Passed it's NCT ( MOT ) ...
Tester was full of praise for it which was a rare thing from these guys over here .
Expected it to fly through as it's covered a whopping 74 miles since Dec. '19 .
Now insured under a Classic policy the premium has more than halved so once it's taxed on May 1st I'm looking forward to driving it ,Covid or not .
Driving it today made me realise again how comfortable and capable these cars are , you just glide along sitting in an arm chair .
New timing belt kit (old one three and a half thousand miles in four years ) , water pump , front crank seal , fresh oil + filter and brake fluid flush scheduled for next week .
For those on here who don't know what an Omega looks like , or have forgotten   ;D ...

Very tidy! Perhaps not everyones favour colour, but at the age they are now, condition is the important factor. Nice!
