Seen the car today and the spoiler is the least of the problems with it  it's staying where it is in Cheshire . Just got to drive 120miles back.

Just arrived home and the 2.2 went brilliantly crunching up the miles with ease...

2.2 will sit at 80mph alllllll day long, cruise on its great place to be. It makes less noise at 80 than my 3.2.....

and a tad orver that on private roads    MPG wasn't bad either.
The 2.6 i saw today would have been a money pit.

The dealer was slightly amused that an "02" Silver Omega potential buyer came to see another "02" silver Omega

If you are going to change, go the whole hog and get a 3.2

Very true , And I have been trying to find a decent 3.2 which hasn't been abused too badly and isn't ridiculously priced.. Oh well looks like the hunt goes on...


For a "Personal" laugh i asked how much would you PX my Omega for his then he was talking a load of rubbish like I could pick one of these up at "Trade" he kept saying for around £200-£500 (which is true but it probably wouldn't be as good as mine and little does he know i paid £200 for it 3 years ago) but seen as yours is a very clean I'll take it in at £600.... And he is asking £1,295 for his with more miles on the clock with many things not working on the car.

I'd say that's fair enough, seen an immaculate 2003, 2.6 Elite with less than 75K Miles go through the auctions for less than £1K, It's now up for sale by a private seller for £1.9K. Ultimately he's in business to make money.

Aye I don't have a problem with that and would have taken the offer if the 2.6 was as good as he made it sound/look. A youngish lad around 30-37 I'd say lived next to a mental institute / old peoples home manure or something wasn't too clear wht he said the building is. Kept his cars for sale there which also sounded a bit odd. And I did check and it does genuinely look like it never had a spoiler the boot looked like the original.

And in the 270 or so miles I didn't see one Omega on the road.

Ah a shame its out of my budget. Shame about the bumper I'd have thought it would be hard to get a front bumper in that colour and something wrong with the satnav. But low'ish milage.

Could be a problem with the seat?!

If Sat Nav it will be the usual laser focusing problem on the Nav drive.

If I were you i'd spend money on LPG'ing your 2.2 instead, makes them dirt cheap to run. Easily an "effective" 50mpg

There's a 3.2 MV6 on LPG on evil bay at the moment. However, I think i'd sooner buy a car, get it running how I want it then LPG it myself with the help of people on here.
