Car Parts, bits For Sale & Wanted / Re: 3.2 engine for sale
« on: 19 March 2016, 10:32:41 »Not a payday loan.You've had no end of help, either advice or people coming to help you do work on your car from people off the forum with your previous Omegas. I cant understand why you get them sorted out and then flog them off
It's not economically viable, point taken thanks.
It seems like the head gasket has gone on mine (aaccording to an experienced mechanic) so it's going to be expensive to get fixed. I do want to get it sorted but it's very difficult to find a solution.
I know everyone on the oof thinks I'm stupid, and they are mostly right. I'm interested in cars but I've never had a chance to learn much, hence my idiotic questions. My housemate also calls me stupid for messing about with Omegas so I don't know why I bother really. I've never had a dad to ask and I don't have any brothers so I've got no-one to ask for help.

Might have been a bit closer if it had been a proper GP bike rather than a tweaked road bike. I would have given old trowel chin a race on my Vespa

« on: 19 March 2016, 10:19:40 »Hi Serek. Could I replace my 2.5 diesel with your 3.2? Mines a manual.
No disrespect Kate but if you can't afford £28 for a water pump and thermostat what are the chances of forking out £300 for an engine plus another small fortune on fitting fees
I was thinking about getting a small loan to cover the cost.
Kate you need to be sensible here. Get a price to fix all the faults that are keeping your car off the road and weigh that up against how much the car is worth and how much its going to cost to buy a car that's already sorted and on the road

I used to sell them in the 80s. Comet Birkenhead had a massive storeroom at the rear which used to be an old DIY place. We managed to write 3 of them off holding races around the stock room. Happy days

Car Parts, bits For Sale & Wanted / For Sale Irmscher Estate Rear Spoiler
« on: 27 February 2016, 16:14:49 »
I answered a wanted ad mid January for one of these and struck a deal but have decided to put it back up for sale after having no contact.
Irmscher mini facelift estate rear spoiler but will fit facelift Omegas. In generally good condition but one of the nuts has pulled out of the spoiler but this can easily be sorted by bonding a suitable nut in the hole. Asking £60 delivered.
