Title: Scrapped
Post by: kevinp58 on 28 May 2014, 20:11:07

I saw a PFL outside a scrappies today that looked a good car, and it got me thinking, I wonder how many omega's have been scrapped because they had fixable problems  :-\ like for instance the oil cooler that was diagnosed by a bad mechanic saying the head gaskets have gone and it would cost hundreds to repair.  >:(

more than likely there are loads because people do not want to shell out hard earned cash on more repairs when they can pick migs up so cheap these days...

which is a natural part of their lifecycle, just like any other cheap to buy but not cheap to own car
