Nearly, they were featured on Omega Elite, MV6 & Sport from MY2002. They were NEVER fitted to vectras as standard, though the vectra ones are VERY similar.....are these the ones you mean?....

.....and i'm guessing the omega makes a great taxi. There's still 7 or 8 or so in York.

They weren't a big selling car really, not many people wanted to pay 20-25k for a vauxhall when they could have had a BMW or merc, admittedly a crap one!

Nick, i'll say again, your motor looks the absolute business in that spec, and my favourite colour, exactly the same look as another member 'Kevin Wood'.......and what other taxi's do you see around that look that good after nearly 150k!?! Lagunas, 406's, mercs, toyota's, they all look crap and tatty. There's one silver facelift 2.2DTi in York that had about 330k on it when I last saw months ago, still see it around, still looks superb!

A credit to you mate  :y.....oh, and omega wheels nicer  ;)
