hi all was just wondering how many miles an omega will generally do b4 its had its day my 94 elite has done 274000 miles and runs like a dream
-
is that on its original engine?
thats damn good!
-
not sure i was given it for free a couple of weeks ago and there are no markings on the engine itself
-
for free, dont complain, but if it dies tomorrow, you got your money's worth ;D
-
i aint complaining only reason i got it was me m8 just got banned and he paid nothing 4 it 2 got a full service history with it and just took it on a 350 mile round trip without any problems
-
only thing worrying me is says its a 1994 2.5l cdx on paperwork
but elite badge everywhere dont no anything about omegas
so dont no if this is normal 4 the car
-
badges are just badges, not much to worry about, does it have elite toys??
i dont know what toys the earlier elites had compared to the CDX
mine on the outside looks like an elite, i put elite alloys and spoiler on mine, but its just a GLS
-
Elite will have leather interior with electric 3 position memory seats, auto dimming rear view mirror etc.
CDX did not have any of the above.
Oh and 2.5 Elite was not produced until 1997.
-
oh right then its a cdx cause mines a 94 cheers

I agree that it's probably a CDX (as badges mean diddly-squat), but my '94 2.5 CDX Estate had all the available options installed including auto dim rear mirror, memory seats, full leather, heated rear seats, sunroof, cruise etc. all factory fit & original.

mines just bog standard the best thing about it is the misses dont like driving it so no chance of it getting damaged lol

The auto dim mirror, memory seats and heated seats were the electric pack which could be specified on models lower than Elite - my CDX has it. Leather would also have been another option specified, but separate from the electric pack. Sunroof and Cruise were standard on the CDX.

if looked after, the engine should outlive the car, so its mileage isn't an issue, as long as body/chassis is sound....
I'd give it lots of oil changes though ;)
