Just met my Omega's original owner on here!!
« on: 26 July 2011, 11:26:54 »
Had a PM sitting in my inbox this morning from paul.lovejoy who recently joined the forum and turns out he's the original owner of my MV6 when he first aqquired it as an ex-demo car from Vauxhalls. :o I always wondered about it's original origins and it was really nice to find out and have a chat.
Welcome to the forum Paul and good chatting to you. :y

From what Paul told me, due to business difficulties he was forced by Inland Revenue to surrender it back to the finance company who I assume would have sent the car to auction or sold on to a trader. I don't recall Rod saying where he purchased the car from. The log book says 3 previous owners so presumably the second owner could have been the finance company. :-/
