As far as I can tell my omega is still rust free and I want to keep it that way. Are there any tips on how to keep it this way apart from the obvious waxoyl spray and where does rust generally start on these ladies

although I dont live in UK, years of membership in OOF and watching many pictures , I can easily say rear wheel arches (as mud can accumulate there), rear door arches are primary candidates.. however although not visible, I can estimate most parts underneath the car is also risky areas..
and as a general rule , epoxy base coat is #1 to isolate these areas from water.. but must be applied with a mask as its too poisonous :-\

Rear wheel arches , rear door bottom corners , corners of front widscreen .... looking at mine underneath its surface rust from peeling underbody sealant :( will be spraying it all inc box sections with waxoil when i can bend down underneath :)
