Rare 4 wheel drive Omega on Ebay
« on: 07 August 2010, 13:44:52 »
Just had a look at this standard looking Omega on the Bay of E.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1999-VAUXHALL-OMEGA-ELITE-V6-AUTO-SILVER-/150475555644?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item23090ac33c

What stands out is in the safety features it lists 4 wheel drive. Wonder how that works. Might buy it for spares and transplant into my tractor ! ;D ;D

never buy a car when you cant see the reg - why do people do that? just makes the car look dodgy - presumably he covers it up when he drives down to the shops as well  ;D :o

I might create a 4wd lotus carlton on forza3 later - see how it goes  ;D (no migs unfortunately  :()
