I think we should should have an "ex-Omega Club" and maybe what was bought next

Me ? After four Omegas I now have a Volvo XC70 Estate. A bit dull but not bad. Great road holding.

Oh!

Some day - I think around 2022 - I will be the last real Omega driver all over Europe. Should I be allowed to write to the Previous Omega Owners Forum?

I hope so....

I am not forced to drive an old Omega. I simply like it.
