Sorry just deleted my post because this is a diesel.  No help from me I'm afraid.

From one taxi driver to another a bit less right foot :y

I also have an Omega 2.2 DTI saloon and if i do a lot of town work it does drop to around 31/32 and my father a taxi driver also drives an omega 2.2 DTI and he gets about the same so i would say your car is fine but make sure you change the oil a lot more than the 20000 mile service that cars are ment to have.  :)

Also my last omega DTI had 237000 miles when i sold it on and that also was doing the same MPG.
