General Car Chat / Re: Despite my doubts I made the 250 mile round trip.
« on: 12 August 2017, 12:49:38 »You do realise that you are talking about a car that is up for sale at £39,995I agree that is not a lot to show for £14000.
......actually it was £14995 plus my car. £24000 for mine and a paltry £1000 off the new car.
Only done 10,000 miles from new being his mantra.
Makes yours a bit of a bargain I think.
That's not a lot for £14k cash.
Try telling that to the first owner, who paid over £25k for the first 24months and 10k Miles of ownership
Very true!
Big cats are a great buy....... second hand!

« on: 12 August 2017, 12:47:30 »......and another thing.Quite an achievement considering you can't even put a full postcode in it
The trip over there highlighted just how utterly piss poor Jaguar Sat Nav is.
The system in the mighty Signum is far superior.

Omega General Help / Re: Internal fuse cover
« on: 12 August 2017, 12:01:59 »He could try removing the ecu firstJust plug it in then hold the cover up till you get in the seat then let the cover rest on your leg.No wonder you crash...
Open the cover and allow to drop down. Then grab the sides next to the hinges and tug firmly towards the steering wheel. Should simply pop off. If it still has the strap attached, this can easily be removed with the cover detached
hmm, i'm sure i had to push the pins out first as well. still if you follows dg's recommendation you won't have to worry about pushing them out. ever again.

« on: 12 August 2017, 11:59:47 »Op hasn't triedWhat difference does it make if its resting, the clutch can still be pressedIt's stupid advice when it can readily be removed.
and what does something that happened 10years ago have to do with a fusebox
Its an option, Op cant remove the cover
What about holding the cover closed with black nasty?

Not surprised there was snow at that altitude 
It regularly snows over the Sahara, but it almost never reaches the ground, let alone settle

General Car Chat / Re: stripping an omega in a morning
« on: 11 August 2017, 16:20:41 »would the units fit my Pf/l?Yes.
can it be wired to suit?
But you need the bonnet, bumper, crash bar and clips etc... The looms to the headlights would also be prudent.
You might get away with the loom tails and trimming your grill frame. Only the inner corners are a different shape.
No, the headlights won't fit. Well they probably would actually, but get smashed when you close the bonnet!Utter rubbish.
