Think I might have seen one yesterday parked on side of the road, not 100% as just a quick glance as I went by in traffic.

On the back of a flat bed being towed by a Mk1 X5  ;D

I saw the first Omega in ages a few weeks ago, it reminded me to collect the 3.2 Elite I accidentally bought from BCA and had left there for 6 weeks  ;D
I've now got a Prestige Blue (Z20Q) 3.2 Elite saloon parked here! Drove it today, it took me back 12/13 years when I drove one every day!

I've been selling really boring Hyundai / Kia things recently, and this 22 year old Vauxhall reminded me they're pretty good!

I guess the difference between appliance cars and real cars.  Still, I suppose the market is moving that way, so as a dodgy used car dealer, you have to follow.

Welcome back - we must be due a meet up at some point, seems to have been ages.  Was it when I nicked an XF for the day? LOL

Migv6 - thank you, it has been a long time but feels like being back in 2009 again  ;D

Johnny - yes, that's absolutely the car! Someone has looked after it, last reg'd keeper was in Swindon, but I didn't recognise the name or remember having seen the car before!

Jaime - Sadly you're correct, I still sell a few Range Rover's, and older Bentley's etc but really it's Hyundai Kona's, Kia Niro's. Tech is nice in them, but they do feel disposable and feeble compared to real cars!

Indeed, be great to catch up!

Kevin - well remembered  ;D and I think a very sensible suggestion!

I saw it listed on BCA, so presumed it was the same car. Following the sale I didn't see it appear on Ebay or A/T.  I was  little curious I guess as to where it had gone - hoping it hadn't been purchased to be broken for spares, so it's good to see that it may be looked after - for the short term at least! What do you propose to do with it?
