Could be worse, might have been a Leaf ::)

We are yet to do the quarter mile test between a leaf and a mig.  It would be interesting ::)

To 30 the mig would be well beat, 40 possibly still ahead but after that I am not sure ;)

I'm sorry. I have brought dishonour to the Omega world. Sorry  :-[
Oh 'dangle berries', its happened again. Though I was in the Zaffy this time. Out dragged by a car with a trailer...  ...even when I did catch up, he eased away as soon as the silly tit hogging the outside lane got in.

Replaced one new tyre for another new tyre due to a screw going through the edge and ripping the wall .  Wouldn't have minded if it had done more than 20 miles.

Proved beyond any doubt to Mrs TB that the Battlebus's tyres will let go before the car topples.  I'm not sure she is convinced, or forgiven me yet.

Looked at it through the window.

Adjusted the handbrake on the 2.2, only 3 clicks now. But spotted the very last part of the coil spring on passenger side, has snapped off  :(

Why is it Omega springs can barely last 3 years?  :(
