[Squealey]

There are deadlines and being based in Boston we do have more than our fair share of traffic, but that honestly works in our favour. We have been told in no uncertain terms that if we are late to drop a car off then so be it. If the customer has to wait around for half an hour extra then thats whats going to happen, under no circumstances are we expected to speed or drive like Sebastian Loeb just to get the car there on time. (doesn't mean we cant have a bit of fun down the lovely back lanes with no hedges so you can see for miles around though )

Nice one Squealey, pleased for you. Maybe fix the miggy now?

Only got to adjust the rear brakes, fit new no plates and get the tracking sorted then its off to see how badly it fails the mot, then the road tax to pay for! Would like to have sorted it this weekend but im on baby sitting duties so will have to wait for another week now

IMHO......

Had loads of Fords, mostly bigger engined ones, (granada,sierra 4x4, mondeo ghia estates, etc,) nearly all V6s, never had a problem with the engines or bodywork, but none of them had a "soul" like the omega seems to have.
I know you will all think me silly, but this is the first car I have owned that I listen to every sound when i'm driving along, is totally effortless in everything it does, and is like driving your favourite leather armchair to work. My 3.0 V6 does about 24 mpg to work, but approx 30 mpg on a good motorway trip to london or exeter, and with the bose system playing my fav rock anthems couldn't ask for better.
What more could you ask for in a car?
Yes, its cost me a bit recently, but nothing any other car wouldn't have at the same age and mileage.
Fancy a newer 3.2 elite estate in black ideally, gotta be auto and have a pikey hook, and full leather, but love my 99er estate til i can afford a good-un.

So far so good, but its done at most ten miles since I done it due to lack of funds and everything else I touch going t*ts up. Hopefully will be back on the road within 2 weeks.
