^good post! I too am a big fan of the Omega. Such a badass car.

[OSSHWA]

Pretty neat.

[DutchStance]

The Lotus Omega is a called a Lotus Carlton where it was made...
Sum very nice Opel there, have considered a Manta or a Kadett, to bad they rust even more than my Alfa´s.

This is my friends 400bhp? 78' Kadett City:

wow, that is the most insane burnout I have seen.

[Rainer]

Older rwd Opels are so much win. I'd love to own some, especially a Rekord D, Ascona B, Kadett C, Monza or Manta.
I'll contribute some pics to this thread later.

This is amazing!

[Kabat]

Some Kadett's E / Pontiac Le Mans

[Dr.AK]

Holy Shit. That is INCREDIBLE.


/edit:

And also: MOAR of the Manta in the 2nd Pic!

[Semu]

In the first post.
That's not Lotus Omega.
That's Opel Omega EVO 500

And about the Omegas.
Lotus Carlton had steering wheel on the right.
Lotus Omega had steering wheel on the left.
Everything else was the same

Oh just in case if anyone's wondering Opel's and Vauxhall's are pretty much the same car except for the badge.
