Appreciation
« on: 26 April 2015, 12:54:45 »

When I was waiting to pick up the Elite from its MOT at my local VX the other day, I was chatting to the, retired, salesman who I have known for years, and who comes in to help occasionally. When I mentioned that my Omega was in the workshop, he asked if he could go and sit in it. " I just loved driving those." he said. :) :) :)

Yeh, the two dealers I use for parts often speak highly of the Omega.

I struggle to find cars I like from the current models of all manufacturers, I find myself looking at Retrorides forum more and more!!!
