Took it for MOT... Failed!  >:( Nothing major, just handbrake and rear pads. But I had to order the parts so I couldn't get the pass ticket today. Was gonna give her a good clean up when I got back, but wasn't in the mood.  :( It's amazing what an MOT fail does to ya!  ::)

Well, maybe a little.  ::) Plus I was thinking that with what I need to do with the car on Monday, it probably makes sense to wait until afterwards before I give her a proper clean up!  :y

Yesterday - Change the drivers door for a much nicer one - thanks to Twiglet.
Had the screen changed for an almost new one - Thanks to Twiglet and his windscreen fitter mate.
Today - Had my HID,s aligned, as they were far too high, which is never a good thing.

About 30 mins ago, came home in the Omega...

Gave it a LOT more stick than normal, and had a big smile on my face and though 'hmm... I will keep it a bit longer'  :y

Goes round roundabouts and bends like its on rails - even when pushed!  :o

Think I need to give it a wash, and I've a few little mod's that im wanting to do - and since I've lost my job :(, I should have a bit more time on my hands :)

Then its time for some photos... :y

Swapped wheels front to back on Sunday, fitted new coil PAC yesterday, fitted new lambda today.

Everyday it's either jacked up or the bonnets up.... Or I'm cleaning it, or some sort of upgrade is going on somewhere.

Neighbors must think omegas are crap.  ;D

Brakes front and back, and irmscher Chav bodywork still to sort out, by then it'll need another oil change. Onandonandon it goes.

Will it ever end...?  ;D

Replaced the rear indicators ( MOT advisory, not yellow enough  :-X ) and one brake light. Beware Halfrauds bulb selection guide for Migs is totally wrong.
