At Last.... She PASSED!!!
28. May 2009 at 23:46

Now MOT'ed for another year!

Feels like i've got my legs back now! Grin

Bloody LMF selling crappy steering idlers! Lesson learnt : 'Dont by cheap crap - its costs A LOT more in the end' Angry

Just thinking now that the Omega is the longest ive ever had a car on the road! Will be almost 16 months now! Cheesy

And i'm still happy with it! Thumbs Up!

Sooo glad I got the mig and not another Vectra B (Not that I dont like Vec's anymore or anything - infact I do keep thinking about a Vec C, but I cant bring myself to selling the mig! Plus theres too many mates on OOF!

)

LMF are utter rubbish - dont buy steering idlers from them! You've been warned!

Frickin' Veccies! Gotta eat my words now. Today a black 53 plate tastefully lowered (not OTT) aftermarket rear lights, peachy black rims with deep dish polished alloy inserts & what looked like red/chrome centre caps joined the motorway to my left then in front. Twin zorsts, highly polished & it led on a bit, looking, i hate to admit, cool as feck!!! Roll Eyes
