Title: Hello! Thinking about getting a mig!
Post by: Ian_D on 24 December 2007, 01:40:26
Hi Everyone,

Im Ian, from York, and 20! :o

Im really wanting to buy an Omega Elite / MV6 (3.0 v6), and was wondering what sort of mpg these beasts do?

Im after an auto and 70% of my driving is town :'( so im not expecting too much mpg wise  :(

Ive got a Vectra GSi at the moment, and love the V6 engine! :y

Cheers

Ian

PS : Merry Xmas

Cheers for the welcome everyone

Providing the mpg will be around the high teens in town then it should be doable (just)!

Ive found a 3.0 auto elite, with 70k on the clock. It has mv6 alloys + sport leather seats fitted. Its described as perfect too.

Its £1799, does this seem about right?

Not really up on the prices for Elites.But I have recently bought an S reg manual MV6 with 55,000 on the clock and fsh.It also has the black sports leather.  The car is in really nice condition and I paid £1500 for it so I reckon £1800 is not that far off the mark.

20mpg around town may just about be achievable.  I'm heavy footed, and would expect around 17 from my 3.0l auto MV6

I know just couldn't believe my luck when he said he wanted £1500 for it.And he had just forked out on a full service too.I did an HPi check and everything is fine..Happy Days  ;)
