Either prices for Omegas are very healthy in Cornwall - or this guy hasn't really got the price quite right...

If he was very lucky he might get 5K for it......and even then he would be very lucky

Someone put him out of his misery and send him the link to this thread

I do notice support issues with the standard leather. Beer gut tends to want to escape at a tangent on roundabouts.  ;D I'm actually very happy with the cloth MV6 seats but the leathers do look nicer. :-*

I note it is due an annual service (last June 07), cam belt change, and what else; tyres, exhaust, etc?  It is on 36k miles so all about due.

With this in mind I agree £5,000 tops!
 ;)

PS It even only has "4 seats"!

Eight grand ,absolute bargain,i will certainly bid on this beauty.
Now then,what time was my appointment with Psychnurse again. :y :y :y
Title: Re: Is it worth £8000+
Post by: ians on 14 July 2008, 17:41:51
He's obviously (over)valuing the low miles (its still has had 3 owners in 36k).  

Should have it on 'trader rather than ebay I think.

Very very nice but no way is it worth £8K

is it f*** worth 8 grand!

thread repeated, twas posted a couple of days ago about this car
Title: Re: Is it worth £8000+
Post by: albitz on 14 July 2008, 19:27:51
like anything else its worth what someone is prepared to pay for it.and he is hoping that he can find a mug willing to pay 8 grand for a 4 grand car.
Title: Re: Is it worth £8000+
Post by: Jay w on 15 July 2008, 08:42:45
can i just point out the bidding starts at 8K, and there is a reserve that has not yet been met  :o

To sum up, nice car desirable spec (although for me it's missing sat nav and CID and rear blind) but grossly overpriced  ;)

Someone put the seller out of his misery please

There is another thread on here about this and a member did contact the owner, think he got a reply as well. Sure someone will be able to link it. :)
Title: Re: Is it worth £8000+
Post by: The Duck. on 15 July 2008, 19:23:25
I emailed him with this tread and this is the answer i got ;D


( I seemed to have provoked a big reaction everywhere,think that's a good thing! I brought this car in 2006 for £10,000 with 24000 on the clock,so as this is something of a special and in superb condition, feel as some member put "£5000 tops",is an insult. However, if someone came back with a sensible offer, I would consider!!.Oh it has only really had one previous owner, as the garage registered it to themselves for a few months. cheers Nick1425 )

8k. wow. i saw an irmscher omega on the 'bay, late 03, low miles, same spec, went for £3900. something tells me there won't be too many bids.  :(

Post by: amigov6 on 15 July 2008, 20:15:20
Is it break. Think it's been posted recently & i said nice but not that nice.
Title: Re: Is it worth £8000+
Post by: richardirv on 17 July 2008, 17:59:32
I also contacted the guy not realising that another member already had!! this was the response!

Hi, Thanks for your comments, I have created loads of interest with my car and the price, It is simple though, the car is superb and I am not prepaired to drop down cause everyone tells me to!. If nobody wants to pay that sort of money on an omega, they can go spend more on an m3. It will just have to stay with me which is fine, as I still get serious pleasure driving her.Cheers Nick

Seems he is in a bit of a huff from that response  :-?

Car is worth half that. Note he paid £10,000 2 years ago. So in todays Economic credit crunch, with the hike in petrol and the hike in tax he seems to think the car has suffered less than 20% depreciation  :o

Hmmmm. Good Luck
Title: Re: Is it worth £8000+
Post by: Danny on 17 July 2008, 18:24:10
he's wasted his listing fee then, because nobody will buy it as it is when an identical one without the alloys and kit will sell for less than half that

You can have my 2003 estate (rare breed facelift estates) for £8k and its already been converted to lpg.....  ;D ;D

And I'll take 100k of the mileage for you (be 36k then) at no extra charge  ;D ;D

No used omega is worth 8k im afraid.......the guys living in cloud cuckoo land......and im amazed he paid 10k when he bought it  :o ;D
