Tried to start the V6, flat battery....
Old battery on so I can lock it, battery now on charge. I'm really struggling to get my Mojo back for the V6.
some gas maybe...?
Trouble is, what I would want to do with it would be B4's, Eibach springs, poly front wishbones, eternal exhaust, gas it... add that lot up and and that'd keep the DTi in fuel for over 8 months and having to tighten my financial belt isn't helping.
sell the Dti! Sorted.
But yes good point.
Not sure how the ecomnics compares between Dti and LPGd 3.2. But if it's even remotely close, financially, v6 refinements might swing it, no?
600 miles range is always nice to see on the display though.
TBH, the big decider for me is that the DTi is manual and, as I may have mentioned before, I dislike the Omega Manual box with a passion Of course, I also like the V6 performance for similar to DTi running costs
Couple of reasons why I want to keep it
1) The smoothness and refinement of an Elite V6.
2) I've spent a small fortune on this car getting it sorted and I should be enjoying the rewards of that
3) No one would ever give me the sort of money I want for it - ie. what it's worth to me.
4) I can't afford a Monaro (and to start again with sorting it out how I would want it with my tightened finance belt on!)
I think I will just have to slowly acquire the bits I want to get it to the way I want it. To me the LPG isn't high on the list beause we have his and hers DTi's to for the daily commute, the V6 will never be used day to day unless a DTi dies in a big way.
