"The Tournament"
Good action packed film with a Police Omega used fairly regularly..,

Everyone should know about Road Wars so I'll say no more...

"Nine Lives" 2002
featuring x3 Black Omegas With Paris Hilton..

"The 51 State"
Features a Pre-facelift Omega briefly ...

"The Booze Cruize"
An Omega 2003 2.6 V6 CD Estate was used throughout the 1st series...

"Spooks"
Mainly series one of the series Spooks that was on BBC had the odd Omega in..

Reg: H4 BBC
Is Still a mayor's car I believe ... 3.2 Elite saloon...

Not a film, but I remember watching the local news when brown succeeded blair as the smiling assassin. The cameras were in the home town train station, Blair had just got off the carriage and walked over to a big black flash BMW with tinted windows, tried the door which was locked, and was then beckoned over to a rusty old faded pfl omega! Must've felt like a right tool.  Hahaha
