Title: Hello Omega peeps.
Post by seamusmcmad on 10. May 2008 at 22:44

Hi everyone. Just bought my first Omega. Its a 2001 elite 2.5 V6 jobbie. Manual box with leather and all the toys. Must say its the smoothest car i've ever had and been 40 i've had a few. Only paid 2k for it too, with 96k on clock, full dealer service history and 12mnths mot....oh, and a new cam belt last year. Needed 4 tyres though, but all in all very happy. What do you guys get from a full tank of juice? just wondering as i put in £75 and will be looking at around 400miles!! is that right? Thing is i had a diesel passat and am used to getting 600-650 mile to a full tank. :-/

Hello and a warm welcome to you! :y

As for mpg is does depend of course of how heavy footed you are, and what average speeds you cruise at. Mine on motorways is 100+ so mpg can be as low as 22 with my love of heavy accelaration. ;)
