glove box just isnt quite deep enough for my de-icer can, so it lives in the boot

door cubbies aren't wide enough to fit a 500ml drinks bottle in like they were on my corsa!

Dodgy door locks (sticking)
That compartment right by the drivers door - NEVER stayed shut
Glovebox was tiny, and the compartment above it, wouldn't stay open.

There is nothing about my omega that annoys me. Considering what you pay for them, pound for pound they are just the best value for money..bar none. They MUST be maintained properly, not cheap but well worth it.

Try driving a few other big saloons/estates, I think you'll find there are a lot more niggles with them.

Most of them - but have met a few 'honest' opinioned ones which was refreshing and very prepared to give free advice - dying breed though :y
