It did crunch a bit but it dont look to good now  :-[ The glass is ok but casing is no good , how i hit it is beyond me as i got the elite through it no problem  ::)

The Omega is a touch over six feet wide, whereas the 106 is about twelve feet long ::)

It was never going to fit sideways ;D

WIM aligned and reshod the Silver Bullet.

Chrisgixer and I fitted the rear doughnuts, and the wishbone spacers to TBE. Also fitted the handbrake springs I'd stolen off it to get the Bullet through the MOT ::)
