I alternate between a Cavalier, Omega, Transit Van and 2 Transit Minibuses!

1 day I will attempt to put some pics up - it is hard keeping that number of vehicles clean enough to picture at the same time!

Perfect decription Martin!!!! If you get the chance to drive one, please do. They are great fun. It's no good trying to compare them to omega, chalk and cheese. But I guarantee, after a while, it will make you smile :)

For my daily commute I use one of these....

(http://www.aabikehirenewforest.co.uk/images/hardrock.jpg)

Specialized Hardrock Sport 2005.

4 times the number of gears than the Omega and just as quick (over 3 miles) when going into Derby's roadwork infested city centre!  ;D

Company car is currently a 325d Msport saloon, Got a 525d Msport saloon on order for June and then a 325i MSport convertible for about August.  If you hadn't guessed, I work for BMW and we get to change our cars currently every 3 months.

Omega is a weekend car - or at least it was until I reshaped the rear end with the garage door.
