I did get it very cheap with a promise of I would take great care of her, the previous owner had had her since new and had just retired and brought himself a brand new insignia

Thanks..... Have a couple of minor modifications brought and ready to fit which include an upgraded grill along with smoked side repeaters and possibly will get some new alloys but with me it's a case of finding the time lol

Smoked can look OK on a dark/black car but IMHO smoked would spoil the look of yours and ordinary clear lenses work just as they are.

Very much so and the guy was very reluctant to let it go as it was his pride and joy, it's been used to living in a heated garage so i'm feeling a little guilty now it has to live outside...i was reading through the history yesterday and it has had the oil changed every 3,500 miles with the gearbox fluid every year along with the coolant, so its been very well looked after through its life.....

Thanks everyone for the comments :y

Don't put any mods on that car Nathan, it's a very nice original model and, if you ever want to sell it, original is best.

Thanks Mate, i'm only going to fit the irmischer grill and late 2003 alloys, all the original parts will however be kept in case i do sell it... but i know where your coming from with the original look

Managed to locate an irmcher grill on the german eBay site and it should be here in about a week, the guy I brought it off said the mv6 front bumper was a better way forward for myself as the charges for large items from abroad would outstrip the price of the item plus they are so rare to find these days along with all the other irmcher items for the omega...... We shall see as I'm in no rush at the moment  8-)

The guy was about to retire and he brought himself an Insignia so i guess he wanted something that was going to cost less pennys to run and maintain through his retirement..

anyway happy days for me though :y

Very True, but i prefer the sportier MV6 to be honest

Looking for a 3.2 Auto with leather :y

Title: Re: Omega 3.2 Elite
Post by VR4Dave on 17. Jun 2011 at 14:36
Stick with the elite, haven't you got something sporty already.
There's alot to be said for wafting along  :y I've had both and prefer the elite, the mv6 obviously corners alot better but if you really want a sporty car the omega ain't it.

Yes the RS is great to be honest, but i use the omega everyday to preserve the RS and i find the omega a little bit loose in the corners, dont get me wrong the Omega is a lot of things the RS is not and i love both but im now thinking about just uprating the shocks and springs and keeping it, i love the 3.2's power and the fuel is not bad at all to be honest as i do roughly £40 a week driving it carefully  :y

Why don't you just put MV6 suspension on the Elite Nathan? It's a relatively simple job.  :y
