And that was a very long time ago!!! I'm...possibly....more up to date on RB211's!

An RB211 has no chance of fitting under the bonnet of an Omega, though. A Griffon, on the other hand <rubs chin>.

I know someone who has one or two

But it will just about fit in the back of an estate, with a touch of Astramax styling....

Sorry to hear that Paul.  Was good to have met you on our Omega travels, and hope that we will again cross paths.

Stick around here, it's a belter of a site

I used to buy flood cars from insurance auctions. Damage depends on water level.
Most common:
One connecting rod is bent (if water went in), electrical problems. They are toys for experienced engine mechanic + electrical problems.
10K car can be bought for about 3K, not much money is needed for parts. Last flood car I bought about 4 years ago, it was 06 Mitsubishi Eclipse. I replaced connecting rod/rings and repaired minor front bumper cover damage. I enjoyed driving it for a few months. My wife loved it, it was stick shift with 265 HP engine.
