Vaux Heritage clear out
« on: 24 April 2021, 16:52:03 »
Not seen it mentioned anywhere so thought I'd pop a link to the auction for the Vauxhall Heritage fleet downsizing, shiny T reg Elite up for grabs, what do you reckon it will fetch ? 

https://auctions.manorparkclassics.com/auction/lot/lot-49---1999-vauxhall-omega-v6-elite/?lot=93&so=0&st=&sto=0&au=2&ef=&et=&ic=False&sd=0&pp=48&pn=2&g=1

If it's rust free, then it will make a good classic, and might well fetch a grand or three :-\

But...

It's done 75k, has no MoT, needs a cambelt, and unless it's not cherished/not used/kept in a garage it will rust and will require suspension work in the not too distant future.

And that's not counting anything that needs fixing after being sat.

Nice at the time, Tig, but probably disappointing these days. I loved my cortina mk4, and always said I'd love another, but I bet I wouldn't.  ;D

I had one 15 years ago. All revs, front wheelspin and torque steer. I found it pretty tedious tbh.

The one owner xj-s convertible V12 with 65k on it looks a good buy to me.

The nova will make good money, because it's a two door body-shell. The rally resto brigade will bid that, the Manta might make £5500,  again if two people want it might go to£7000, I'm out.

I had one for a while (apropos of bugger all, it was ex Johnnie Morris, TV animal guy), it was a very nice car, very comfortable, went very well. Foolishly ‘upgraded’ to an XJ6, which was crap.  :(

Watched and bid on this today - but in the end went for £3,600 plus 15% prem.

Not a bad price I suppose - nice car for a future keep
