Do I or Don't I
06. Jun 2007 at 00:45

Hi All,

Am new to the forum, well been a guest for a while, and am now considering an Omega after many years driving other German motors.....though GM has been in the blood since the age of 3!

I'm currently considering an MV6 or Elite, basically I NEED ALL the toys and struggle to run a car without grunt and just to show I'm a real GM nut, here's what else is sat in the garage.

Just in case some of you aren't familiar with her, she's a 1969 Opel GT, one of 9 that I have sitting around in either bits, resto or on the road. She's the cream of the crop, too much history for this brief hello, but if any of you are at Billing (only 5 weeks to go), come and have a look and a chat, I hope to have at least 1 GT on the club stand, but there could be 3!

Thought I'd come back to you all with an update and also to say 'thanks' for the warm welcome.

Well after much searching and accounting for the limited budget I've plumped for a 2001 2.6 CDX Manual in silver, not quite the grunt of the 3litre, but hopefully a bit more economical! I hope to pick her up this weekend and will then slowly begine the process of 'subtle modification'.

I'll post some pics when I have her.

Cheers for now, Mark

I recognise the opel GT but does it run the 1.9 engine like the early MANTA? Smiley
