Thanks  Thumbs Up!
This is the second one I've had. Previous was a X'reg facelift 3.0 MV6 manual. Gorgeous car. I see you have a 3.2 V6... What are they like? I've seen a few MV6s and Elites around but they are autos and I'm not sure I really want the car changing the gears for me  Grin
I haven't seen many ex-plod cars in good nick (no pun intended) but at least they are manuals.

Thanks all. It was a little gem when I went to see it. Only had one previous owner from new and 73,000 miles. Had to get and if all stays well, it will be with me for some time  Smiley

Thanks for that. I was considering a 3.2 MV6 auto but I'll stick to a manual transmission I think. I was thinking about a Vectra 3.2 GSi as its the same engine but having a 2.2 SRi Vectra C I'm not massively keen on the handling Sad

Hi mate, looks lovely does that.  I've got the same in velvet/jungle green, mines auto though with leather.  Having just shy of 60000 miles on a 99 T.  Can I ask where you got your clear side indicators from?  Have you done any other mods besides?

Cheers Dean

might go for smoked now that I've looked into it, have them on the Vectra GSi aswell, look quite stealthy.

I got mine from eBay mate  Thumbs Up! I was thinking of tinkering with it but not too sure yet. I did consider a Viper kit or something similar but not sure whether it would be worth the expense. Re-badged it too as an Opel just to make it a little different  Smiley

I'm toying with the idea of selling the Omega as the other half says we really don't need two cars anymore  Cry What would I be looking to ask for it? The car that is!  Grin
Anyone help??
