Big Estate
« on: 13 August 2014, 00:08:33 »
I could really do with an estate as an LPG'd saloon isn't really that practical as I found out yesterday when I tried to squeeze a fridge in the boot.  ::)

So I was having a peruse of ebay and spotted this!  8)

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Large-FORD-Fairmont-Australian-Estate-car-Auto-Full-MOT-Delivery-available-LPG-/121408589775?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item1c44840fcf

Well it's big!  :y  and maybe I could do some subcontracting for the local undertakers!  :)

Well now. I wonder. Where, on earth, would we find a big Estate car, Tigger? Here on omega owners forum. With a good knowledge of omega tech and a supply of spares...?

Anyone? Hmmm tricky. (Ponders...) ....a large Estate car. Hmmm, now where did I see one of those recently. Wasn't far away I'm sure....

 (Wonders off muttering) Hmmm, large Estate car..... Hmmm....    ???

::) ;D
