Fantastic looking car John, I would have given my right arm to have a car as good as that when I was 21, I think at that age I was driving a Mk 1 Escort, with a Flintstones-style floorpan 
Welcome to the forum 
Jon
All I will say to that Jon, is that I work bloody hard for my money. I enjoy my nights out obviously, but i'd rather spend my free cash saving aside for my cars & bits etc, or work weekends for extra money instead of pissing it up the wall! TBH, insurance & purchase cost weren't a factor, its the fuel costs i'm dubious about; the only realistic consideration to factor is my Calibra was a second car (alongside my Vectra C) - so £140 Vectra finance + £80 Vectra Insurance + £110 Calibra Insurance + Fuel costs for the month means technically running the Omega is cheaper than previous experiences, even using it on a daily basis

My commute is only 16 miles round trip daily anyway...
On that note though, I must admit i've had plenty of sheds! I think this is car 32 in 4 years!! (I've lost count

)
