      Pause around 1:35 then you'll see the tell-tale white '3000' sticker under the Omega badge and left of the '24V' one. So it's a late-model 3000 as they got the 24V-Upgrade around 1990, I think.

Brought back memories of a guy I knew in my teens who had one and somehow wired in a standard house speaker for his stereo so it'd be bouncing round his boot and sliding around. He used to have his seat so far back because he was 6ft. Sadly he hung himself in the woods near his house, very sad. Good memories of him though, he was a funny guy.

    The biggest problems of "slow cars" and mostly old cars that were cheap, is the tire width, if you put wider rims and tires you can increase a lot the cornering ability of the car. And second thing is the suspension, if you put stiffer suspension and harder roll bars you can make them even better. Just check how good the ban at 8:13 handled the turn with better tires and a racing suspension.

      precisely. people have no idea what "fast" or slow" is in a car, they just look at numbers on a sheet of paper
