last date of the meega
« on: 11 September 2006, 14:53:18 »
Hi everyone,

Can anyone tell me when the last month and year that they stopped producing the beloved omega,

My mate is a taxi driver and needs to know if he can buy one that is under 4yrs old to the month?

Thanks

Well, last week when I was driving through Shrewsbury I say a Police Omega Estate with a 54 plate, don't know how because I thought they stopped building them in 2003, not unless they where old un-registered stock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

I have been reliably told that a certain Police Force (no names on here) bought the last 10 3.2 specials off the production line and, at last count, 8 of them are still sitting in mothballs, unregistered, in a storage garage, so entirely possible to see 54 plates or newer....

It would be nice to pick one of those up in a few years time unused and going cheap :)
