A big hi to you all
« on: 14 November 2008, 15:00:51 »
After buying another omega( first one stuck in my garage while i sort out a duff engine and LPG system!)i now have a 98 elite ,78k  ,half decent service history and easily the most comfortable car i've ever had,bought it off e-bay £430 with almost a years m.o.t and 6 months tax, i'm looking forward(is that being too optimistic?)for some quality motoring,any hints on what to look out for ? Can't find any evidence of a cam belt change, how long can i hang on for until i need to bite the bullet and spend some cash on it?all the best, jon

No evidence of a cambelt chnage so it could be 6 years and 38K overdue!

Or it could be 2 years overdue....

Welcome aboard Jon. Souds like a steal with the mileage, T&T but as said spend out on the cambelt & waterpump while you're at it.
   We all have, it's worth it. :y
