Swapped the steering wheel in the black car back to a standard one so I can refurbish the Irmscher one.

Was one out of my stockpile of bits. A few years old but got to try it out.

Just done the HBV on the black car, I'd forgotten what a joyful and inspiring job it is 
. Brand new genuine HBV out of a sealed GM labelled bag.... but who knows if it'll last as long as I seem to recall that the last genuine ones weren't great.... Fingers crossed!

« on: 21 June 2024, 10:16:59 »Very rarely use satnav, don't go to many places that I've never been before, had our 20 year old grandson on a trip out with us a few weeks ago & he just couldn't understand why I didn't need satnav at all.It's not so much for the guidance, as, like many i've spent all my driving life driving around the Country for work, it's more for the traffic / road information / speed limit functions that I find useful

« on: 20 June 2024, 22:37:05 »I was impressed with how the accuracy of the navigation system is with the GPS antenna disconnected. Over 30 miles driven, and its still cock-onMust admit, in a World that's obsessed with using their phones for navigation I thought I was alone in still using the built in Nav's on our cars!

General Car Chat / Re: Budget Tyres
« on: 18 June 2024, 21:24:35 »Well I had two Runway Enduro Sports fitted to the rear of the Mondeo this afternoon costing a grand total of £164.28.
I didn't slide into the ditch on the way home either.
Hmmm, need to get front tyres for the V70. Don't know if I should go for Rainsport 5's as per the rear or something else
My V70 has Rainsports on the rear and are survivors of the full set I put on it a few years ago and Sailun Atrezzos on the front when I wasn't feeling so flush when the fronts needed replacing a couple of years ago.
Pair of Rainsports ordered. Fit on Friday.

Nor sure what the speakers are rated to but I think the amplifier is specced up to 210 Watts

Nice job. Getting rare to see this much effort being afforded on an Omega nowadays. I'm just trying to keep my two (may sell one) in good roadworthy condition because, despite having a 530D as a daily and a V70 dog wagon, there's just something about an Omega as mentioned in an earlier reply.
