Title: thinking of buying advice please
Post by: marriedwithchildren on 25 August 2008, 18:51:41

Hello   thinking of buying a 2003 Omega cdx Estate  2.6  car seems fine but annoying squeak from rear , can hear from outside too. Cambelt needs doing but body looks fine.

Got service history, manual,  are these fairly "bullet proof" or what?

Thanks people.

Hello & Welcome  :y

Good cars, but do need maintaining.

Most niggles are common and easily sorted  :y

Hi and welcome to the forum :y

Great cars and yes they are bomb proof but make sure that you get the cambelt done sooner rather than later :y
