Title: New friend from France
Post by: Valentin on 01 April 2025, 14:45:10

Hi everyone!

I'm Valentin, 36yo, drive Opels from the beginning and freshly happy owner of a 3.0 MV6 from 1996.

I wanted to register here because, as I'm actually part of the french club Calibra-Classic, I know how valuable a place like this forum can be. This place is full of great advices and information, so first, thanks a lot :y

Then, of course, the Omega I just bought has some small issues and I need some help.

Long story short, I found the car 3 weeks ago on the french gumtree "leboncoin". The seller was in the north east, the town is called Laon. It's 680km from my home, but the specs and the fact that it had only one owner from new made me decide to go with a friend and come back by the road.
So, here it is, the Omega MV6 full option. I don't know if it's called MV6 too in the UK, I saw some Elite or something like that.

Thanks for the warm welcome, I know there is my partner in crime here, his pseudo is Lookitt and he drives a 3.2 B2. I was with him when I found the classified ad of this MV6 ;D

We are both at the board of Calibra-Classic club :y We have a third partner at the board but he doesn't have an Omega... Yet :P
