[I_want_an_Omega]

Hi,

I popped out earlier in SWMBO's Focus and it dawned on me that although this popular little Ford has it as standard, it isn't on the Omega, although can't speak for the Facelift cars. I know the Omega isn't a new car, but the Focus hails back to '98, so is only a slightly newer design than the Omega.

Has anyone ever done it, and if so would they share how please.

Thanks

The mig's don't have them because they are GAY

Why do you need to see your feet when you're driving anyway?

[size=14]LOL ..............  [/size]

Actually, they only come on with the interior light  - you know the one in the Mig which lights up in a manly way when you get into and out of the car.

LEDs are so cheap I think I might have a play ........

AHHH! The "L" word points to GAY too

Footwell lighting is for 17yrs olds and their Saxos. And is gay.

Most Omegas have puddle lights in the door.

My old 51 plate Focus heap of junk - probably the worse car I've ever owned - never had footwell lighting.  That said, its interior light was pretty naff as well.

They're not gay....they are so you can see if one of your beer cans has rold under the break pedal

[I_want_an_Omega]

Ok chaps, lets see how the logic works here ...

I'm assuming that if footwell lights are gay then, by association, any car having them is also gay and to be avoided?

That means as almost all cars as future potential replacements to Omgeas must be excluded and anyone on the forum, at least who isn't gay, can never own anything other than an Omega?

This means that Omega's will soldier on forever . 

As a matter of interest, can anyone advise of a car that isn't gay. I'm struggling to think of anything as they all have footlights now.

I'll chuck a couple of suggestions (footlights aside) and await the torrent of abuse that will no doubt follow:

BMW E46 330d
Mondeo Mk 4, 2.5T
Audi A4, 3.0 Tdi

Duck .......

I'd be OK with 2 after I'd disconnected the footwell lights but you can stick the Mundaineo anywhere that pleases you

[I_want_an_Omega]

I'm glad that a couple of the choices were acceptable.

Have you driven the Mondeo 2.5T petrol?

[Welung666]

I've not done petrol cars since I sold my elite estate. Probably won't again either, Just not a fan of the new look-a-like ford range. They're all plastic fantastic and look cheap.

[I_want_an_Omega]

I can see that.

I had a Mondy 3 ST TDCi 2.2, which was a great car in all but 2 respects, firstly, it was very very noisy to ride in, secondly, the engine altough pulling well, was prone to start suffering strange things @ random from about 60k onwards. I was lucky in that I had mine from new - but it spent a lot of time gettng sorted under warranty towards the end of my ownership & I'd be really nervous about getting one a few years down the road when all £££ would be mine.

BMW E46 330d   GAY, beemer. 'Nuf said
Mondeo Mk 4, 2.5T  Std Mundanos are OK, others are chavved, thus GAY
Audi A4, 3.0 Tdi  Not quite reached beemer's level of GAYness

[PhilRich]

Is it just me being 'sensitive', or do I detect a teeeeny hint of anti GAY sentiment in this thread? 

[I_want_an_Omega]

So, ALL beemers are gay, and Audi is going that way?

Whats the spriritual successor to the Omega then when its time has come?

Its an interesting point as having had my first company one new in '94 (one of the famous L reg "purple" pre-production V6 CD saloons) and then into an Elite, all support was via the dealership. Going in to private ownership in 2000 to a '97 MV6 there was very little support via the Autobahnstormers. Now its great, the cars are cheap and this place gives such fantastic help & support. BUT, the last car coming out of Russelsheim in 2003, so I suspect that the Omega "world" is at its zenith at the moment - asking the question, "whats next" to many people.

I think that the real answer is that not all Mig owners will get the same car next ............
