Hi Everyone. I have just bought my first Omega its a 01 plate v6, 2.6, CDX at first I thought I had got the bargain of the century at £500 until I noticed that 2 of the tyres were fitted anti-rotation so down I went to my local tyre/exhaust garage and they found front brakes were shot so new discs and pads were fitted then they found the exhaust was holed so a new exhaust from cats back,( they did show me the faulty bits )then I am replaceing the rear pads because they are down plus the HID light has gone out on the o/s so a new power unit is sent for and on top of this the cam cover gasket is leaking so there i go again, more expence, so all in all a bargain was not what I got...but saying all this at the end of it all, I will have one of the best cars Vauxhall has ever produced, then I'll be a happy bunny...Tony.

Hey there Tony. Welcome to the OOF :)
The fact that the tyres were fitted wrong doesn't make that much difference. I know it sounds daft, but it's true.
If anyone wants to try to say i'm wrong, then i'll gladly post up the reply i had from Michelin Tyres when i asked them the question ;)
