Just received the latest ABS magazine and on the back cover is a very nice picture of Albatross's car.


Very Nice and Well Done that man :y

yes, does look good. Same shots as shown on here.
Should have been on the front cover rather than that brown thing with a pilon in the background. But then it is straight6 news not v6 news.

Shame Nathen prefers the Steinmetz spliter to the Irmscher item?   (imho of course)

Like the way the car sits especially though. Wheres  a good place to get 25mill wheel spacers? By good i mean cheap(ish)

Yeah, looks good ,huh?

I think it's great that there's room for Steinmetz on someone's car! :y
Not as popular but just as distinct - like the wheels - not my cup of tea but don't they suit that car just so well!

As the editor, Alex, is an Omega man, we might see a few more, but as every editor knows they can only include what's been sent in.

There's some great stuff in the OOf gallery that could be a great advert for the Omega.
I guess some folk may not want to, I dunno?

Lovely to see it anyway!

I think Albatross's is the quickest Mig I've driven - although - I had the back end somewhat happy on VXL V6's once too... . ;D

And on New Years eve with a road composed of sheet ice I managed to make the front look rather Sad!  ::) ......Then again, the replacement one feels slightly more lively in the engine department and far more planted with new suspension all round!  8-)

Yours is a slighty different shade of silver - star silver 3 wasn't it?

All these Elites I keep coming across - makes my 2.6CD look a bit basic
