Thermostat, incl O rings and transfer pipe
Spark plugs - 6 off

Well, here's a starter. I've got some of the part numbers to hand, as it happens:

Spark Plugs 9195868 x 6
Oil Filter 9192425
Pollen Filter 93165208
Aux Belt 93181720
Cam belt kit  (Depends on engine number - VX prices not competitive)
10w40 Semi Synthetic oil (6 litres required - deal on 20 litres if you've got a trade club card)
Long Life coolant (pink) 5 litres required
Water Pump
Thermostat
Coolant transfer pipe.

All I can think of at the moment :-/

Didn't James give you a shopping list?

I would be doing the fuel filter too if we're doing a full service.  I'd also change the door check strap bushes on any new Omega.

Sump plug oring - maybe just get a spare plug in case the original is knackered.

Aux. Belt tensioner pulley was also reported as being noisy. Might be possible to re-grease depending on condition but as you've got a long journey ahead I'd just replace it.

A can of carb cleaner to clean out the breathers is always a good idea.

if your getting all this from a dealer i would strongly advise getting a trade club card from "autobahn stormers" car club, its £20 and a couple of days in the post. Show the vx parts man the card at a participating dealer and it will give you access to trade prices, a considerable saving on retail, esp if your buying that little lot.

If you PM your shopping list to Andy C he may be able to give you trade club prices.

Di - I said I'd get you a full list of parts I need to sort your car by lunchime and send it via PM - which I have done - no need to confuse yourself by asking other people for lists on here

Chill

she is making a free advertisement , good idea imho

[guncharmer]

I am not going to say you might as well do the camcover gaskets as a precaution whilst you have it all in bits.

[JamesV6CDX]

I think the idea is to work to a tight budget, hopefully ensuring the breathers are clean will be enough of a preventative measure on that score

Anyway, if ever the CC gaskets failed later down the line, it wouldn't take me 5 mins to pop some more on there 

[guncharmer]

Only jesting of course,if i ever move house i think i want to live near you.
