You wont make a mistake if you put more powerful battery in the car, just do't put anything under 60Ah

I would personally, only fit a 70Ah battery to any Omega.

Also think the 3.2 V6 one is also wrong as discussed in a recent thread

I'll modify that, I wouldn't fit anything less than a 70Ah battery to an Omega.

Just checked ours (2.0) and it has a 50Ah (540A EN) 'Bosch Silver' battery, and has had since we've owned it.

Never had any electrical problems.  My conclusion, it really ain't that critical what the Ah capacity is, as long as the alternator is working correctly.
