Hi ppl
Theres only 2 things I dont like about my omega,1 its an auto and 2 its a 2.2 not a 2.5,so if theres anyone here who has a manual 2.5 omega who wants an auto please let me know,my car is as follows.
omega 2.2 CDX auto 2000(W)
dark metalic red paint with grey interior
T&T till sept
tinted windows
volvo 850 T5 alloys (look nice)
she's got a towbar (was fitted 2 weeks before I got her and has only been used twice by me to move my caravan around the drive.
she had new rear springs last november
mileage reads nearly 80k but there isnt any history apart from the lease form when she was a company operation directors company car so I would assume the mileage may not be accurate
CDX so has all the toys apart from leather
she's in nice condition apart from the following and i'm being very picky here
theres a scuff on the o/s front corner of the front bumper
the n/s front door has been keyed but this and the bumper scuff were there when I got her.
theres a rattle at tickover but aparrently this is common and the sound disappears as soon as you touch the throttle.
the digital display brings up 2 faults,1 coolant level (although Ive not had to top it up since owning her)
and 2,low fluid vision,(again shows this message even when the screenwash is full so both faults are most likely sensors at fault)
and finally when you first turn the ignition on the car symbol with a spanner comes on,if it flashes the car wont start,but if you turn off,then on again she'll start,however she doesnt do this very often,maybe twice a month,I'm guessing that the cam sensor is on its way out.
so Ive been brutally honest about her,I dont want to sell her but just change her for a manual 2.5 version,dont mind if its pre-facelift but a tow bar would come it handy
Cheers
Dan
