Title: Another Omega bites the dust
Post by: Andy B on 11 July 2014, 14:57:53
I've just received an invoice from a recovery firm for 'removal, storage & disposal of vehicles....... ' of what was my Omega (DVLA must be on a go slow)

Presumably he's written it off on the motorway somewhere. I knew I should have removed the Irmscher 'wooden steering wheel from it before it went  >:(

Shame that, it had never wanted for anything  :'(

Yes, 1999. I was a nice car, it'd had loads spent on it over the years. Probably spent its retail value on various paint jobs eg the bonnet ..... spot the washers  ;)
