Very nice  :y

I got to admit, I prefare the pre / mini facelift.
As for the window, i'd do the tint in 3 shades.
Darkest on the back window then lighter as it moves forward.

I did my old Td Estate ( before it fell apart ) like that and it looks a treat.
I also put my company logo and contact details on the back and side windows in silver  :y
I had only drove it 3 miles down the road before I had my first phone call while sat at some lights

Must say, those wheels would look better on mine.
Want to swap for a set of 15" and shall we say 20 quid ?   ;D ;D

Testing The Beastie after Pinky had rebuilt half the engine gave me an urge to consider a manual project. Every time I drive TheDaddys car, I end up with a massive grin.  Its even more fun, as the tyres are utter shite ;D

Tunnie - the Irmscher sprung/Irmscher shocked ride is definately stiffer than MV6.

Pinky - Vader was possibly the best handling Omega I've driven. I loved every minute of that trip, even if you didn't. The car was perfection - fast, predicatable, consistent. A credit to you.  Then you break it for spares. Mad fool :P

MaxV6 - Irmscher/Steinmetz = 30mm drop. Std MV6 varies between 0mm and 15mm depending on model/options.

As to LPG, I would every time.  But if you see that Gixer bloke with a pocket of gravel walking up to the car.....

I have to admit when I had finished it was the Best Omega I have driven. Sidious however will be better. I will allow you knobby to drive it with the same deal as before... You ditch it you fix it :D

Heard some glowing reports about Vader's handling.

What are you doing different with this one Daz ?

Little bits here and there Steve, plus Sidious is a manual.

What I did notice whilst having a test drive in The Beastie on the local airstrip, that in third gear the speed was slightly more than what Obi's was. I can only put that down to a 2.6 diff against a 3.0 diff. Obi was able to drive everywhere in 3rd gear, it would drive from 10-15 mph upto 95-97mph with no question.... getting side tracked here.....

It did handle extremely well. The Master had it sideways which quiet frankly had me soiling myself... I did however enjoy the entry (to the make shift roundabout they fixed on the airstrip) the spirited drive around and exit so much, I begged him to do it again  :D ;D
