But sooooooooooo ugly ;D
-
need to be lowered slightly too, looks a bit 'off-road'
-
seen them in Australia, have a lot over there.
-
A bit bland but a proper sleeper that one :y
-
I love those.. well, not that one specifically - it looks jacked up on those silly wheels and I'm not a fan of that particular era Skyline.
A nice R34 Stagea GT-R conversion would be good, though.. but a tad expensive for a load lugger!

I like the "performance estate" concept. My mate has a Legacy GTB estate, proper bit of kit. I also like the Legnum VR4. Oh, the things I could replace the Omega with if it A) doesn't plod on forever, or B) it was worth anything to sell...

Just what i was thinking when i first spotted it :)

saw this thread and started looking at related estates.....
Quite taken by the Blitzen legacy estates.
Not sure that I want to do the grey import thing, but they look really good.
Quite impressive bhp for 2 litres. Look big too.
I'm still waiting for the Euromillions win so I can import the VXR8 estate (in a rather large garage of other stuff, for sure.....) ;)

250 BHP and £2,500?
Why not get one of these brilliant bits of kit for loads less :-* :-*

Can get them much cheaper than that too, picked one up for £700 on a '52' plate last week, the noise, power, and the amount of people who think it really isn't that fast :-* :-* :-*

I went to Germany at the start of the year. I never knew they did them and for the first time I saw a Mitsu Evo 9 estate. Proper Evo too, not just a lancer.

Yep, a V70 T5, they sound great, are good load luggers, and are lovely cars, with one of the most comfortable set of seats I've ever sat in :-* :-*

I reckon Saab seats are better though :y

I think you've got its attributes the wrong way around, but I agree. It was one of my options when I bought the Omega. I can't get comfortable in Mercs(sitting on the floor, legs straight out and the wheel rubbing my thighs is NOT comfortable); I had a BMW estate(E34 525) that was hopeless as an estate and full of irritating design/engineering that haven't improved. Audis are tarted up VWs with the basic usefullness diluted in favour of pretend sportiness/'premium' styling&features that cost a packet even second hand.
The Omega's attraction for me is that it's simply a big, comfortable, effortless, unpretentious, quality car, just Granadas. And that's always been Volvos selling point.
