New here and a new (to me) Omega!
« on: 02 September 2007, 17:43:29 »
Hi everyone,i have just bought a 2.5 v6 estate,full service history etc.
Done 200 miles since picking it up yesterday,and my backside still feels like it has been on feathers all that time :)
I had a Carlton a few year's back,and had thought the Omega B would be like that to drive.....how wrong i was,
this is a great car.

Anyway,my name is Iain,and i hope to learn a lot from this informative site

Welcome to the site :)

The Omega is a great mile cruncher :y

Certainly is, mine has done 160,000 and I have no doubt that it will do it all again.

I have personally done 15k in it, only had it 6 months now, eats the miles, and at 35-40mpg too.

Great car....  :y

And Welcome to the site...  :y :y :y

Howdoo, and welcome to the forum Iain.  I'm only about 10 miles east of you at the other end of the South Loch Road.  Theres a few now up here.  Check out the 'Jockular Omegas' threads in the meetings section.  Hopefully we will manage to get a local meet set up again soon.          :y

Hi Bruce and Dave :) (and everyone)

I will have a look in the jockular Omegas thread now :D

PS my judder problem is still there Bruce :( i had hoped it was mainly due to the car only doing 1500 miles or so since the last service and MOT ie.7 months ago.

So i may well need you're expert eye mate ;)
