Title: Hello: looking for an omega estate
Post by: daveycooper on 02 December 2018, 16:34:19

Hello chaps and chapesses

I’m going to do the annoying newbie and thing and say “I’m looking for an omega, preferably an estate”.

There we go.

Have been looking for a while and annoyingly just missed out on a couple up my way (aka the proper north). But not giving up, especially as the wife has a baby on the way and I need the practicality of an estate. So omega or rover 75 estates are on the shopping list.

Hopefully post as a regular over the coming months.

Cheers
Davey

Hi & welcome try to get a V6 in preference to a 4 pot we had a 2.2 estate & a 2.6 saloon the V6 was a much nicer engine the 2.2 was underpowered in my opinion.

Bah, four pot is fine*, just needs to be driven differently... although all Omegas actually drive well ;)

*I would probably skip the 2.0 8v auto though... that's probably hard work ::)

Agreed the 4 pots have to be driven differently because they are grossly underpowered, got it perfect this time.
