It's not an Omega, but does warrant a mention.
I had a 1966 2000 SC P6 Rover that had covered 280,000 & still ran really sweet. A Rover buff bought her off my mum after she had covered even more miles  :)

That's overdue a HG then ;D


I think its generally fair to say the 2.0 are good for around 200k, the v6 seems to go on until cambelt does damage or car scrapped for other reasons, and TD until it shoves a piston through the block.

HG seams ok for now, but i do have a new timming belt in the boot waiting to be fitted, should be good for a few more miles after that. :)

a piffling 91k here on 52 plate 3.2

my mondeo was falling to bits at the same mileage, and not in a way that a forum like this could have helped, like a beyond economical repair sort of way, clutch gone, bottom end knock top end rattle, breaked steering rack.

Omega seems good for another 90k i hope. :-X (Q some horrendous engine failure or accident on the way home)
