Very nice motor that mate.
-
Love paint.. Reminds me my previous MV6.. :D
And manual.. Sweet bit, much beter than auto.. Unfortunatelly it is not so mint, some rust here and there, and 2 small dings on back.. Easiest bit will be to replace rusty panels (rear boot lid and rear pass doors)..

But, wahey! Paid less than £300 for her some time ago! :)
Still not bad! :)
Have got big plans with her, and in first instance headlights and grill. Need to get original mats (with red Vx lettering).
Then possibly few other nice bits.. Thanks for the comments!

-

Its the YWP part of the reg same as mine ;)

wow, thats really interesting! So all cars with YWP ar ex-fleet / display cars?
-
well guys as far as i know they are"worcestershire" regestrations, a fleet management company called"white arrrow" used to PDI and regester a great many omegas for vauxhall motors press and demo fleet for all over the country. check your service books if you have still got it? demo cars were nearly always top of the range. living in the west mids and working in the trade and stamping a few service books you get to recognise certain cars that were"block"regestered. ford motor company also do it to this day and are easy to spot. hope this helps?
-
So can I somehow try to trace history of my Omega?
-
well it could be easy or quite difficult to impossable! bit like "friends reunited"" DVLA keep certain info(go on their site and put your reg number in)vauxhall keep some info like when you order parts or a radio code. also your service book, is yor omega a "local"car? in 1996 it may have been sent out to your area and been there ever since???
-
No, bought from Norfolk (dealer plates and sticker on a window). Mey be worth hunting..
Any other useful tips then? Unfortunatelly service history is missing except last few years..
-
well if it was a norfolk vauxhall dealer then it may well have been serviced by them so prev owner and service details will be on their system, other than that previous owner? we do it a lot in our workshop and its surprising what a couple of phone calls can turn up! can solve a whole load of grief and money if you know what the car has had spent on it in the past!! good luck.......
