The omega was (is) a lovely car and I am bitterly disappointed not to still be driving it,  I now own another marque and although it is one I have always aspired to, it is not the same driving please as the meega!
Your new car looked nice enough, good condition etc. I've been in a few of those, and I do like them, though not sure I would want one myself...

...and at least the dealer is likely to be better ;)

I doubt it, these mechnics tend to come from the same box......you only get any general improvement when you get a reasonable service manager

Mark - I'm sure there's some Tech2 work you need doing on it. Strangely enough, I may need your help with something on my MV6 ;)
To give you a clue what I'm gonna probably need a hand with...  ...you will need a bloody big torque wrench, and will need weetabix for breakie....

NO! The car has definately NOT been neglected!  Just reliant on professional tradesman to do the work on it!  Don't confuse lack of ability to work on it myself with lack of care or neglect!
Been 'maintained' by my favourite, scumbag, lying dealer, who I will not mention for fear of getting banned by LB66  :P

Try and ban Jaime - he'll just unistall the site :o

No, I think its front (slight rumble on right hand bends, plus a little play (tiny).  Worth changing in pairs?

Transponder, thats no prob, but you will need carpass for PIN.
