Never a popular car. I can't see a grand on it despite the condition.
   Stick it on ebay with a low (not a grand) reserve. :y

If a Scorpio nut wants it you might get a decent amount, otherwise a couple of hundred at best.

Due to the styling noone wants one and a person looking at that area of the market will be looking at better styled cars like - what we drive.

It's only the small engine as well, not big enough for the Granada imho

Sorry to say that your really asking too much, it may be in great condition and have all the toys - but it's not the cossie and the miles are against it (despite being below average) my advise would be MOT it and try at £800 and be prepared to drop to £650 just to get rid.

I had one of these when they first came out and never met anyone who liked it  :-[

I had a 2.9 4x4 Ghia X Manual, stacks of torque and long ratio gears, but the 2.9 only puts out 150BHP, compare that and the fuel economy, speed and comfort of the 2.5v6 omega and there is no comparison.

Yeah the later cosworth was much better and faster had 209 BHP I think.
