I had an ask on the ABS before this site was even thought of, and the best they could come up with was 'M'otorsport.

The reason I asked was that someone asked me in a service station on the A50 near Derby, and I was embarassed that I didn't know.

HAving said that, does anyone know what XR stands for?  ::)

All guess work! Huh. Amateurs!

M in MV6 stands for, Mostly on axle stands having the NEXT job fixed. V stands for Very often requiring repair. 6 stands for six times the cost of any other car for repairs by vauxhall.

Now, ELITE (before you ask) stands for:

Every time you want to use it, something new will be wrong.
Little works regularly
If you think that is the end of this years bills, think again
Told you it would cost more
Even I didn't plan for that going wrong!

CD?
Crap
Design

CDX?
Crap
Design
X cluding the nice interior (which is still crap)

REFLECTION?
Real Omegas are not this bad
Everyone knows this is the happy shopper model
For goodness sake, tell eveyone you bought an Elite
Low level specification compared to a real Omega
Even a skoda is better equiped than this
Crap from front to back
Tow it away for f***s sake
I am too mean to pay for a real Omega
Only this model embarresses my Gran
Nobody else on this forum has one!

ED?
Everyone knows that this is the bottom of the
Dump

PLOD?
Police
Loved racing this and chasing
Over enthusiastic thieves who would put
Dents in this model regularly - hence why evey panel is a different colour.

But he missed GLS?  :-?

Does that stand for Good Looking Slug??  ::)
Title: Re: What does the M in MV6 stand for?
Post by: mijfife on 14 October 2006, 19:12:49
Most appropriate for GLS would be Giant
                                                   Load
                                                   Shifter   :)

or could be Goes Like Sh*t ( I wish, mine is only a 2ltr  :()

Cheers Jim

No - Gls was missed on purpose because it just doesn't deserve a mention! ;D Today in derby Laidback and me saw several nice looking Omega facelift estates etc, 'wow that looks good..... oh its a GLS' was the general conversation.

 :'( :'( Whats wrong with a GLS then??  The base models will be the rare ones when the Omega gets classic status, how many mk1 Granada's do you see in base trim at shows for example??

I always like the underdog, hell I'm into Hillman Imps after all  ;D

Cheers, Jim  (defender of the GLS)  ;)
