Title: Its a funny old world.
Post by: goonv6 on 23 January 2010, 21:24:10

I'm still umming and ahhing about selling the miggy so I've been thinking about the things I like/ don't like about it. One of the worst is the poxy wooden trims. I remembered that Folia Tec did a heat based film that can be used to cover trim so I looked on the bay and sure enough, someone was selling some locally. I bid and won and then emailed to askif I collect. She phoned me and during our chat, she told me that they had bought it to cover the fake wood trim on their Omega Estate! I bowled over there and sure enough, they had one of the nicest 02 plate estates in silver I have ever seen. Its a 2.6 and has only done 45k since new! Her husband is disabled and the Miggy is oneof the few cars he can get in and out of. I asked her to keep in touch as I said I knew a few dodgy old blokes on an iffy website that would more than likely be willing to help out if any problems came up with her car.  :y

One reason I prefer my MV6 - silver painted trim looks exactly like erm, silver painted trim!

I had the opportunity to but the complere trim from an MV6 for £30. This is a darker smoke colour and lets just say I got it for a VERY good price. Welung, she did say to me that Ilooked too young to drive an Omega... ;D ;D ;D
