Omega Gallery / My '95 3.0 Elite wagon
« on: 05 April 2007, 19:27:00 »
Just the one photo today, as I cleaned the old girl as she has sat since ClarCE did the cam cover gaskets a couple of weeks back.



I will take some more pics of the interior etc if people are interested.

Basic info: January '95 so an early one, 3.0 with a 5 speed, black leather.  126k miles up.  The photo flatters the condition (ClarCE can confirm!) - a few knocks here and there, rust creeping in on the bottom of the doors and the usual windowledges, needs a new driver's door moulding which may (or may not) be here shortly (some eBay sellers...).  A few faults like broken check strap on the driver's door, central locking dead, and it is still leaking a little oil from somewhere...

...but it drives well, goes a bit as it's a manual, all the heated seats (and both headlamp washers) work and has already made itself an invaluable member of my motoring menagerie due to it's usefulness.  It will be carting garden rubble to the tip all weekend... ;D

30th sounds good to me.

I'd be up for this too!

A scarily accurate summary of events!

It wasn't broken down, it was just 'resting'.  Ian looks deranged!  ;D

Better put a note in my diary to drive the Omega next Thursday then, or we'll have two non-Omega diesels there  ::)

Could do, got to crack on with fitting/painting the Cavalier wing really - weekday might be better for me.

Looks like it might be just you and me Ian  ;D

Ian - going to have to cancel, as I now need to get my Granada to the 'fettling man' - it's taken 3 months to set this up, so I will have to pass on a Max fry-up for now.  Count me in if there's a reschedule though.

Sounds good to me Ian, just waiting to hear from Chris to see if he wants to go in convoy, otherwise I will see you there!

I am up to six cars at the moment, although the Saab is a company car, the Granada is a running resto, and my Mazda 323 is being loaned to someone else.  The rest are Vauxhalls!  Although the Mk3 Cav nearly was no more earlier, as the rocker gasket went in spectacular fashion and dripped hot oil onto the manifold - lots of smoke and a couple of tiny flames  :o

Guess I'll be off to my local dealer on Tuesday for a new one, then  ::)
