My first omega
« on: 22 March 2012, 16:02:08 »
Well back in 2002 my uncle bought his 2000W omega 2.5 v6 cdx. I loved it with it being so comfy and luxurious being just 15 at the time. 10 years later and I'm now the new owner. He's had the car stood for the past 18 months as he suspected head gasket, but looks more like the hbv to me. So With 85k on the clock I think I'll sort out the coolant leak, 3 new tyres (considering upgrading to elite 17inchers though) and a bloody good clean. The body is just grubby from standing, no dents or scratches, and may swap the velour interior for leather. ( can anyone tell me if the wiring is in place to do this for the electric seats?) then MOT, and tax and I should have a great car. Oh and a few irmscher bits to add I think, and rear tinted windows. Oh and must get the headlight lenses scrubbed up :)

Andy, the 2.5 V6 CDX was my first company car in 2002. My father now has the car. So it has been in the family for ten years. Still purrs like a kitten.
