General Car Chat / Re: Thinking of buying an Omega...HELP!!!

« on: 01 September 2011, 19:56:35 »

Hello Emma.

Welcome to the forum 

Maybe a good starting point to say what sort of Omega you'd like as then those that have the type your interested in can advise on strong / weak points, what they're like to own, run, insure, etc.
Are you after a saloon or estate, do you want a small engine for insurance / running costs.  Petrol / diesel / Gas conversion.  One which is a no frills (low spec) or fully loaded, etc.

Plenty of us on here that I'm sure will be willing to help out.

Regards 

lol sorry, yes I should have been a bit more descriptive!

I want a non facelift one rather than the newer shape, I want an automatic 2.5 litre saloon and ideally it would be silver or white! I travel quite a few miles to work daily and as you can pick them up cheaply one might be a good buy. Insuring it isn't a real problem (I'm 37). I'm just wondering the sort of things to check for.

Thanks for that link, sorry I didn't see it before starting this thread

General Car Chat / Thinking of buying an Omega...HELP!!!

Hi Guys!

New to the forum, sorry if this is in the wrong place.

I'm thinking of buying an Omega. I'd like a non facelift one if possible. Looking around the site it seems they can be quite expensive to own. 

There are a few on eBay right now. There is a black one and a silver one which both look ok but the silver one has a gearbox problem. I'm not sure what the seller means when he says the selector switch is broken.

Any advice or tips on buying one would be greatly appreciated!
