One of my sad traits is I try to buy the exact model of every car that I have owned; got quite a few now ;D
Looked around for a facelift Omega for a while and by stroke of luck found one in a petrol station in Poland-it's a 1:38 Opel model by tin's toys and came in dark red metallic-not Persia like mine but like the Omega dark red metallic.
It's not a bad model-more of a toy than a collector's piece, but was very cheap at about £5.
I have checked tin's toys website and they have four 2000 facelift Opel Omega models; dark red metallic, gold metallic, dark blue metallic and black. See:

I also have a Metropolitan Police pre-facelift Vauxhall Omega saloon, 1:43 scale, marked Made in China NO 61053-bought on the boot sale for 20p.
Anyone else got models? Links?

I've got a 1:43 facelift saloon in Nocturno blue made from resin. Very accurate and looks good.
Also have a 1:43 schuco model of the pre facelift.

What make is the resin model? Is there a persia facelift??

It was specially made for me, it came in kit format. So I had to get a schuco donor model for the wheels, base plate and windows etc. I then sprayed it Nocturno blue as I used to have a 2.2 CDX that colour. It's cost me about £75 I expect. It's not quite finished yet, haven't had the time. When I get round to finishing it, I'll post some pictures if you want?

Not sure how this came about, but being sold as a one off and may be of interest to any OOFer with police interest, especially TVP:

Opel badged, so guess a standard Opel die cast model, hand finished as a promo piece with the TVP decals, campaign and light bar? Interesting anyway...
