I would suggest at least 150 plus postage if they are in reasonable nick. Omegas are not common!

As I am discussing price now, I will withdraw from possible purchase to try to be a little objective. Although I am biased in several respects.

I understood from previous threads that Omegas were regarded in this forum as boring and have sold at £10 per wheel. Is my memory wrong?

I have never seen a D24 700/900 with an engine undertray. I have a feeling it was not fitted to this engine variant for some reason although it was fitted to all the petrol engined ones.

My D24T 740 has a smallish undertray at the front, to catch all of the oil you invariably spill when changing the oil filter...

I always try to get away without removing it, to then find I need to remove it to clean the spilt oil.

Oops that is only part of my intended comment....

Re the typical £10 per wheel selling prices that is different from value. I feel that Aries, Scorpius, Omegas &c. have a good value but a typically low price. Different concepts.

Obviously I agree the price must depend on condition, including condition of any tyres. As these wheels have been in recent use I suspect the tyres must be good. So I suspect these Omegas might raise a higher price. And if they have a serious set of tyres they could command a price over £200 for the set of wheels and tyres.

Had a look at the wheels on the weekend - the rears have good tyres, with probably 4-5mm tread remaining, the front tyres have some tread but are cracking so I'd not want to use them too much...

A few kerbing marks on the rims but nothing major - I'd imagine somewhere around £100 for the 5 would be fair

If you don't sell the door cards, I would be interested in both front door pockets if not damaged and fit a 1996 940?

Also same for bumper rear silver top trim if it'll fit a 940 estate.

Drivers side mirror if electric and heated and works on all four adjustment settings.

Thanks. James

£100 for omegas?!?!

Random how loads of people seem interested in them but usually they struggle to be given away. That's the only way I could get rid of mine a couple years ago with decent tyres on. If you get that money for them then fair play but I wouldn't be surprised if you got a lot less for them.

Hi
I’m interested in just the rear seats if willing to split from front.
An idea on cost would be great
Thanks
Richard
