE HOW YOU REACT!![/size] because I can tell you one thing you will [size=20]NOT[/size] find it funny!!

[nick v6]

No Nick, that was Martyn... didn't mean to sound as if you sent me those emails sorry...

ANYWAY HAVE SAID MY PEACE!! Hopefully we will have some more Omega Elite's in stock soon with average mileage, still in good condition that I will be able to sell much cheaper lol

This exchange is just bringing this forum into disrepute. Things have been said and done which I suppose in hindsight people may now reflect on and wish they could start again.

I have no issue with the value of the car - I have full spec irmscher 3.2 elite and it is worth to me a lot more than it would sell for. trouble is - what do I replace it with at that spec, size quality. If I were in the market I would probably discuss with the seller but if he sticks to a price then fine- but what does he offer for a trade in etc may come into the equation.

I think we should move on now.

Nice car fancy selling it

[Turk]

Still way out of my league, but irrelevant of price, condition etc. the e-mail response I received was polite, honest...and at gone half ten on a sunday night.  

If it does go for the asking price, Lee is soooo gonna let us know  

[Martin_1962]

Well I will put some points across.

For some reason people will pay over the odds for a shitbox, but decent cars like ours are to be honest too cheap - just due to lack of badge.

I think it is an expensive car but I feel that for what they are all Omegas are under valued, and that is what it should be worth.

I find it insulting that an older 1.0 shitbox is worth more than my car.

Yes the car is expensive Lee, but I hope you sell, - no actually I think you should use it - good car and worth driving.

I have been in similar size cars from different manufacturers, eg the over cramped 5 series, the strange handling Saab 9-5, neither should be worth more than an Omega but for some stupid reason are.

Nice LHD ones go for silly money in some parts of the world, but for some stupid reason UK people would rather drive the badge than the car

That just about hits the nail on the head

Unwise for me to sell - I do not know what to get in its place (which is as cost effective as keeping it) - it also has a brand new engine and hopefully will run another 5/6 years.

What about this one-reattach bumper and change rear light,job done.
Its a rather write off.

John Candy reckoned a buffering would sort out his hire car in Planes, Trains and Automobiles and that looked worse

The car needs minor body work reattach bumper ( bumper provided) and a new back light console thats it!!!

[albitz]

you would have thought he would at least had the brains to not put photos on with the description.

Firstly the car is well out of my price range,but I did buy a very nice  V reg 2.5 Elite Estate under 40000 mls from a Network Q dealer with a network q warranty on it and paid over the top last December but im happy with it it had been well looked after  as well as 2 cambelt changes at same main dealer.
The car advertised at what seems silly money to some oofers may well sell if someone comes along with money burning a hole in their pocket
