Introduction
« on: 21 September 2012, 08:23:57 »

I've been popping back and forth here since buying my omega last April. Now it's started to misbehave a bit I thought it was a good idea to join to share ideas.

I have a very late 2.5 V6 manual estate with 136K which cost me less than the scrap value of the P38 Range Rover I had before it. I've replaced the diff with a diesel one which has improved the fuel consumption and will pop an M tec chip in it to recover the performance such as it is.

It's a mouldy old thing both figuratively and in reality but all the family love it. I'm sure it lived under trees and near water for a lot of its life but little by little I'm making it look half decent.

My daughter calls it Herman the Sherman as it's a bit of an old tank. We did have a good laugh at the irony.
