Replacement wheels
« on: 02 October 2014, 19:10:55 »
No, not gay alloys, a new ride.

Not sure I want another Omega, after 11 years. But don't really want to pay a massive amount at the moment either, for other reasons.

Big(ish). 4/5 doors. Mile cruncher. Reasonably cheap to run. Some element of performance and handling required, but doesn't have to be mental. Auto or manual.

Not until they learn how to design a chassis, thoroughly incompetent.

Aye. Not for me though. I'd be screaming at it every day. In manual form maybe, though I'd soon tire of the Omega manual box
