Title: Our German Friends..
Post by: P6UL K on 10 April 2011, 21:51:40
Does anyone have any ideas which users are from Germany on OOF?

I believe the Opel Omegas had a few bolt-on differences to the UK spec Omegas and i wouldn't mind tracking a few of them down... Electric folding mirrors for starters i believe?

Vauxhall Omega only has peculiar location for steering wheel, it's on the passangers side  :-X Sorry, could not resist.

What I have seen and come up with are the folding mirrors (which you really do not need, the overall width of the car is reduced only an inch or so, bulky mirrors in Omega and they were NOT designed to be folding) and the latest version of 6-cylinder diesel. I think that Vauxhall had only the 2,2 diesel for latest models or how was it?

Most of the equipment have been either standard or available for extra price. Some setups, as is the automatic daylights, are applicable to Vauxhall also, just need to add a fuse and a relay.  :y
