Quite possibly. Why not?  Radio is only suspect item in my book....

Bit suspect if you ask me, I have had 2 CDX's, there is no CDX badge on the passenger doors, stereo is not the right one, should have 4 disc changer that slots in, and not single, and no leather seats, which should be as standard on CDX, unless someone wants to correct me? But leather normally comes as standrad on CDX models with most extras other than the elite models.

Sorry have to correct you there, leather is not standard on the CDX
 
The only model where leather is standard is the 3.2 V6 / 3.0 V6 Elite, its not standard on the 2.6/2.5 Elite

Seen plenty of CDX's without leather, in fact more without than with. If you enlarge the photo to max, you can just see CDX on pass' door, Radio is defo wrong, but maybe it came from a fleet and it was swapped with a mates CD or GLS before it moved on. Thats what happend with my old GLS before I bought it. :'(

How can you tell it has HID's?

Washers on the bumper, and the lights have a very slight purple tint to the bulbs.

think ya might have typed that in the wrong bit m8, its part of my quote!  ;D

Because the Omega was generally only bought buy company car drivers / fleet, they had lots of leather because that kept the re-sale value higher.

When my dad was ordering his current megga though the company car scheme it was £1 extra per month to have leather.... £1!!!!!

So he has leather on his CD spec ;)

The 7-spoke wheels are unique to the CDX and were not available from factory on other models.

Fold-flat passenger seat was only standard on the CDX, though it was available as an option on GLS/CD.
Leather and Auto were NOT standard fit on CDX (though many have them).
Wood-effect trim, HID, sunroof (I think I can spot one, but strangely it is not on the accessories list), are all consistent with CDX though not unique to CDX.
I can't be sure if it has Cruise (though it is mentioned on the list).
As pointed-out, the only non-CDX item is the radio.

So the wheels and the radio are at odds with each other, on balance I think it is more likley to be a CDX with a retro-fitted CD radio than a CD with upgraded CDX wheels...

well given that it clearly states in the listing that it's been a cat D writeoff, it may well have been sat around for a while before being moved on and had the proper head unit erm, "donated" ...

Heres another CDX with the "single" cd player. Strange.
