Title: Ex omega owner, but on the look out....
Post by: Freeman on 02 June 2009, 11:13:34: New to forum - seems like the place to be for some great advice.

As title suggests I used to be the proud owner of 98 2.5 CDX - however a disagreement on a bend involving a massive pot hole, huge blow out and oncoming transit van resulted in a sad sad end for omega :'(

Results of which can be seen below

I did indeed - but alas no joy (surprise surprise) - however the insurance company were fairly generous with the amount they paid out for my "top of the range luxury saloon" (no harm in embellishing a bit).

Looking for another similar spec (CDX or Elite, preferably manual) as I owe a fair bit to my previous car for keeping me safe and am thankful for...
1. rear wheel drive (meant I was able to avoid oncoming transit van - however on wet country roads ended up in hedge)
2. Seat belt pre-tensioners
3. Airbags
Having spun 180 degrees whilst simultaneously rolling I emerged with one tiny bruise on my right arm - my wife thinks I made it all up.
