Just joined so hello everyone.
Looking for a lot of advice as the last Vauxhall I had was a 2.0 Auto Cavalier in 2006 and wished I had never sold it but that's life.
Anyway I am looking to buy an Omega Automatic saloon and are trying to seek advice on what model, engine size, year, yes or no mileage, things to look for really any owner advice in general.
I'm 67 years old and would like a bit of luxury to drive around in and to enjoy.
Many thanks in anticipation.
Chris
Getting back on topic.......
Chris only asked for a bit of informed advice about buying an Omega and I think a good few have done a pretty good job of putting him right off! - probably not wholly intentional, but nevertheless had a good try!
I have owned several Omegas since 2004 and currently own 3 Elites - whilst I do 99% of the work on them myself, owning one isn't quite as much doom and gloom as has been portrayed. Yes, old cars need more tlc than your moden cars (say upto 3 years old that have usually only had one service), but a certain degree of work other than general servicing is likely with the majority of even 7 year old plus cars, irrespective of make. Some Omega parts are becoming harder to find, but not impossible - again the Omega isn't on its own in this respect....
If you are fortunate to find a respectable Omega, I would definitely recommend going for it - you won't regret it irrespective of what has been said by a few.....
You will get a lot of useful advice on here, as long as you ignore the minority, and search the minefield of useful information available here.
Most people are friendly - honest!
