What was once my Omega

[Omega_on_fire]

Purchased this one in 2008 on Ebay and went to get it.  Always wanted an Omega since they were first launched and needed a load lugger so it fit the bill.  Plus I love big engines .

Though was a little shocked at the price of exhaust parts. 

Ironically, just 10 days before the car caught fire via the Power sounder, I'd shelled out a large sum for a set of Uniroyal Rainsport 2 tyres in the 225 size.  Amazing tyres.  The Omega was awful in the rain on the P6000's that came with the car - frankly the scariest car I've ever driven in the rain, and thats coming from someone who has an old Rover SD1 3500 V8  (rear wheel drive).  After the Uniroyals were put on it was an amazing car to drive in wet even the recent monsoon conditions we had down here.  Got to enjoy those tyres on that car for just 10 days before it went up in flames  .

What a bloody shame ......
It looked to be a lovely cherished example too.
Whatever happens I wish you good luck in replacing it.
