As usual and as part of the faceless hoard drove it to London 45 miles and then back 45 miles and didn't spot another friggin Mig.

;D
Slow day on the M1 then... ::)

VXL V6

I didn't see another Omega either.... until I got home  ::) ;D

Fan has stoped working in the Elite, think it's time to fit the used fan that RobG sent to me a few months back and I have just ordered a new resistor, it's always something, plus I need to do the MoT on the MV6

Took it to the local garage (at 5 am) and posted the key through the letter box.

Walked home, fed the baby then drove SWMBO's Golf to work. At 11am I got a text from SWMBO to say the Omega was back on the drive with a new MOT :y can't praise my local garage enough for being helpful  :y :y

One advisory - "001 oil leak". I assume it is the one from the rusty patch in the middle of the oil pan. :-\ but I need to check whether the autobox is weeping after I refilled it.

No response to my wanted Ad for an oil pan :( I suppose I will have to start stalking anyone who is stripping a V6 ::)
Paid a visit to Evans Halshaw to buy a tube of grey 'glueing sealant' and order a new oil pan.

Decided that at £54 on TC I would try again to get a good used one - if I can't get a good one then it will be a 5 minute repair job with the welder (plus 30 minutes prep then time paint drying time after  ::))

Took it to the cheese factory. And I ate loads of cheese.

Kicked it to get it started, drove it to the local shop, drove home and parked it up....

Found it under almost an inch of snow. So did the honourable thing, and came back in and had some toast

Broke it. Waiting for recovery.  :'(
Doh... :-\
It's dumped all it's coolant. Pishing out as quickly as I put it in, so must have a hose split or come adrift somewhere.  It's coming down the back so it's HBV related I guess.  :-\
