Vauxhall and Opel Omega Appreciation Society
« on: 05 August 2015, 10:23:32 »
Are there many members who are members on the titled Facebook group. Reading some of the posts, it seems a lot of people have not heard of us. I know a few who are.
They seem to post up some pics of really smart cars. I get the impression that we are more 'status quo' whilst a lot of their members have the 'flashy' jobs

Might be a generational thing . Not all old gits are on Titter or Ar$ebook.

Made the group a few years ago it's only been recently there's been an uprising in requests to join on average 2 a day with over 600 members currently, Would imagine a large amount have stumbled across OOF  :-\

Did not know if it was worth mentioning the OOF meet at Wycombe in October. Might be able to get some new members for here :y

Feel free, Sure there'd be a few regulars that don't appear to be on here that would attend  :y

They should know about us bearing in mind the omega was the only decent car Vauxhall made over the past 20 odd years!

That's correct, TB....
We have got a good venue, and I don't want to risk losing it. As you say, the burnout brigade would not be welcome. :y

Generally they tend to be as the group name suggests. They Apreciate the Omega, I know of a few other pages/groups that have a more 'Irish' following when it comes to drifting etc... It's not the sort of thing we encourage on this group though mind, Nevertheless a few bad apples are bound to find their way in.
