I'm after either of these car and whilst I'm aware of the kit that comes with the Elite models, I'm totally unaware of what the spec list of the MV6.
Are they a 'hot' version of the Omega?
Well the MV6s have the same engines as other Omegas. As far as I'm aware the only difference in the mechanics and driving experience is the suspension and handling. My MV6 is alot firmer than my Elite, but still comfortable. I can still throw the Elite round though and it copes well. It's not so good on undulating dual carriageways at 80+, it seems to bounce alot.
I always thought leather was an option on the elite.
Having said that about the suspension, given the choice i'd rather have the Elite, even though i agree it is abit boaty. Despite it being auto and allegedly slower than a manual, i still prefer driving it.
I have checked both multi rams on both cars, both working OK, but when the Elite hits 4100 rpm it's off like shit off a shovel, whereas the power delivery in the mv6 doesn't seem as good. i know that shouldn't be the case as the engines are the same though.
I once read somewhere that the MV6 was for people who wanted the performance of the Elite without the toys (and expense) of the Elite. I don't think the MV6 was much cheaper though.
