Hi all,
Thanks for the comments all. It is interesting to hear views from other Omega owners.
Biggriffin: - Didn't know i had rear light level sensors, I'll look those up. Interesting you mention the 3.0 downpipe, is that the best one to go for?
Diamond Black: - Saving money and timing of purchases is exactly it. I don't like being in a position where I'm forced to pay list because there is an urgency to return the car to the road.
Nick W: - Thanks for that suspension list. That is exactly what I'm looking for. The bearings you mention in connection with the struts. Do you mean the wheel bearings? or are there other bearings in that assembly that i'm not yet aware of?
Eboy and Nick W:- thank you for your point that many spares are likely to be readily available for a while longer. I hope that you are right. However, as I said before, Omegas are disappearing very rapidly. How this will effect parts supply is , I think, difficult to say. The last 5 years and the next may be very different.
Ultimately, I like the idea of keeping an Omega on the road, within reason, for the next 10+ years. I know this will seem like bonkers to some but I like the idea of one as a modern classic.
Thanks again.
Graham
