After nine happy years I thought it was about time I posted some photographs of my Omega CDX here.

I bought it as an ex-demonstrator in August 2000 with just a few miles on the clock, and have now done 99,650!

The front spoiler and the lip on boot lid are both genuine Irmscher, and as far as I know were fitted by the factory. (The Irmscher lip is slightly bigger than that fitted to the Elite).

Scrubs up well doesn't it?  


I can honestly say this is the best car I have ever owned. It has been extremely reliable, and is very quiet and smooth. It also has a good turn of speed when required, (not that I would condone speeding on the public highway), and pulls like an electric train up long hills. I don't use the car every day, but when I do, I tend to cover long distances, so I appreciate the smooth power.


Sadly, I have been unfaithful to the old girl recently, (I have fallen for a young feline with a bigger engine), so I fear divorce proceedings are inevitable in the near future.

In the nine years I have owned this car I don't think I have seen another front spoiler like it. From what I have been told, I gather they cost about £650 plus VAT and fitting, which might explain why there are not too many around.

At that price methinks it might be worth taking a mould from.

Hi Monza,
I would love to keep it, but like any car it needs to be used, or at least properly mothballed.

I haven't made a final decision yet, but the new feline should be here soon (after three weeks I'm still waiting for DVLA to transfer the number plates ), so I will see how I get on with her. Cats can be tempermental beasts, and they have sharp claws, so it could yet be a very short affair.

I have seen quite a few of your bumpers on the continent,
and like the other type with round spotlights, they retailed for over  £500.
You`re right about the mould though............

I have just got around to processing a few more photos in Photoshop (I always shoot RAW), so I am adding these now. For some reason the carpets and mats look rather pink in these photographs, but I can confirm they really are grey!

















And finally, the business end of things.

One sweet looking car Nigel.

[HI2DVY]

Looks pristine mate. Well done, lovely car.

[going crazy]
