There's a place on Avon St in Bristol that caters for just Vauxhalls - All-Vaux - not sure what they have for Omegas though...

 


been there not that good really. best place I can think of at the moment near Bristol is out along the A38 almost up to Gloucester, cant remember what it's called though. There is also one along the A380 just past congresbury, again cant think of the name.

I do remember when there were about 6 of them all next to each other, all got compulserary purchesed to put the damn ring road in.

Went past the one at Congsbury the other day - looked like it was shut.  I remember well the row of scrappies off of Avon street that got replaced by the flyover. Deadly but great.  Aparently All-Vaux in avon street doesn't do much in the way of Omegas.

This one up near Gloucester could be usefull - any further details?

Did find one about a year back off of M5 J11 on the road to Staverton.  No double/tripple stackers but only 1 omega there

Around Gloucester there are a few, Twigworth on he A38 north, Bucklands near Cheltenham and Cleeve - not sure where but they are big.

Twigworth break a car and keep bits long enough for cars to become classics

Yate Car Breakers have a few Omegas in. Mostly 2.0 saloons.

Banwell car breakers (15 miles South of Bristol) have a couple of tatty 2.5 saloons.

There are quite a few breakers around Bristol but most don't keep Omegas for long. They come in, get the major parts stripped, then are crushed. I chased quite a few trying to get cruise parts for mine.
