must have taken the designer a long time to come up with those sleek body lines  ;D

I guess you could fill it with Domestos and spray the Covidiots with it  :D

How about something a little unusual:

Super Soaker

Looks like something off a mad Max set ;D

" inside the body is a Coventry Climax petrol engine...."worth a look to see if that is one of the fabled water pump engines that was actually a grand prix engine!  Coventry Climax famously used government money to develop their "water pump" engines during the end of WWII, knowing that a light engine for racing cars would be needed once war was over.  You never know...

Dont like the colour, bit it seems to be a bargain, so.......

Looks smart   ;)

Also, February, in the middle of such global uncertainty is probably just about the best time to buy a soft top weekend toy.  :y

Year 2000. 2.7. 97k miles.
Very little history. Roof doesnt quite work right, but new parts to fix it included. Has Jinyu tyres fitted ! Coming all the way from Consett.

But £1900  :) ;)

If I decide to keep it, the Omega might be up for sale................at a price that no-one is likely to pay.  ;D
Very difficult to justify 3 cars you see. ::)
