Nice brace of Omega you have there, Mr Jimbob. I trust they are both equipped with parking sensors to aid "the lady driver". Nobody wants a trip to the body shop. :)

I think the silver is quite common but what sets a silver one apart from the rest is the irmcher bodykit and snowflake alloys imo , just like the one in a recent post in the gallery  :y

The blue one has been a forum regular, belonging previously to 2 other forum members.  I know Ljay was prepared to go to any length, death included, to be first in the queue when bob.dent sold it :)

Is a very unusual car - colour with the Irmscher kit.

Great to see another two migs getting some love! Are the interiors as mint now too?!

OMFG blue is nice

Believe me, when you've owned a gold one, silver is a cleanliness you can only dream of! With that said there is an amazing blue MIG I've seen around locally that isn't this blue! (or it might have been similar, but it wasn't as clean!)

Both beautiful cars in gorgeous colours - I'm not a fan of silver either I'm afraid - purely on a cleaning satisfaction' scale tbh.
Great photos too.
I think it's fantastic now that as these cars are starting to become more sought after by people that actually care about them, it's highly likely that this forum has a network of people that probably know or have seen the vehicles previously - especially when they get as special as these and a few others on here. Maybe we need to work on a club salute for fellow members  ::) ;D ;D
