I'm glad there is some love for the Saab!

Anyone for a manual Vauxhall Omega MV6?

Always liked these, although I prefer the look of the pre facelift version.

Nice, not the fuel consumption though...

That is, without a shadow of a doubt, the worst car ever posted on this thread. I therefore feel a strange sort of want for it.

Who would be buying it? It looks, well...

Not bad these, if you can fit in it and don't mind the image (I can do neither)

Taxed & mot too.

If you were that person, wouldn't you just create a new account for each item you were selling? It's almost that they're proud of their feedback. One has to wonder why people keep buying from them too though, eh?

Cheap trackday toy/B-road blaster? Nasty bonnet and painted calipers, but looks to be free of other mods that would ruin it, like the usual "Lowered 60mil!" nonsense....

Can't see anything indicating engine size. The manual was only an option on the 2.5/2.6 though - if I remember correctly only plod-spec 3.0/3.2's had the manual box.

To be honest, I'd rather it with the autobox. In fact, when I get bored with the ZT, another Omega (either an Elite or MV6) could well be on the cards to replace it.....

I'm pretty sure the MV6 was available as a manual to Joe Public - I'm sure I drove one of the facelift ones at Bedford on a Autocar/Vauxhall day in 1999.

Looking at their selling history it appears they mostly sell "Spares & Repairs", v cheap stuff that needs work. Judging by my experiences on Ebay it's amazing how often people do not read the description.

Negative feedback follows.

The MV6 could be had as a 2.5/2.6 or 3.0/3.2. The 2.2 was available with the same body kit and trim in 'Sport' spec.

Ideal for the summer and its not to leggy either.
I have one myself and can throughly recommend one the build quality is fantastic, mines just been packed up and washed and polished for a early start and a 300 round trip to santa pod tomorrow,
Not that I would wish to do the quarter mile in it.

Great cars - Mrs Seeker ran one for 3 years - until the hood electronics failed and then it became very expensive to fix. Of course, if the one in the sale has a manual override, it's no problem.

Tidy looking VR6...
