Mrs.Loo-knee's Rangey needs some attention (won't start, I know Mark what you said about them ;D) so she has been driving my new baby the last few days :(
Now she text me last night at work with an idea she had come up with :o
"Lets sell the Rangey as with you now being on nights we don't need two cars, then you could get a towbar on the back of our Omega to tow the caravan".
Great idea!!!!
But I don't want a towbar on ::) and i don't want you drivin my Meega "I thought" not brave enough to tell her come on!!!!!
So any good ideas on how I keep Mrs. Loo-knee out of my Baby and back into her Rangey??????
Please Help
Loo-knee :-[ :y

Someone tell Mrs Loo-knee that V6 Omegas are VERY good tow cars ;D

What you need is an easily repaired break down on a very wet and windy night when the wife is driving ::). If you do it on a night you are off tell her to lock herself in the car and then take your time getting to her ;)
One thing though dont tell her it was my idea :o

Selling my Wife isn't an option sorry lads can't afford :D,
she didn't moan a bit when i was at the Cambelt Party all day and night ;D
Did think about getting another Omega though...... ;)
Think i may have to give way and get and get a towbar that comes off :(
Mrs. Loo-knee says after getting back from shopping today "she goes well 80 no probs" ::)
:y :y
-
Fix the rangey ? ;) ;)
-
Hang on, 'tow the caravan'?
You should both be shot.
-
burn the caravan... suggests Jamie ;D
-
I love my knee basher, when stupid Cav GSI drivers rear end you at a roundabout it completely obliterates the front grille and bursts the radiator too ;D Damage to your car - slight scratch ;)
-
Sell the caravan and buy a trailer for the meega, and a tent, that way when u go on hols you can take the meega along and save on petrol...or better still get rid of the rangey and use that as an excuse to get a facelift elite, and give her your meega. :y
-
Tell her the caravan is too heavy to tow behind the Omega. Although the engine wont have any problems you can only have 85% ratio. So she needs to keep the heavy Rangey or sell the caravan too - eliminating the need for your MV6. It's a lie but what the hell :y With the caravan gone and the Rangey gone offer her a 1.0 Corsa 12v as a cheap replacement, if running costs are an issue to her ;)
-
I think you can legally go to 100% which is about 1.8 ton
-
Burn the caravan.....then check for a spark on the Rangie.....when there isnt one change the dam stupid ignition module in the dizzy....

Give the Caravan to Richard Hammond , give the Rangey to Clarkson. Video the results.
from the profits, buy a Meega Elite estate with shin bashing attachment , a car trailer and a large tent.
then she can tow your MV6 on the trailer, and you can camp out all ocsy like, with separate transport in case of emergency or headache.
you can sell her on the deal as the elite is theoretically a "better " model than the Mv6 so she has , in her eyes at least, a nicer car than you....
and can tow, and can do better MPG than Rangey, and , oh all sorts of other handy argument things.

Modern barn find (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=020&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=300086130463&rd=1&rd=1)
I know the price is kinda pants, but it otherwise ticks a few boxes.....
2.5TD
Removeable single electrics towbar
Elite spec
23700 miles from new with FSH
2 owners from new
Downsides?
Price
Auto
might be worth a 'phonecall and a wee negotiate???

Welcome Mrs Loo-knee :)
I'm biased towards Rangey's, I like them. Bit unreliable at times though :(

I like the 56 plate one a few doors up the road....it looks good in black... :D
But it does sound like its using a gallon of petrol just to pull out of the parking space and get to the and of the road ;D
