Cheers guys,
The car was a absolute dog when I got it but the interior was as pristine as can be.
Lost count of money ive spent on it in the last 3 years but hey, its worth every penny.
does not go far and is under cover in the winter and is mainly only used for shows during the year!

 Ah, I'm torn between being jealous that you can keep the car pristine... and fighting my corner of "drive it everyday, and keep it clean in between times". Much respect for getting it like that, but half the appeal for me of having an immaculate car is to go out in it and show it off to the world... :y

I notice you have front mudflaps and MV6 wheels, do the front tyres catch the mud flaps?

No not at all.
The only problem I have is that the suspension is too soggy.

I used to have an omega that colour. it was a 2 litre select tho so the colour was probably it's best thing! thought i'd add my appreciation of your hard work, i only hope my current elite can get half as good as yours! which would be helped, if you're still thinking of selling it, by a glorious irmscher back box! I'm very interested! :)
Cheers,Dave.

i did wonder tho, for curiosities sake, why the facelift additions like bumper and side strips? :-/

I chose to fit the facelift items because I like the shape of the front end of the prefacelift to the facelift.

Bloody hell! That's seriously clean! Gorgeous colour also! I think on this occasion the stealers did good!  ;D  ::)

Rear bumper looks lovely  :y And I think that just about all elites are auto. MV6 tended to be the model specced for manual/sports.
