Title: Omega slipping away
Post by: omega3000 on 09 January 2013, 19:31:03
As much as i want to save her the omega is making more annoying sounds , if i turn the radio up much more ill be deaf  ::) Wondering if i should cash the tax in , get scrap money for the car and add a bit of cash then buy something else  :-\ Plenty of runabouts around that will get me to the shops and back , just seems im not wanting to give the car up even though it makes sense to do so . The film "CHRISTINE" springs to mind  :-X

Cheaper here to go 1.0 and below for tax reasons cem , not worried about power just something to do a few miles a day will be enough  ;)

I treated Mrs Opti to a 53 plate 1.2 Corsa SXI last year (She hated the RX8).

Great little car :-\.....45 MPG.....110 MPH (indicated) and only £103 to insure and £125 to tax

17,000 miles when she had it  (now 22,000)

Cost £1200. :y

Cheap motoring, although I've just shelled out on a new battery.
