Some years ago I appeared on the cover of Straight Six News with 4 Senators. Here I pose with 8 Omegas. The uniqiue gathering was created by a need to exchange cars for MOTs and repair, plus 2 sick cars awaiting disposal (rear shock mounting and HGF) lurking under the apple tree. OE03EWW and R706FHD I have owned for 10 years, I bought Y342WVY in May and V828KOV last Saturday.

Thanks for interest. This 6 car shot shows the 2 disposal cars on the lawn more clearly, and more of the 2 PFL blue estates. R706FHD was registered July1998 and V828KOV January 2000. I expected a MFL car when I bought V828KOV last Saturday, like the silver V reg 2000 Opel Omega on the lawn here.

Squirrels love it too. They run up and down it, then nest in my roof.

Terry, do you have a favourite of your fleet?

Terry, do you have a favourite of your fleet?
I prefer the V6s to the inline fours. I have acquired a taste for the CDX top of the range models. I like working aircon, but am too mean to have it repaired professionally, so when it fails I leave it failed. I love the 12CD random track operation JVR radio. No car has all these features, though the 2.6 CDX saloon I bought for my daughter in May Y342WVV has working aircon, so comes closest. I normally drive X168JAT, a CDX with the JVC radio, or OE03 EWW the ex-police 3.2 manual, fastest, with the JVC radio and working aircon. My favourite - X168JAT.
