there's a bunch of reasons why i shouldnt buy it and a bunch of reasons why i should!!

pros: I really want it, i miss my old one, its exactly the spec i want (same as my blue one!) its a very good price

cons: i've only had the bora 3 months, its much MUCH cheaper to run, its in unreal condition for its 10 years, i've not long since bought a house and should be watching the cash, even though i bought a ps3 and a new mountain bike, and also, i told swmbo she couldnt have a cat!!

Now if your misses was as bad as mine she would reply "If i'm not getting a pussy neither are you"

the one i get is cheaper and easier to maintain, believe it or not!!

Just out of interest mate cos you have a "Bora shaped Jetta".......

Does that mean I am allowed an Omega shaped Insignia.......??

 

In the US, all the "golf saloons" right through 1974-2009 were badged as Jetta, no ventos and no boras, just as the golfs were known as a rabbit, so wanting to be a tad different i decided to get a Jetta badge from the states to replace the Bora badge, your equivalent would be a Caddy Catera

When someone says Jetta though i think of the horrible 1980s ones......Bora brings up images of Maseratis to me........

No worries

sorry to bump the ad, but it seems daft starting a new thread - car has done 95k miles, mot til 22 July 2010, taxed til end of January 2010 - breaks my heart but she's gotta go, no space and i've bought a laguna diesel estate (i know ) 

advertising locally at £1500 - but no sensible offer refused as they say

Hi all,

I have been looking for an Omega for a while but struggling to find one locally, off to see this car tomorrow having seen it on Autotrader.

Bannjaxx let slip about this forum, and having seen the exact car I was looking at, I just had to add a comment.

£1250?? Shot yourself in the foot there mate!!!

Anyway, everything sorted for tomorrow morning, still be around 9'ish but will give you an update en-route.

If your old lady was as bad as mine, she'd go out, get the pussy, bring it back, let you watch (the first round), then let you play as well

thats it sold - i'm now Omega-less 

on the plus side new member vxlnut came all the way down from Orkney (10hours on a boat before you get to Aberdeen - then a 2hr drive to Perth!!) to buy it and i hope he's happy - glad to know she'll be in good hands as you clearly know your stuff m8

nice meeting you Steve and the lovely Lucy - safe trip home

Hi Dave,

Car drove faultlessly to Aberdeen, very pleased.  Arrived back in Orkney now and I think I may have got myself a bit of a bargain. 

Good luck with your Laguna (book of electrical fault codes on the way for christmas) and good luck with your new venture.  It was very nice to meet you.
