    The digital clock can be persuaded to display properly by removing it and removing the back and ensuring the striped rubber LCD contact strips are pressed tighter. Each segment of the strip controls a segment on the display. Before I sorned my GTi for repairs, I used to daily it on a 76 mile round trip commute.

    Two of my school teachers had red 216's, one was a GTi and I did think that they were kind of cool, even knowing they were not the best GTi's around. These days, they're a proper "oh wow" sight. Same with the old 80's Vauxhall Nova. Absolute sheds in the day, pretty cool to see now. Wonder if the AA and RAC were on standby to cope with the gathering of BL cars...

    To be honest, 305bhp and lots of happy V8 noises are more than enough. My take is this: The only person you car needs to impress is you. If it gives that "wow that's mine" smile, then it's perfect. Who cares if it's 20 years old and "not that powerful".

    It's very different to talk about driving a legendary road to actually doing it with your own car. If I want to absolutely spank it, I'll do a track day or go Go-Karting. When it comes to my own car, on actual public roads with hazards and speed cameras and other people, you have to temper the speed to make it all enjoyable. Speed alone does not equal fun, it's the experience and I think you show that perfectly.

    Very nice to see that there are still some people left who love their Omega. I have my current Omega B (3.0 DTI, 620 Nm, 265 hp, Omega V8 diff with 50 % LSD, Vectra C OPC brakes) since 2015, so 9 years. Driving it only in the summer months since 2017. And I still have that special feeling when I get in the car and start the straight six engine. The look of the facelift Omega B is also still timeless I think. Looking forward to see more videos with it. Cheers from Germany, Thomas

    Hi Thomas, I'm glad you enjoyed the video, sounds like you got a nice one, you have a 3.0 straight six diesel?

    @@L.r.e_motorsport Yes, the base model was the "2.5 DTI" (2.5 liter straight six BMW M57 from E39 525d) which was sadly never available in the UK since they had problems fitting the steering rack on RHD. So the old 2.5 TD (BMW M51, also straight six) was the only one the UK market got. In 2016 I swapped the 2.5 liter for the 3 liter from the E39 530d (193 hp or 190 bhp in the UK) which is a very tuneable and bulletproof engine. I have customers with over 800 Nm (~ 600 ft-lbs) and 350 hp on this engine. The torque is insane. 😅 I can't imagine selling the Omega, I had so many memories with that car, it would be like cutting off my arm. Last year it got 20 years old, so it is called a Youngtimer here, still another 10 years until it officially gets a Oldtimer. Hard to imagine with that still very modern look. 😁
