Hello from Leamington Spa
« on: 29 December 2013, 10:56:37 »

As I've just bought my second Omega Estate (Elite Auto 2.6 2002) thought I'd better join OOF. In my opinion this is a superb marque that in some respects exceeds the spec of the later models. The 4ft 1" wide tail gate clearance is especially useful. I have tested the Insignia estate and think this more of a sports car with its letterbox 3ft 3" opening at rear. (Golf clubs?) The Omega drive is excellent and suits my profession as a nationwide traditional sign writer. Half a ton of scaffolding, paint and equipment can be transported effortlessly and 30 plus mpg on long runs ain't bad for a fully loaded small lorry!  Sorry, your verification letters are poor; you do need to know which case to use and avoid ambiguous characters (those which might be from either case; or a numeral. All the best, Gadge 9122 ;)

Welcome to the site.

Apologies for the verification (which goes after a few posts), but the admins were having to spend too much time dealing with spambots  :'(

Hi, Welcome to the OOF.  :y

Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.
