Hi to all on the forum.

I live in Fraserburgh, Aberdeenshire (otherwise known as "The Broch").

2nd Omega for me (I must be mad!) I have just swapped my totally boring (but perfectly functional) Mondeo for a 2.5ltr V6 CDX (X reg) having once previously owned a 2.0Ltr GLS.
The Mrs always said she preferred the old Omega so...

Was always a VX man in the past, having had loads of Cavvies, an Astra, Vectra etc. never really liked the Ford so it was easy enough to part with it (after only 9 months).

Expect to see me post on the problems bit (hopefully not too much though lol!).

cheers,

Brian.

Its a dark blue 2.5 V6 CDX Auto - sounds great but you seem to need to stamp on the pedal to get it to really shift. I did see a black 3ltr Manual MV6 for sale in Aberdeen but was a bit concerned about the possible petrol consumption seeing as how I commute 40 miles each day. Shame really as it looked awesome.

Will be happy enough with my 2.5 once I get used to the quirky heating controls lol!
