if you could mate, i'm madly considering it, cos you can get nice ones for about £4k, just fed up of mental kits n piffly engines, fancy some leather n luxury, also 20s

My dad paid £11995 for his bout 10 months ago - got low mileage tho
£4k could pick u up a 95/96 elite with leather etc...3.0, want manual or auto?
What pics u want...out side or inside shots??

you mean saxo? golf? 106? nah, i cant be arsed with all that anymore, driving like a looney is boring, i value my license too much, i could always get a track car in the future.
the way i see it is an excellent ice install, tidy up the body (grill, badges off etc), lower it a tad, some massive kahns or something like that, tints, nice burbling exhaust them some pimpin

I didn't mean a saxo etc  There are a few nice Mercs about with AMG goodies etc for little money. Sounds grandadish but they look nice in black with 18'' rims etc

If you want a driving car dont go for anything below a 2.0, my opinion obviously!

the omega does handle well. the chassis was always compared to being as good or as better than a 5 series. never driven one myself but prepare to lose loads of money on it
