Title: My MV6
Post by: laughjimbo on 03 February 2010, 12:09:02
I have had this omega now for about 5 years and love it to bits, needs a little work now to a few rust spots and a few bushes, other than that runs like a dream!!

Thanks guys for the comments. I do not use it much and last year i was considering selling it but decided to keep. It has only covered 83,000miles and runs like a dream, needs a little attention now though as mentioned above, my brother in law is going to sort it out for me when the weather is better. I also need to get new rear shockers but want to keep it standard, car is totally standard and want to keep it that way. Got full leather interior and i bought it from a bloke in Milton Keynes.

Don't think that i will ever get rid of it despite having 3 cars!!

Nowt wrong with that!  ::)  ::)  ::)  ::)
There's double your milage on mine, but the car is worth more to me as a large comfy cruiser that will tow my caravan with ease than it is as a handfull of pound notes  :y

I have used this for towing and it is really good for it, it is a manual box too and i prefer that. I have got a 4x4 that i tow with nowadays and i have got a Volvo V70 T5 also but it is front wheel drive, i do like my MV6 rear wheel drive fun even though it does not have the power of my T5. Always liked my Vauxhalls and when i was looking for this one i wanted a Manual with leather and it took me ages to find a good one like this.

Assuming I ever have the cash to get mine back on the road, watch out for my Elite in Hemel. My parents live in Leverstock Green, my sis in Grovehill, and before I made the biggest mistake of my life and moved to Boston, I lived all my life there.

Started in Apsley, then went over the bridge onto the Manor estate for quite a few years before moving to Levy Green. Lived with my now wife for a short time in Nash Mills too. Embaressed to admit that i met her at Wally World (although we knew each other from junior school so thats what I tell people)

Whereabouts are you?

I am not far from Hemel, i live in Borehamwood but i do go over to Hemel a fair bit, especially when i am working at royal mail. I deliver to the mail center just up the road from the magic roundabout. Will keep an eye out. As i said earlier i looked long and hard for a manual with leather, i looked at loads of omega's where the description said immaculate and they were just sheds!!!
Strange what some people see as immaculate ;D ;D
