Crikey! I'm sure you've missed out half of them too. ;D

That LPG conversion seems a while ago now. :-\

Do keep in touch, and all the best!

Very impressive James, how many Omegas have you owned? No need to disappear, as said, not many of us have Omegas now, I sold my last one a few months ago due to not being used enough.
Thanks for the help you gave me in the past.

No need to feel you can't pop you face back in hear regularly.  Lets face it, I'm the only Admin/Mod still with an Omega - and that will be going once it runs out of fuel.

As to your comment of looking young, do you not look like that any more? :D

The end of an era indeed, James. It has been a privilege and an honour  to have known such a thoroughly good bloke and I thank you for all the help you have given me.
I too have to give up on Omegas, and indeed all driving, I fear, due to terminal kidney failure and poor eyesight, together with the fact that my Omega failed its MOT last September and is now SORNed. I won’t actually get rid of It until I get a final verdict regarding my eyes as it is my only form of mobility after breaking my hipbone!
Please take care and stay safe – and don’t leave the Forum!

Yes, what a history and portfolio of cars James :y :y

I am sad though you are thinking of leaving.  You will be missed, and I agree with the  previous posts, you do not have to leave just because you do not have an Omega.  Most members now do not have one!

But, if you do leave, all the very best! :-* :-* ;)

Leave and go where, there's no other forum, that will give you, Help, and advice then abuse anywhere on the tinternet,  you won't find a raging Dr Opti, who has a high regard for all things female, on a free site, The Extremist views of our glorious leader,would be banned,and regarded as a hate Crime,and the ongoing love in between Dr Dg and miss Zoom,would be classed as stalking, That dam wurzel pestering everyone about white goods, and his conquest in Asia (it was a bloke), you don't get life's rich tapestry in one place, anywhere else on the tinternet.. :D

Wish I had half your mechanical talent ! Certainly no need to leave not many of us on here still run Omegas but at least we can still talk about them.

I went to see James in Beaconsfield a few years ago for him to change my cambelt, which was a 300 mile round trip and a good day out!  :y

We did it in a parking space on Beaconsfield High Street outside a posh wine and cigar shop and the proprietor kept looking out the window and didn't look too impressed at two blokes stripping down an old car in the rain outside his shop!  ;D

It was well worth the trip though as James determined that my cambelt was a tooth or two out and it was like driving a different car on the way home.  Watching him at work also gave me the confidence to change the head gaskets when the nearside one started leaking.  :)

Cheers James!   :y

We joined about the same time. I regret we never met. Looking at your photos brought back many memories. I nearly bought one of your cars but for a lack of vital air con. I remember doing my cam belt change armed only with the OOF dvd and of course the forum. Tense time on our only car.

Don’t be a stranger in the years to come.
