seller said that he changed small part (link to the stabiliser) and vibrations stopped. Anyone had similar issue and solution?

Omega General Help / Shaky steering wheel when braking
« on: 07 July 2009, 21:04:35 »
Looks like I found a really nice Omega but seller is saying that there is a problem with vibrations while breaking. Any ideas what might cause this and how serious the problem is?
Does it sound like a costly repair?

Omega General Help / VIN number
« on: 08 July 2009, 20:56:28 »
I have got this VIN number
WOLOVBP69Y1182***
1. I am not sure if 2 and 3 symbol is O or 0 (letter or digit)
2. It should be right hand drive 3.0 FL elite but after decoding I was surprised that VIN says that this is actually mv6 made in Germany
I tough RHD omegas were made in the uk. :-/
does it make any sense to you? can anyone point me website with Vauxhall VIN decoding info or just decode this vin? (last 3 digits is just a serial number)
I have spent last hour trying to find one!

lack of service history worries me...
Seller doesn't know when (and if) cambelt was done.
Air conditioning needs regassing.
Looks like list of things that need to be done is getting long...

I have never seen FL 3.0 elite for less than 900. I have around 1500 in the pocket and I am looking for one for more than a month! I have changed my mind about LPG. It doesn't have to be LPG converted. I am planing to buy one without LPG and then beg on this forum for some help to convert it
It looks like some people have done wonderful job with DIY conversions. I have checked for LPG kits and they don't seem to be very expensive. The bigest problem is "know how", but I am sure that I will find some people willing to help

I am looking for 3.0 elite or MV6 from 2000 or younger. I have got about 1200-1300 max to spend. Any offers or suggestions?
I have recently seen 3.0 elite with 80k on the clock for 999. Unfortunately is sold now. Don't you think it was suspiciously cheap?

But is it actually possible to be sure that the car you are viewing is "the one"?
I wonder if we have any members who went for viewing, test drove the car, checked the price and said "I am sure that this is the car that I want" paid and drove away...

I have spoken to the seller and he said it was for this car. The other thing is number of previous owners, 2000 reg and 5 owners... doesn't it look suspicious?
