Hi, I'm quite å noob here on this forum so I really don't know where to place this post, so I just post it here:p
The omega i have is a 2,2 cd 2000.
Is it possible to buy å 3,2 2000 , and just move, the engine, transmittion, seats, and all of the electronics from the 3,2 , to the 2,2 ?
because in norway, where I live, there were no Opel omega 3,2 sold.
And importing one is WAY to expencive, because of all the taxes.
So I came up with a plan to buy this 3,2 2000 in germany, and ship it to norway, and then rebuild the 2,2 into a 3,2 !
enyone here knows if it is possible for me to do it ? (amateur mechanic) or how much it will cost to have it done?
Answers will be quite helpfull (:

Hi Steff, welcome to the forum.
I don't know the answer to your question but someone more knowledgeable will be along soon to help. :y
-
why not just keep the 3.2 as it is or is this because off tax's etc
-
Norway's import taxes will make importing a car too expensive.
However if it's bought in for parts it will never be registered in Norway, and the parts can be installed in the already registered shell.
-
the taxes are too high...
it would cost me 150000nok ( 20000eu) to import this 3,2 ( in taxes only )
so i think it would be cheapest to just move everything over to my 2,2omega. that would cost me 0 in taxes ;D
-
How would you insure the 3.2 car? Presumably it would get a higher rating being a one off in your country?
-
it wouldent be to xpencive, because insurence goes alot on crash statistics, and its not a new car, so it would not cost so much.
there were no 3,2 sold here, BUT there were some imported from germany. so they exist i norway, but not many, and most automatic ( i need it with a manual gearbox ) :p

From my recollection most Norwegian insurance companies treat the omega 3,0 and the 3,2 as the same. Im paying around 4000 kr (400£) for my 3,0.
