That is a nice looking Audi.!!

Best thing to do with that rusting Omega is have a touring holiday this summer and drive(one way) to southern Spain. Have a few beers at my gaffe, bit of sun, BBQ etc. Then I will drive you to the airport.

No need to worry then what to do with the car.

Are you paying ALL his exspences. ::)

No of course not, but equally wouldn't be charging either.

My aim would be to acquire a stock of old Omegas(any of the Boys cars for example) and then organise "workshops" to fault find (could start with mine), fix and share expertise. What better way for Omega Barons to top up their expertise, sun tan and beer belly?

I bet there wouldn't be many other car forums with such a centre of excellence based in the sun.

pool, bar, tools except for welding kit.

It could be up and running as soon as the classroom material arrives. Ideally minifacelift Elites but really any would do including Diesels (even).

In the meantime please generously click www.makeadonationtoVarche.com. You never know one day you might need help!

Sounds like a plan, buy poorly Elites, then charge people to do an Elite Reair Workshop (ERW) and let them fault find and fix.

Will you be doing bodyshop repairs aswell.  Then I could have a drive over, you make some money from teaching others and I get my Elite bumbers removed and refitted and some little dinks and scratches filled and sorted at some poor sods the ERW   :y :y

No you have misread the plan. I won't be buying any Omegas. They will be donated. No one will be charged to do an ORW (though that sounds tempting).

If there is a problem with an Omega then someone on the forum will be able to fix it(or learn to fix it at the academy) and then pass on that knowledge to other forum members. So I guess it might include bodywork.

PS Mr S have you clicked and made your donation yet please?
