Thank you and glad to be here, hopefully I will be around a while as this is my first Omega as I was always a Ford man. Mainly bought it as I had just been made redundant at the time and could not find a family estate in good condition at the time, well that was until I found the Omega. I have to be honest and admit Im now converted and will most def be looking for another once settle in with the new job!  Grin
