Title: New Omega owner (briefly!)
Post by: MAMV6 on 15 April 2021, 09:29:38

Hello all,

Just wanted to say "Hi" and what a great forum this is.

Took ownership of my my 2002 MV6 2.6 V6 just a week ago.

I'm very much not a mechanic or useful at fixing cars at all, but have changed the bulbs in the puddle lights (a couple were blown), changed the pollen filter and was looking forward to checking and cleaning the drainage channels - all off the back of reading the fabulous guides on this forum.

Exactly one week in and she has been written off in a car park by an errant driver reversing their tow ball into the front drivers side wing and door. Twice.

Awaiting to hear on what the insurance company will offer, but hoping to retain car and fix her back up.

I know words mean nothing and pictures are everything on a forum, so will try and get a picture up of her in all her glory once I work out how.

Now to go and ask in the parts wanted thread if anyone has a front r/h wing going spare.
