Title: My Irmscher Omega, In Italy Towing a Boat!!!!!
Post by: Jim on 18 April 2010, 13:46:11
Well yesterday I had a day of work so took the car for a drive to Porta Ceresio, on the shores of Lake Maggoria in Northern Italy and the best part is my work friend said I could borrow his boat, lucky I have a detachable tow bar on the mig :y

How long would it take you to get to see the sea? We've spoken about this before, the furthest you can be from a sea in the UK is about 70 miles/110km  ;)

No, we had a unit there which we where closing, and they had three 16 seat Opel Novano minibus's which we where shipping to italy but with the flight's not flighting we where going to drive them back to Italy but the had speed limiters fitted so it would have been a very slow drive back :o

The wheels are 18" and the off set is ET38, and the irmscher suspension kit lowers the car by 30mm :y
