Oooh look, my old car...
« on: 14 February 2011, 15:56:14 »
If anyone is interested in paying £3500 for it then I could pass on some tips of what to look for!!

Amazing what they'll still ask for these days although, to be fair, the engine is a peach and would have many tens of thousands of miles left in it... it was just time for me to move on....

I never did get round to posting pictures in the 4 years I had it, but here are some nice ones anyway....

I can only wish them luck with the asking price....

Huge spec and price. £2795 - £2995 would sound a decent advertised price.

I like the second picture  - the 'danger risk of death' sign visible through the window really adds to it.

I know it's fast but.....

It only cost me £9k from a dealer 4 years ago, I'd be surprised if it got more than $2k now.... still, not many left....

Price isn't that bad to be honest. Its a low mileage estate, which might hold the price up.

Probably around the right price for a full spec, low mileage well looked after elite TBH.

Can be the right price all day long but Its only the right price if someone will pay that for it.

*feels smug at price paid for own omega*

Does look a nice example though, I wonder what the value of omegas will plateau at?

That is a cracker, tho £3000 might be fairer.

Shimmy asks a good question - what will Omega values plateau at? It's a racing certainty that the better, well-maintained examples in a further 10 years will start to attract 'classic' status, and scarcity will also start to drive values up (always assuming that petrol remains for a while longer within the purse-reach of the average motorist)....
All of us that use these cars regularly know how good they are - its only a matter of time before a wider audience of classic enthusiasts starts to catch on....
