Title: MV6 estate.
Post by: Amigo on 10 January 2010, 18:48:20
I've bought Markey Marks MV6 3.0 manual est. She's mine now so please don't let any past events cloud your judgement. To reiterate she's a mini facelift on an S plate rare original 3.0 manual MV6 estate in silver. MOT oct. tax March so ready to go with 102k on the clock & 4 previous owners. 19 inch 5 spokes all refurbeb by my mate Steve (some of you have met him) 2 years ago with good Michelins. Irmscher front & rear kits (bit like Bob Dents facelift), white dials & blue bulbs..even on the sunroof switch.., full black recaro leather, including door cards, Bose sounds with the better head unit & smaller dash display. 4 new rear bushes replaced with Senator ones, facelift outer door trims fitted & painted to match, leather/moulded carbon fibre effect steering wheel (RARE).. i could go on & on.
   Bad points, Handbrake will need attention for next Mot, rear arches are bubbling & drivers window is shut but won't open. (you can hear a solonoid click when you hit the switch) all other windows work fine including rear wash/wipe.

  Drives really smooth & tight, no knocks or wobbles. Make an offer if interested as i don't know what she's worth. I won't take silly money but won't be greedy either as i'd like her to stay on the forum.
  P.M me with offers(many of you know the car) or with any questions. Viewing is welcome & i'll post piccies as soon as the hose thaws out & i can wash her!!! Guy. :y

It would be worth more to break but that would be sacrilege!

Post by: Amigo on 12 January 2010, 22:45:04
I have 2 members pm ing me about the car. I was led to believe there was a little distrust regarding whether i'd actually bought the car & was trying to move it on for MM. Despite him being a good mate i accept his downfalls but would never do this to any of you. Cash has parted hands, the car now belongs to me & is parked in my drive. I have all the relevant doccies. Despite my loyalty to Mark & my gob running away with me at times i'm honest & not totally immoral, i don't have a good enough memory to be a liar!!! It hurts me a little that after all these years an element of distrust has set in & i hope this sets things straight. Mark has signed the V5 over but i hav'nt sent it off yet with the car only having 4 previous keepers. If she does'nt stay within the forum then i will change the V5 over. The first pic Skruntie posted is the most recent but i'll try to post pics as she is tomorrow...work.....or by saturday at the latest.
     Any good MV6 is worth a grand & i'd love her to stay in house. I'm honestly not trying to tuck anyone up, despite the recent hoo hahs with Mark please don't think that of me, Guy. :y
    
Title: Re: MV6 estate.
Post by: Lazydocker on 12 January 2010, 22:51:14
Guy, as I said in the other thread... Don't take it personally! I don't think the distrust is aimed at you :y :y
Title: Re: MV6 estate.
Post by: Mr Skrunts on 12 January 2010, 22:54:52
Guy, you made the offer to register it and add annother keeper, if thats what they want then take the deposit and do it, thier loss.

2 people interested eh, looks like being one loser then, some needs to make thier mind up or lose a very nice motor.
Title: Re: MV6 estate.
Post by: Entwood on 12 January 2010, 23:09:40
GUY ... whilst I seriously applaud your attempts to keep this loverly motor "in house" ... methinks it might be worth your while selling it elsewhere ... 2 reasons.

1) You'll probably get a better price

2) I'm concerned about "long term" hassle .. if folks are having a go already, and doubting your honesty, (and AFAIK there is absolutely no reason to do so), then every time the slightest thing happens they will seek to blame you. If you then don't leap to their aid they will further blame you. Both totally unreasonable but it will happen I feel sure.

Are you willing to take on such a burden ???

2 points well made sir ;)

I do feel a bit caught up in the crossfire TBH. Just trying to help a mate out & offer an OOF member something you can't go & find anywhere. If she does'nt sell here soon i'll wait a while, & put her on ebay.
    She'll sell all day, id rather she stayed here but feel she has a bad rep now. Not the car's fault & a crying shame but sh*t sticks. :(
Title: Re: MV6 estate.
Post by: simonb on 13 January 2010, 12:48:51
Not sure what all this is about really,i was looking at the pictures and thought it looked a very nice car and only over the bridge from me then get reading the later posts about the car having "a bad rep" and sh*t sticking etc.
I have no idea what as gone on in the past regarding this car so my question is,is there something wrong with it,does it have some sort of dodgy history,was it owned by a known bodger?
Seems to me this advert is going to turn into a reason not to buy the car quite soon,looking from my point of view that is as someone new ish bto the forum.
oh and how much is it please?
Thanks
Simon

Exactly the opposite IMHO .. but to give you some background... this car was owned by Markey Mark who was a well known breaker with many sales in the "parts" section. Unfortunately in recent times he seemed to stop sending parts out despite taking folks money... this lead to seveal disputes

http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1209069730

and to his eventual banning as he did not take any of the chances given to rectify the situation.

AmigoMV6 is a friend of Marks and discovered that the guy is going through a tough time that involves a marriage break up as well as other personal matters....

He has purchased the car and is selling it on, however some folks seem to think the fact that Mark owned it and Mark let some folks down somehow "taints" the car.

That is the short version and I hope it is reasonably accurate.

The car IS known to the forum .. but for all the right reasons.

HTH .. :)
Title: Re: MV6 estate.
Post by: simonb on 13 January 2010, 14:03:18
Thank you for that,with being new to the forum the previous owners history was all beyond me and to be fair none of my business as he is no longer an active member so not likely to have any dealings with him.
The car looks the part and if known to members of the forum as being looked after i really can't see why the previous owners problems affect it in any way,always better to know some history behind a car imho.
Good luck with the sale. :y
Still no idea how much it is though. ;D
Title: Re: MV6 estate.
Post by: Entwood on 13 January 2010, 14:10:44
I think Guy is looking for something in the region of £1000 - £1200 ... but don't hold me to that ... Give him a PM and make him an offer .. worst he can say is "no thanks"..

Although I am only a junior member if I had the money I would be having it straight away then fitting my 'bloody pikey hook/shin smasher' as it ticks all the boxes for me.Then trying to explain to swmbo that i need to get rid of both my other Omegas may also present another problem. :y

As Mark recently owned it, it will be a good un.

I've been out of the forum for a while now and I know the car. And I know Mark. The car is a known car and will do the new owner proud.

As for Mark.. There would have had to have been VERY good reasons why he couldn't follow through with the deals.

I'm not gonna continue anymore with this but have to say..

It's easy kicking a man  when he's down

yea, if the car is sold there is no need to continue with the thread, perhaps the mods can lock it so that it doesnt get out of hand?
