Hello,
Well you've all seen my other silver irmscher omega elite which I got fully resprayed just before christmas, well i've just picked up another omega which i won on eBay a Black 1998 MV6 with full irmscher bodykit already fitted and the best bit is it only cost me £711.00 ;D
Please excuse the photo quality as I took then with my mobile, I'II get better photo's at the weekend 8-)

You collecting Omegas these days, you could have a different coloured one for each day :)
Well for two of the days since two of your omegas are silver :D

I'd always fancied an MV6 in Black and this one was just the right price, full leather and xeon's :)

Looks like you bagged a right bargain there Jim. :y Whats the rest of the car like - interior, engine?

The interior is tidy, full mv6 leather, cardon fibre panels etc, the engine sounds ok, there is a couple of scratch's on the bodywork but nothing to serious :)

Plans are to fit facelift door mouldings and badges to it and to get the windows tinted and lower it30-40mm so watch this space 8-)

Can't believe you never mentioned the fact it had a droopy plenum. ;D
I'll 'Open it up' for you on the journey home at the weekend, you'll be able to see what it looks like from the back then. :y

Very nice find.... I'm not surprised you got it so cheap though, that has to be the worst eBay description I've ever seen!
That guy would struggle to sell water in Gloucestershire just now ::)
Still, no complaints. Bargain! Even more so if it's a manual, one of the many important things the seller neglected to mention.

Right, well yesterday (saturday) was free first full day to get to grip with my new MV6 and to sort out one or two job's which needed to be done on the car the first one was to get the headlight washers working so the first thing to do was take of the front bumper, and here are some photo's to show what I found;
No under bumper, and the washer bottle is held on by zip ties;

(http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/11/web/275000-275999/275300_284_full.jpg)
The hoses which connect the washer bottle to the headlight washer jets where blocked with a rawplug and a large screw

(http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/11/web/275000-275999/275300_286_full.jpg)
And the jet washers for the headlights where there but held in place by screws;
Also the mesh need to be replaced:

£700 is cracking price for a standard MV6, so one with the kit already on is a bargin!

There's no complain it's and easy fix, and I know why they've removed the under bumper. When i did my silver elite with the same irmscher front bumper it came with instructions and told you you had to remove (cut away) part of the under bumper so that the irmscher front bumper will sit properly, if the guy who had the car before me bought the kit second hand ie; ebay he wouldn't have the instruction book so when he went to fit the bumper to the car it woundn't fit so he probadly just removed the under bumper for ease, but I don't know why he didn't reconnect the headlight washers :-/

Gave the car it's first mod today, I managed to get a self dimming interior mirror from an elite for a fiver, what a bargin I couldn't believe it when he said a fiver :)
No complains from me ;D ;D
