Whatever the list of differences, the Elite is a much nicer car to drive than a CD spec version. Plus, the 3.2 is considerably more impressive than the 2.6.

You best keep hold of it then ,sounds nice

For sale thread to follow.

His little red French TRACTOR   

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Doubtful. As Ive mentioned before - I plan on (hopefully) buying another car this year. Given that swmbo already moans about me having two cars, she will not be at all happy about three.
I love my old Omega and dont want to part with it, so I will put it up for sale for £1000. If it doesnt sell, it wont be my fault. 

The little red F****h tractor is a necessary evil for commuting. As long as it keeps running, it will be staying.

The 2.6 is probably the worse of all Omega engines.  The best is the 3.0l

Agreed. 

[Doctor Gollum]

The 2.6 isn't that bad, but you only need to back it off the drive to know that it's no 3.2.

Someone might be able to come and drive mine away tomorrow. I dont think I will last until then tbh.
Swmbo got the Joe Wicks phone app for a Christmas present and has roped me into doing the exercises with her.
I sit here breathless, sweaty and knackered. Also now walking 1.5 to 2 miles a day across the fields.
I need to get back to sitting on my arse at work for 99 hours a week, like I was a couple of years ago. It was much less tiring.

Exercise does you good
until it doesn't 
get a phone signal blocker 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

That sounds like a plan. 
Tbh it feels like its either really doing me good, or constantly bringing me to the edge of my first heart attack. Time will tell. 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Now time for steak & chips, stewed rhubarb & custard, plus beer. Which will render the exercise a waste of fickin time.

It's doing you good. Every day, when walking the dog, I find a hill. The steepest hill I can find wherever I am. I then walk up it very quickly. If it's a long hill, my heart tries to escape my chest and my legs turn to jelly. But it is good for me, I know that by the shape of other male dog walkers of my age. Half of them are fickin big fat things and the others look like death warmed up.

I used to run (jog) up them, but one day I was really sure I was going to die

One day you'll be right. Which will be a nice, although brief, experience for you

Like the man said..moderation in all things. Walking quite quickly will suffice for an old codger like me.
When I thought I might die, I was worried about what would happen to my dog. Would someone get her home...or would she be left wandering around, lost. That's when I decided not to jog any more. Poor doggie.
