General Car Chat / My family's first Omega from 1999

« on: 08 December 2013, 19:45:44 »

This is a photo of my dads Omega from 1999 I think.
It's a 2.0l auto and I loved it. Since then we've never had another (bearing in mind I was probably about 6-7 years old at the time. However, my good friend Webby-The-Bear took me for a drive to Morrisons not too long ago in his 2.5 auto saloon and it re-ignited the love I always ha for them. Anyone else had this experience of a first love for a car or a re-ignited love?

Am I the only person who is seeing no change in how F1 cars look in the last 16 years?

Fair do's mate.
Can you not sacrifice frontal space and bring it forward to save them.

(It was resting on the brake lines almost at one point, wasn't it?)

What car's the diff' coming from? I'd presume something big, GM and fast?
And I'm guessing the engine's still loose in situ'?

Understandable, CG. I think the Audi V8 had quite an acute block separation. However, I'll shut up about that and stop hijacking your glorious post!

Any new pictures available of the whole thing?

Happy spanners.

Yes, Steve! Last time I was in an Omega was in the early 2000's. In a W reg 2.2 4cyl estate in green. Will look for the photo later.

Hey guys, new to the Forum. My Friend, Webby-The-Bear showed me the thread after I told him I wouldn't mind doing an Audi 4.2 V8FSI swap into an omega. Have to say, CG, good doing so far! Andwering most of the queries and questions I had regarding the matter. Hope all is going well for you.

P.S - How're thyings looking on the ECU/management side of things?

Happy spanners guys!
