Well, back to the meega's :)
« on: 16 March 2009, 11:34:45 »
After seeing her in the Autotrader for under a grand, i thought i would go and get her. 2.5 auto CD, 71k on the clock, fsh, mot 12 months and tax 6 months, no mods done at all (well, i did debadge the rear lol)
Had to wait for over 4 hours whilst they finished off the repair work (couple of deep key marks), then for the mot which passed wth no problems and then wait for the tax.
Got a bit pissed off with the garage as they had run it down to 0 miles range. They put a fiver in to get to the mot, however, didnt register on the comp so reckon i have picked up some crud from the bottom of the tank as she was chugging on the way to fill her up.
Anyway, ill let the pics do the talking (some of you know me as blotto_otto on vxon, not been back to rwd for a while and regret it a lot lol)

Nice motor.
Get yourself to Vauxhall for a pair of clear side repeaters, especially on a silver / light colour car, they are(were) about £7- for the pair!  :y  :y  :y

Done that on all my previous omegas so its on my small list of to do's lol. 3L cams, slight wndow tint, passenger side temp display is not lit, different exhaust as imho, this one sits too far in even though there is a nice recess in the bumper ;)
Thanks for all the nice replies peeps :)

A nice clean example at a price not to be missed, i still say its lots of car for little money and they are worth every penny.

Started cleaning the seats now with halfords upholstery cleaner, not too bad a job really. Next job is sorting the surface scratches with some various autoglym products and go from there really :)
