Welcome to OOF
Don't think it does really on newer motors with 8+ speed autos...True, but I am a lazy 2 pedal lover!
....
Nowt lazy about 2 pedals
It does hammer the em pee gees though.
TC lockup is practically always engaged too, unless hammering it.
A truly versatile creature, that's efficient and fully used. Even the skin is put on our seats.The cow spent it's life eating greenery .I'm still not going to start eating salad and other rabbit food thoughA bit of lettuce can be quite tasty, in a bun, with a lump of beef and cheese.
One of my 5 a day.
they robbed it's milk to make cheese and then killed it for beef
Just don't tell the vegan mob...
Took the Big Black Pussy for a gentle cruise up the motorway after work... ...and bumped into that DTM geezer. As it was raining, we went for a cruise in Mrs DTM's milk float. Handles quite well for something that weighs more than a lorry
Why does John Major's opinion seem to carry so much weight with the media? It's like he's some kind of elder statesman when, in the job, he was known as the grey man. He needs to shut his cakehole.

I still also think that in its day, the Senator had more of a prestige feel and look about it than the Omega did in its day.
Course it did. The Senator was a peg above the Carlton ..... when the Omega appeared, it replaced both cars.
I agree, but the claimed 0-60 of the TR6 stretches credibility as much as Fords claimed power output figures for the Essex V6 did.
A figment of some marketing mans imagination.
Yep...200 miles in a low geared 4 speed Escort from the seventies would not be much fun in 2022. However, the Omega can still crush the miles today in comfort.
My 1500 automatic Avenger was one of three in the Coventry Motor Museum car park for the owner's club AGM. The other two were local cars. It was quite happy at 70mph on the M1, although there wasn't a lot left
I seem to remember such a beast known as the Avenger Tiger. Usually yellow, I think.
Was bound to happen.
I was just wondering..........how the hell is Boris now going to have his weekly audience with the Queen and manage to look her in the eye after all thats happened ?
My mate spent £28,000 buying a MGB GT V8 & importing it from New Zealand & is now spending upwards of £25,000 having it completely stripped down & rebuilt , utter waste of money in my opinion for a car which stays in the garage for around 350 days of the year & will no longer be "original". I will admit that the engine sounds beautiful but after a ride in it you appreciate how much vehicles have improved since 1974.
