Nice :)


Similar colour to my "05" Hyundai Matrix Manual 1.5 3 cylinder diesel, a god awful car ;D  but can achieve 50-60mpg on a run. Its the Only way i justify keeping a Omega. Use the Hyundai for local run's in town for shopping etc. and the Omega for days out or long journeys. Oh and it only cost £450 last summer  ;)

Went to london to see the darkness, got smashed  ;D they were awesome by the way. and the 'ammersmith apollo a really intermate venue. really awesome  :y :y :y
oh and we got to london early to do a bit of sightseeing.... that shard building is abslutely epic. it was so tall you couldnt see the top for mist  :o :y

ANYWAY. the car review:

its very very quiet. she idles really nice with no surging. as for the interior the seats are firm with side bolsters. ironically the firmness is actually very very comfortable and my bac felt like it had been massaged after the 100 mile journey  8)

as for toys. front eleccy windows. heated and electric mirrors (they fold in when you lock up the car  8)) climate control. cd. cubby holes EVERYWHERE including a really handy one right in the middle of the dash fdor sat nav and stuff. ##really happy  8)

still aint got pics. will get some tomorrow ;)
