Glad all went well  :y

I just bought a 2.0 cdx to pacify the missus really, she hates my Volvo 850 T5, way too fast for her and damm bumpy due to uprated suspension. Really, really hoping now Im back with Omegas I dont get the 3.0 Elite bug  ::)

( not much hope is there )     ;)

No, there isn't  ;)
I'm going to do a Bilstein B6/20-30mill. drop on the F/L, and then the poly donut and wisbone front bushing.
Black leather and som 18 " sportstars or Brock B12.
And if Opel says it's OK, I will defenatly go for the 3,2 with manual :y :y :y :y
(realy got to stop driving my old car...)

Some pictures of my old one, that my son did take over :y He sold his 95 2,5 V6 to his cousin :)
He loves his new car alot, no wonder, regarding all the money and time I have spent on it :'( And it's a bitch driving it, and then going back to the F/L... But what the heck...he's 19, and deserves to have a little fun :y :y :y





A little low  :o :o

Sooo, not been here for a while, busy times.
But haven't happening much with the omega until now. Spending way to much time away from internet, and the car :'(
Just came back from my brother in Sweden, and he had something nice in his garage, that suited my car perfectly  ;D
This :)





And these I found in a scrapper in norway, did a refurb an new Nankang 225's.



And then a Cadillac Catera grill  8)




And this is what i've been doing today, all these parts are on it's way in to the spare engine of mine.
Have only done about 60K miles, but the engine have been standing still so long, so that the exhaust cam and three lifters had some serious rust on it, hence the complete teardown for inspection :)

I like your car, but I really don't like the catera grille. Somehow makes it looks cheap to me. Still, it's your car and I'm sure your happy with it. Keep up the good work  :y :y
