Title: Found an unlikely Spanish Omega enthusiast!
Post by: Varche on 10 September 2011, 10:58:56

Most unlikely too. In our next local village is a chap who runs an old fashioned garage. You know the type - 50 cars in a compound, most of which look destined for the scrapyard. Another 15 out on the road for sale. Covered buildings with about 4 million pieces of cars which might just one day "come in".

Last night he flagged me down and asked me "do I like Omegas?". He has three manuals! two turbo diesels and a wait for it 2.5 V6 (rarity in Spain most are diesels) It was too dark to have a look at any of them. He asked me if I had a 2.5 V6 engine spare. Huh where was he two weeks ago when mine went to the scrap yard. He made me smile when he said he had two good V6 exhaust systems inside if I needed one ( I am hoping to sell the car before it gets to a new exhaust) He might just be a potential buyer as he was admiring the leather interior and memory seats.............

Not a potential member of OOF as he speaks no English, in fact the Andaluz he speaks would be hard for some Spaniards to understand. ;D ;D

Small world as I have only ever seen two Omegas locally. a 95 diesel with senator wheels and a very,very nice facelift diesel saloonelegance. If I ever see the owner of the latter, I might ask if it is for sale. :y
