MoT failure
Doctor Gollum:
Well, that was inevitable...
It failed.
Rear of both sills missing, front of the os sill now has a 5" hole in it and one of the brake pipes front to rear is donald.
Oh and leaving the test, the EML came on ::)
On a positive note, he made no comment on the headlights :D
So, do I 1. Buy another Omega estate, keep the recently replaced suspension and scrap the rest;
2. Get it repaired; or 3, sell it as is and buy something else?
Choices, choices...
Field Marshal Dr. Opti:
Ask TB to raid the OOF emergency fund, Al.
I believe £10,000 can be made available to senior members in need of a replacement car. :)
Nick W:
You can do the pipe for a fiver in bits and some work. Reroute it if necessary to make the job easier.
Sills are £50 each, with some welding. I have a pair here if you need them in a hurry.
Any Omega you buy is likely to need that, so fixing yours is a better idea.
