Has the Omega been reviewed on Top Gear ?
« on: 18 August 2012, 21:08:37 »
I'm I correct in thinking that Top Gear has never had the Omega PFL / FL on when it was new on the TV series that is not the online website/magazine etc...?  :-\


Just was curious to see what they'd have to say but then again if it was like the vectra Review id punch them all  ;D

and the MSD V6 Veccy

The closest video i could find was this where Jeremy mentioned the Omega for about 1 second...

Same question came up a while back, Omegaman. I think the answer is "No".

Not afaik. JC once referred to the omega as the most comfortable Taxi he's ever been in.

They used an omega in a remote control cars smash up in a gravel pit.

And 5the gear once did a blow out test on an omega, which was the biggest load of 'dangle berries' I've ever seen as they claimed the car would vear off in a front blow out, even though the driver had the car on full lock at about 70mph before they even blew the tire out in a "controlled" explosion.

No but when it was confirmed it was ceasing production, he said that he hoped for an S class to take him places if he ordered a car/give one, but if that did not turn up he hoped for an Omega, as it was the most comfy car to be in the back of, second only to an S class
