I have had 4 omegas . . . 2 x MFL elites 3.0 & 2.5 1 x FL elite 3.0 & the present 2.6 FL MV6
My opinion would be that my first one , the 3.0 MFL, was the best all round car , but that may be of course because I was
bitten by the omega bug with that car . The second omega was a FL 3.0 elite, my opinion of that one was it felt a lot more
of a firmer ride with a lot less "roll" & much better handling all round . But there was a rumour that the very first FL elites (
some 50 in number) were produced with LSC as per MV6 but with Air shocks
I recall that there was plenty of discussion
on here back then about this , as this car had a ride height of 660mm. Also on the V5 the car was called MV6 Elite
My 3rd was a nice MFL 2.5 elite which leaked a bit, but only went because of the deal I got the latest Black 2.6 FL MV6.
IMO I think that possibly the difference in wheel size & tyre profile 16" to 17" may cause part of this slightly "harsher"
ride . Be interesting to test a FL elite or MV6 on 16" wheels
I like the present MV6 & have now got used to the firmness which goes with the better handling .
The real downer for me on the FL models is the "soft rubber " & plastic looking finish to the interior . . . disaster
If i was ever was offered a real nice MFL 3.0 elite . . . I think I would have to have it
I can just here SWMBO saying . . . . "OH NO . . . not another one ! "
