Hello Malc , Don here from the old Manta days ........
Nice to see your still driving the Omegas , are all the white ones gone  ?
 :y

Mr Mavor, is that you?? :)

I still have the TVP armed response white estate, 152k miles and still going strong. Fitted her out with black leather a month or so back so I'm intending to keep her running for a few more miles yet!

Soon be 13 years of driving Omegas - no idea what I'll move on to next... I still think the Omega (saloon or estate) is a damn handsome car!

There's a grey ex-TVP one on Ebay at the moment. Was tempted, but my neighbours would think I've had a bump on the head, having two identical cars...

Why would they change the Reg Josh?

A few of them wore 'ghost' plates to disguise them;
For example my black 3.2 used to be GM03 HYU and the blue Vectra seen on there that wore LW05 AET is actually OU05 EN*
KF52 NDX was another ghost reg for an Omega. They reverted back to the STD registration assigned to them when they were new either later in service, or when disposed of.
Yours always wore it's original registration, I've got a copy of it's service history and now a little about its life now. I'll stick it in the post to you  :y

The other is OV03 LHY which is a white estate.


Greetings - Newbie here! Just spotted this thread and had a read... I used to drive LHY when i was TraffPol at Taplow!  Was the only estate we had and spent most of its time as the Motorway car as we could stuff the boot with kit!  Out of all the marked cars it had the easiest life as its obviously not that nimble round town, so didn't get ragged about too much. In fact most of us hated driving it so it spend alot of time sat in the back yard having a rest :y Only got stuffed once if i recall - You know the bit on the beginning of Road Wars intro sequence when the Police car gets rammed head on by an old Tipper Transit, taken from an in car view - yea, thats your car  :o

Has this been re-listed today or something? Just seen the ad and thought it sold a few days ago at half the price  ::)
