You're right, I should've used past tense.
Most likely the only country that popularised that car. For instance, in my country omega's are quite expensive yet underrated.

Last of big saloon cars that were affordable and rear wheel drive. Everything became front wheel drive.

In your country how do they rate pricewise against say a BMW

you can buy two omega's in decent shape for one bmw 5 series same age

by decent shape I mean it runs, certainly not a beauty but it takes you everywhere.
