For popping over with his jack and confirming TBE is boogered.

As he was here, and has gadget hands, got him to check the HBV on the Silver Bullet, before discovering that the Bullet is boogered as well.


Oh the joys of Omega Ownership.


Thanks tunnie, top bloke as always :y

Or money. Given recent events, and exclusion clauses in the small print, I can't commit to any major expense.

Sounds interesting, might have to come see that. They appear plentiful & good prices

This is the last of the 2005+ S60's. Very well built, and does feel more sturdy than the Omega. This is the 2.0T model, so has 180bhp from a straight 5 engine, mated to a 5 spd manual. It does return 30.7mpg pretty much however it's driven. It is FWD however, I would go for the S80 model in all honesty. The S60 is a good car, but is more of a Merc C / 3 series competitor, the S80 is more matched to the Omega.
