Just had an email from Haynes ref the manual for the facelift Omega, i enquired as to why a manual was never published.......Answer from them....."We only publish a manual if that particular vehicle has sales over 50,000, at presant the Omega has only sold 34,993 to date.

The issue has been looked at by Haynes and we have decided that as the Omega is no longer in production the manual will not be persued.

That makes sense..  Autodata had used to do a similar kinda manual, but, the Granada MKII one that I was miles better than Haynes...  To be fair though, having them both went hand in hand...

Sadly Autodata, don't do any individual manuals anymore :'( :'( :'(

The temperature has dropped as we speak, in fact a few V6 migs must have been tanking around as it has been bloody cold here last few days.  ;D ;D ;D
