bought the Elite estate new as i needed a comfortable van at the time, and over the years its been well used and abused by me and my employees. noticed that many on here either don't have omegas now or have an omega plus another car. whats your current daily driver, omega or another?
-
Omega 2.5 or 2.2 depending on which one is currently working!
-
Omega when it's fixed.Shank's pony until then.
-
VW Touareg here and a Rover 75 plus a Focus for work :y
-
I got three Omega's, and the daily drive is the one facing the right way ;D :y
-
Mainly the Mitsubishi 4x4 hybrid now but like to use my 3.2 manual MV6 during the Summer months
-
Hi there I use my omega as my main car and I have my s3 for when I'm repairing or modifying it lol i prefer my omega Than my s3 aswell ;D

Volvo for daily drive, either S80 or V70 ( for the dog), MV6 for fun once a big list of jobs are done! ;D

Volvo s80 at the moment ,but just bought a 53 plate 2.6 elite as a project/money pit.

If I am going down the road I take the one pointing left, if up the road, the one pointing right. :y

As my Omega is off the road at the moment patiently waiting for rear wishbone bush renewal, my daily drive at the moment is a borrowed VW Beetle soft top! ::) 8) :y

Just a coincidence that it happens to be parked outside "World of Whiskies", of course. ::)

:o
steering wheel on wrong side,no wooo wooo lights.
didn't see it this mornings when I was on the sth side...
-
There be two reasons for that... 1. I started work two minutes ago, and 2. I'm based in the North terminal ::)
Pic doesn't show it but it does have an orange light and a dead duck squarky noise, oh and a rather loud horn ;D
-
Do the stickers on the side signify confirmed kills, Al? ;D

Ford Ranger here.
Quite impressed with it Tbh,much better tow car than I thought it would be,super stable with pikey van behind,mines a 2.5Tdi which is around 170bhp stock but just around 200 with a chip and plenty of torque,drives like a big car rather than an off roader :y
-
Thanks Henry - good to know :) I was idly pondering them for when the Ranger needs replacing as they have the same tow capacity with slightly less inconvenience of dragging around a metre and a half of truck bed ;D (Although that came in very useful last weekend to take a 1.8m garden table plus six chairs!)

Opel Astra 2014 1.4 Turbo is for daily use & city. Mitsubishi Galant 1993 & Opel Omega 1995 for fun & race. & My dad`s car for travel & offroads!
-
anyone got an "interesting" motor as a daily driver? all so far fairly "uninteresting"
-
Tr6 anyone?
-
All my cars are Omegas, so that's what I drive. The two I prefer are the ones with the JVC radio/cassettes player/12 disc magazine CD player, because I love the random play of any track in the magazine option. The 4 disc Vx player only randomises tracks on the selected CD, that's no good to me.

I've a friend who uses an NSX as his daily, which means his 'toy' can be really silly. It's a quadcarbed, Rover engined Ford model Y hot rod in dark green with ghost flames. Their garage includes an Avantime and a tuned Jensen Interceptor for added interest.

If it's not raining BMW R1200 GS. ::)

< ------ The Burgundy one

Daily hack is my beloved 1998 3.0l LPG'd MV6
On rare occasions, I get to drive my 2003 3.2 LPG'd Elite that Mrs TB is always using
As a punishment, I occasionally have to use the shitbox Zafira, just to keep the battery charged.
