I know there is more chance of Halewood building Chinese drone kits than something sensible happening, but given his recent penchant for disrupting mineral rich Third World dictatorships/ offering to strengthen US peripheral defences by 'acquisition'/liberating Islamic State strongholds... Perhaps Donald would consider UK as a suitable prospect...Was reading that some retired high ranking service personnel were saying that the Army has been slimmed down so far, they would be hard pressed to capture anywhere larger that a small market town. |

Apparently there's loads of gas under Lincolnshire.
 Lord Opti should start drilling his back garden!   |

Mineral rich? No. Everything else, yes.Plenty of oil and gas under the North Sea. And plenty of coal under the land too. They only stopped digging for it because the NUM made it cheaper to import it. |

Welcome to the forum
You have a lovely car, but I'd change that cam belt pronto. |

After all we meet all three of those criteria  And as the bulk of our servicable forces are currently deployed in the Middle East, he wouldn't actually need to bomb anything. |

Thanks for allowing me to join. I don’t currently have an Omega, but I did once have a diesel estate, however I now have a Saab 95 Griffin estate, which uses the Omega 3 litre V6 with a low pressure turbo. It’s a lovely engine, but I’ve heard it’s a bit fragile. Mines 2001, just under 60000 miles.
The cam belt etc was changed at 43,000 miles, but that was about 8 years ago. Saabs like mine are quite rare now, there are only about 7 Griffins still on the road, and I’d like to keep mine as long as possible, hence the request to join🙂 |

It's another RRS , I wasn't fussy on either model but was particular regarding service history & mileage paid my indi to travel over & inspect this one " you won't find a better one" were his words the seller took mine in part payment which was handy so did the deal yesterday, going in next week for a thorough health check, but I'm not expecting any issues, it's very fast compared to the TDV8 which wasn't a slouch by any means.👍 The British built (Welsh, I think)5.0 SC V8 is one of the great engines. These were fitted to both of my XFR 5.0SC......the second one was remapped and put out about 600BHP  Good choice. |
