Didn't know the caravan was on when towing it with a Range Rover  

Couldn't you see it in your mirrors?

I must admit I did not stick to the 60mph rule towing the caravan, I towed at 70 but still never had a Snake

Only snake I had was at about 40 while I was overtaking a lorry off a roundabout and someone came up the inside I had to swerve and a short snake started.

Loading was fine, so next services I adjusted the stabiliser, it had worked loose (2nd trip and cheap stabiliser)

Haven't had a problem since

With preemptive maintenence, like any car, Omega tends to be reliable.  If you dealer service it every 20k as per the book, well, it will likely cause you trouble.

On the V6, keep to regular oil changes and coolant every couple of years (at 50:50 mix), and ensure the breathers are clear.

The achilles heal seems to be crank sensor - I tend to carry a spare in the car if going any distance.
