No VIC marker, and previous keeper on V5 acquired it on 4/12/2001 (date of registration) but address given is Vehicle Fleet Manager, summat, PO Box 513?, Liverpool, L?????. Can't quite read it as resolution of pics is poor.
Does GMP have their admin office in Liverpool? :-\

Just looked and I can't see an exhaust on it ?

Yup, pretty much... if it had a facelift back box fitted, the tailpipes would be visible in the osr quarter pic :y
-
Looks good - shame it's so far away ???
-
Early night for you then Essex Big Al ;D ;D ;D
-
I thought I would have a little punt........... ;) ;)
And I have told swmbo.................. ::) ::)
-
No calibrated speedo marker, no equipment holes anywhere visible, sunroof??? ???, satnav, bose??
Maybe a Staff car for taking the Assistant Chief Constable to the pub, but surely not an unmarked service vehicle :-\

-
Not me, I have an Ex plod Elite estate on the drive :y
-

-
WHAT! is wrong with all these people bidding silly money on these old gas guzzling barges that will quickly bankrupt them when things start going wrong :o they'll be sorry that they didn't buy a Trebant instead :(

It's only at £205, you could weigh it in and get that.
-
I have been keeping my eye on this as well ,not bidding yet though.
Looking at his history there are a few cars been sold so probably not his dads but you never know!
-
Wouldn't be the first time Ive heard the Seller claim 'its an Ex Police Omega' when it wasn't ::)
If it was used as an Unmarked Vehicle, I would expect to see a Calib Clock in there.

My elite dose not have a calib clock.

Joffs ex Met Elite estate is civilian spec :y
This one was a job car, but registered from new to a Po Box in Liverpool... not sure where GMP keep the records office... anyone know? Is it/was it in Liverpool?
If you zoom in on the paperwork you can make out some address details on the front page of the log book :y
-

Lord knows why, but it's been photochopped out. Can see the patch in photo 4. Along with the magically appearing and disappearing smoke/steam. ???
-
I do like that and I do have room :y
-
There is a For Sale sign in the back and side window, low resolution photo though as I can not read it when zoomed right in; cant explain the exhaust, but smoke seen does appear to come from a twin pipe.................. :-\ :-\ :-\
-
Seller wants £1250. ;)
Too far into high forehead country for me to go and collect :P

For sale Vauxhall Omega 3.2 V6 Fully loaded rest is blurred, presumably photoshopped to hide price and phone number :-\

Get in your car and go and look at it...Dont bid on a picture ...saying that i stalked a car with a sheet over it ;D ;D ;D
-
Wouldn't an explod have a service record printout from the force garage not a stamped service book? Oh and Al Liverpool isn't in GMP area, Force HQ is Chester Road Manchester.
-
I asked the guy where the rear exhaust was...he said possibly hidden by the smoke so he very kindly said he would put more pics on tomorrow.. :y :y

Services shown date back to 2009, claimed change of keeper in 2007 so service history checks out (subject to receipts/invoices)...
There is also damage to the grommet where the main body loom enters the engine bay between the pollen filter and power steering resrvoir, which is indicative of plod wiring. Grill has been painted at some point too...
The thing that doesn't make sense is why a GMP car was registered to a PO Box in Liverpool :-\ That said, one of the postcodes I tried caused my tablet to crash :-\ damned if I can remember which though, and possibly a coincidence ::)
The address it is registered to does exist, which is summat...

If car was used by drugs squad or the like for undercover work they wouldn't want a scally being able to check if it was plod or not easily.
-
That could explain it :y although ghost plates are common practice :-\
At the end of the day, it has one previous owner, and current owner appears to have looked after it... :y
-
Looks pretty nice, should fetch a decent price.
-
Ha, it's mine............ :y :y

That's a bit shitty... surely as a potential genuine buyer, you've as much of a right to buy as Joe Bloggs seeing it in the small ads :-\
No wonder ebay has the rep it does :-\

Don't tell me...
You've just bought your second 3.2 in a week :o
-
Really pissed off at this what is the actual point of ebay
-
Too many unscrupulous sellers on the bay now, genuine motors few & far between.
-
Agree,I've bid on bits and pieces for my cars over the past year or so and you do get the feeling that a lot of the deals are being manipulated by the seller,also the p&p charges are a total piss take with an element of profit worked into that as well >:(

No not me, Got what i wanted a week ago :y Wonder if he pulled it owing to being made a offer.. :-\ :-\
But i agree with others egay is a pain,you bid then when it gets near to the end the seller pulls out because he has done a back door deal or the bidding was not going the way they wanted it to. :-\
