At a guess, cause he could get the Vx version cheaper than BMW. If he is doing that kind of work, I'm sure he would have looked into chipping them.

As a BMW 5 or 3, with same engine goes for a heck load more than Omega.

just what i thought he got full car tax and tested so he could drive it home and have the full car to take off what he needed then weigh the rest in i wish i never bothered putting new bottom arms on it >:( i let it go for £440  a bemmer would have been a lot more i guess
