Ikea is also worth a look for cots etc....ro try second hand, normaly plenty of stuff in the local paper.

Just remember that certain items only get used for a matter of weeks i.e. Moses Baskets (the single most pointless thing we bought!)

I sometimes drive the Omega quite hard and the manual is much more controllable through the corners as you can lift to gain a little engine breaking and the dam think doesn't change up.

I can get drive the 2.5 faster through corners than the 3.0 estate which has sports suspension and a bigger engine!

What happens when in sports mode or you use the shift to make it hold a gear......can you throw it round corners faster then?

Neither mode truely locks the gear so no....

I must admit that on the manual I use 3-2-1 quite a bit to gain the economy of engine breaking and ECU overrun.

It will take a while to get them all done, MAF sensor is the next one on the list....

It should also help to explain why oiled cone filters etc can damage the maf
