Title: Long Live Queen Omega
Post by: Lizzie_Zoom on 12 July 2013, 16:55:10
In response to Opti's request in my last thread on the Bentley v. Omega issue, here is some of my own pictures of my new 2003 3.2 Elite beast - engine included Opti - and note how "new" that engine bay is!

The car looks beautiful!!
Well done on getting a good example.

Good luck with yours.

Thanks all for your kind comments. 8) 8) 8) :y

After almost two weeks of ownership I am as happy with her as I first was.  She purrs like a dream and is still like a brand new Omega in so many ways. She was first owned by Vauxhall management as I understand, then by an owner who maintained the "VX only" service and parts policy, but did low mileage. :y :y

A very fine example. At 55k I can't believe how clean the engine is. A very good find, well done.  :) :y :y :y :y

Hopefully, she will give you many years of good service.  :)

Sorry, to see what you, your family and TBE have gone through. The main thing is that you and your family are all okay, where everything else can be repaired.

Looks to me as though the car was collateral damage. I dread to think what a picture taken facing the other way will reveal :-\

Is this in any way related to the forum outage on Thursday morning?

@Lizzie - stunning motor and so so clean under the bonnet - but that will all change once your cam cover gaskets let go  ;)

Lovely car LZ, still kicking myself for not buying the green estate that RB bought and sold for £2k more......... :( :( :(

Post by: PhilRich on 13 July 2013, 09:41:47
Crikey TB! :o
That looks like the remains of a roof and a galvanised lintel so some fairly serious structural damage to the house. As for the poor car, I sincerely hope you weren't sitting in it at the time :'(
Thank goodness you all appear to have got away relatively unscathed, the house etc can be made good! :y
