Yes. It's truly awful. I've had to spend nothing on it at all. God, I wish I had my omega back. I just don't know what to do with all this spare cash.

You must be the one person who has a Renault which is reliable.
They are the 21st century equivalent of a 1970,s Skoda. ;)

My Laguna was more reliable than my Omega. Then again, it was the Mk.1 Laguna, before they contracted out the bodywork to tupperware. ;D

Never had any real problems with the Omegas I have owned...then again I guess I have bought them with tax and MOT, driven them until the MOT was due and scrapped them...regardless of their ability to pass the MOT...so never actually owned one for more than a year! Maybe that's the secret to cheap Omega ownership??

He did mention liking Omegas - he's been in mine often enough - but I think I managed to talk him out of it ;D

I don't think any Omega is economical enough for him. Though it would pull his pikey wagon well...
