Timely prompt from the DVLA reminds me that its decision time on my Omega. Part of me would like to hang on to it as a hobby/workhorse but as I can't weld and no longer have the enthusiasm or the need for a second car she sadly has to go.
Offering it to the helpful Omega community first but interested parties will need to be quick as tax expires at the end of the month and offroad parking is not an option.
Must be worth £275 for parts and Cats alone.
