Cars for Sale & wanted / WANTED: Omega Estate

« on: 20 January 2016, 19:28:53 »

I'm in need of an Omega estate;
Age, colour and mileage are immiterial. any engine size, fuel and gearbox combination considered (would prefer an auto)
MOT a must; the longer the better. I can live with serviceable consumable items needing attention (brakes, tyres, exhaust and the odd job, but not major issues i.e head gasket failure, clutch etc.
In no way don't expect a minter for this money, but I don't want something that resembles a rat-rod either!
I'm looking to pay ~£500
I'm in Suffolk, so something within reasonable distance to be considered.

Other large estate car would be considered

Thanks

Omega General Help / Superchip on 3.0

« on: 05 August 2011, 06:38:38 »

A local vendor to me will superchip my car for £168 giving a claimed 12-15 bhp power gain. I'd like to know of anyone has had experience of Superchips in the past and if I'd notice that sort of power gain?
I know it is a generic map as opposes to an individual/bespoke re-map
But for £168 it seems reasonable in the grand scale
of things....?

Omega General Help / Possible Omega ower....after a few pointers please

« on: 18 November 2008, 17:40:35 »

Hi.
....basicly I have a Cherokee and after having 2 (4.0's) of them I now thinks it's time to go back to a regular car.
We have an 07 Vectra SRi 150 CDTi too, and after having a first genration vectra when I was 19 (nearly 9 years ago) I swore I would never have another vauxhxall..........but we went for it.
Any way I like the Omega; nice big comfy rear drive salon, so could you please tell me what to look for, whats the best model to go for best engine size etc.
I took a 'W' plate facelift one out this 'arvo; a 2.0 auto. It did seem a little under powered but I was expecting that. Do they ecotec's in the omega suffer the same probs as the ones used in vectras? Coz as i said I did have a 1.8 at one point and the cam belt let go about 2000 before a change was due and I replaced the cam sensor 3 times and a crank sensor. I'd like a V6; would there be much difference between the consumption of that and a 2.0? I'd just like to know peoples opinions and expeiences. Thanks

Are these interchangeable between the two? I may be getting an mv6 bumper to replace my elite one. Also can I ask what I should be paying for one (bumper that is)
