Value this for me?

[New POD]

Or rather persuade me that I should chase this car.

I like omegas 

I have a very high mile 231138 3.2 mv6.

It's not perfect but it works and it's quick.

Now there's a bloke who is getting rid if a 17k mile 2.5 CDX in burgundy. It's his mother's. She went into a home.

Pictures are amazing. 

No MOT since September 2017

P399 EVP for the mot history before that. 

It's done about 100 miles in the previous 4 years and since 2006 done 3000 miles in total. 

So pros.

It's a new car. 

Cons. 

It will need 4 tyres, cam belt, service, a battery, and an MOT.  I figure £400 before I'd get to use it really.

It will only have 168 bhp

It would not have an obd2 socket (I think) 

I'm in 2 minds to give a fuck. I can't really justify 2 omegas which are similar. Don't want to see the MV6 scrapped, but who would want it ?  

I don't really think I'd keep it immaculate.

But I would keep it road worthy.  

Probably press it into service and take it to 231000 miles. Which would take 10 years. 

If it were a 3.0 I might feel differently. I feel the difference in power to weight ratio might be effecting my judgement. 

Anyway what should I offer ? Should I offer at all? Can I be arsed? Why can't I be arsed?

I'd be interested in your MV6 (price dependant) but only short term, it would stay on here so to speak.

I don't find my 2.2 DTI slow, but I don't find it fast either. But it has done a smidge under 200k and wears the miles quite well. As I expect your current one does too.

I’d also consider your MV6 if it was cheap, to feature in my YouTube guff and then roffle.

Offer 200 quid if you want it. Or he can advertise it for a grand as a low mileage classic. The in 3 months come back to you and take 150 quid.

Or keep the MV6, if you think it will keep going
