Hello All,
Owned it since the 28th of May 2008 and had 28,000 on it, now at 33,478. It's my first Omega, and first car...only 19 :) Badged as a 3.2, although it's only a 2.2 ;D

Mmm oops, that obviously didn't work. I read the instructions and thought I did everything right. Not sure what went wrong.
EDIT...fixed it now.

Nice looking car. Not bad for a first car too. I had a Skoda Estelle 120 as my first car when I was 17!!!! I could make it powerslide though!!! ;D ;D
-
Really nice looking Omega they look good in black, and only 19 yrs old? u prepared for the " you drive an old mans car" jokes? lol i got my first omega when i was 22 and still suffer those comments from people :)
-
Welcome, and nice Omega !! 8-)
The 3.2 has an double exhaust ! when you modded you're exhaust, it looks like an real 3.2 ;)
-
Welcome , nice looking car , my first car was a Vx Viva , very economical as I used to push it almost everywhere as it was always breaking down ;D ;D
Take care
Dave :y

Great first car. Nice motor you've got there. And that milage.. :y
-
Great choice for a first car Josh. My wife's omega was that same colour - really takes a rich shine.
Good luck with it

Thanks all, I've been a member on here for about as long as I've had the car, and without your help and knowledge I wouldn't love my Omega as much as I do. It can be a real money pit sometimes. I need a new exhaust from cat back and did order a 3.2 backbox so soon it'll have the twin tailpipe just like a real 3.2 :)
And yes lol, some of my friends think it's a grandad car...until they get in it and never complain about the smooth ride, and all the equiptment. I do get fights with who can sit in the front, so they can have the heated set.
-
Fit some heated rears and that'll stop that :y lol
I get those same old mans car comments, been driving carltons and omegas since i was 17 (21 now), though ive not heard any jokes about the black MV6 yet ;D ;)
Nice looking car. Lose the 3.2 badge tho! Its cool to put a smaller CC badge on... but not a bigger one ;D
-
looks good mate :y
-
33 and a half thousand miles on an 02 plate....bloody hell, that's good going.
Nice motor fella.

Cheers !

Thanks Hans-V6, you've got a lovely looking Omega too. I do prefer the look of the twin tailpipe exhaust instead of the single tailpipe. I think it just fits with the look of the car better. When it's fitted I'll upload a new image :)

Thats a real nice looking motor, hopefully with plenty of years happy motoring in it... :y

Hey, lets not jump the gun here, my first car was a Rover 414i... i nenver heard then end of it "what are ya 65?"
Nice tho, 19 and driving a 2.2... i remember getting a quote for the 414i on my own... was about £2000 :S
-
My first was a '67 Triumph Herald 1200 ...Loved it but I wouldn't swap now :)
-
Very nice, i wish i still had my cdx 2.6, miss the power.
:y :y
-
Nice car 8-)
But abit Gay badging as a a 3.2 and only being a 2.2.. like having snaclk crackle and no pop
-
hi all. just reading above entry about fitting the 3.2 back box on to the 2.2. Ive got a 2.6 mv6 with the single pipe back box and wondered if anyone knew if the 3.2 box will fit my 2.6.The reason i ask is that i had to replace the cat back and enquired at the time but they told me it was,nt possible. hopefully someone can tell me otherwise.cheers. :y

Marky100-
There's no reason why it wouldn't fit. There are two pipes running into the back box so it'd fit no trouble. It's being fitted to my 2.2 tomorrow and they match up fine. So as far as I'm aware a 3.2 backbox would fit your 2.6.

very low millage, nice car for 19 you lucky git! ;D
-
Lovely example :y

looks good!
