53 Omega 'Sport' on Megavaux site
02. Aug 2006 at 17:42
 
Was earlier hunting through Vauxhall breakers, looking down Omega list on MegaVaux' site, and saw this:

http://www.megavaux.co.uk/Vehicle.aspx?Reg=AX53JYB

Never heard of the 'Sport' model...looks MV6 specced but with the 2.2 petrol engine...could be a nice project or breaker for someone.

Do you break V6's as often as TheBoy? Then you need tunnie's towing services, recovery costs are just the humiliation of being towed by 2/3's of an engine

Now. A 2.2 go-kart. That could be fun, but not as much fun as a 2.5 v6 go-kart. Now you're talking. With furry dice and an airbag. Oh, and one of those cup holders for the tea. And genuine vx mats.

Gawd, I'm on the medication tonight guys and it shows.............

AA, let's make a deal, if you buy the car and transplant the lowered suspension onto yours, I will take the pictures for the How2 Smiley
