Opel Omega FL 2.5 DTI
« on: 14 February 2013, 14:36:43 »
Hello everyone. I'm a proud owner of a MY2002 Omega FL saloon with Y25DT engine and 5 speed auto. It's a shame UK buyers didn't get this engine - it's silky smooth (for an oil burner, of course), delivers great fuel economy (I'ts possible to squeeze out 50 mpg on an A road) and, with proper mods -pretty fast (one of the guys over here with a BMW 3.0D turbo, injectors, custom 3" exhaust and remap got 270 Hp and 370 lbs ft out of this motor).

My car has almost all of the toys that were available on the FL (HID lamps, BOSE, CID, leather, phone, auxiliary heater, rear blind, etc.), except electrically folding side mirrors and heated rear seats.

So, here goes:

















We get quite a lot of snow over here, so the LSD and ESP works overtime :) Even though the car has winter tires, I always carry a shovel in my boot... Saved my ass quite a few times.



Cheers!

Quick question, why are the wheels in your last photo different ? Was this an earlier or later pic?
All the others have he same alloys as I have on my MV6, and I think suit the car very well.
Also, the silver surround on yours is that a modification you have made? Only ever seen the silver on MV6's, all others have the wood effect.

Yep, those are 15" OEM steel wheels with 205/65 winter tires. 17" alloys are for the summer season only :)
The silver surround is original part that came with the car. Door inserts are of the same color (as is the gear lever surround).

Well, maybe it would, but I prefer the cleaner (if a little bit duller) boot lid shape as it is now.

Did the Omega's have those?.. Haven't seen any Vauxhall Omega's with them for sure ?
