Omega B FL MV6 without spoiler?
29. May 2009 at 20:34
 
I thought that all Omegas B FL MV6 should have a small spoiler. I am currently looking for one of those. I found one with nice MV6 alloys, 3.0 V6 engine but it is without spoiler. Does it mean that it is actually not MV6? Undecided

All the retail ones did come with the spoiler. 'Special' ones sold outside retail, eg plod, generally don't

The one I found is W reg (B FL model), 3.0 V6, Cream leather, Electric seats with memory, sat navigation, bose sound system, heated seats, cruise control, climate control, An electrically operated rear screen sunblind and sunroof. Equipment suggest that it wasn't a police car, but lack of spoiler really confuses me...

What size wheels and what brand of tyres?
Also are there red switches (or holes) either side either side of the handbrake?

Should do.

Some of the Diplomatic Protection cars didn't, hence the questions I posted earlier.

i agree with other posters - its almost certainly an elite. sellers perhaps debadged it and is passing it off as an MV6 as they tend to attract higher prices.

with all the 2nd hand Omegas around - theres enough doubt to pass on this one Sad

run the reg no. through

Yes, and that always made me ask the question, which I still do, are rear spoilers of any worth,
as police pursuit vehicles travelling at top speeds don't require them?? Huh Huh

I was asking about spoiler only because I suspected rear damage and boot replacement from different model. I don't think that spoiler makes any difference in omega performance, but it looks good Smiley Unfortunately omega is not a F1 car...  Sad

I have lived with the principle of "if in doubt leave out" Wink

There are plenty more MV6's out there. Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up!
