Newbie Welcome Area / Hi to all

« on: 08 July 2007, 19:45:10 »

Hi to all those Omega owners out there!
At the moment I run a Granada Scorpio, but don't get offended, I'm looking hard for a good TDi Elite Estate so hopefully I will soon have the correct credentials for the forum    Anyway until I find one my rather wet Scorpio (I live in Rotherham - Monsoon capitol of England) is sitting rather poorly on the drive and i am getting around in my mates kindly loaned to me Nissan Almera!  Believe me I'm grateful for the loan as it means I can get about to look for the legendary Omega Tractor, but I will be Soooooooooo glad to get into something luxurious again! Economy isn't Everything!  
Anyway glad to meet you all after seeing so many of your valuable posts and deciding on the Omega to replace my Scorp, hope I get one soon!
Regards....Bigal

Newbie Welcome Area / Thanks for the welcome!

Hi again, and thanks for the warm welcome, need all the warmth we can get in Rotherham hehehe
Anyway hope some of you owners can help me, I'm getting confused with mates telling me about different models and such!
The thing is I would love to own an Omega, but I would also like to be able to go further than I did in my Scorpio, mileage wise I mean!

Now I have mates telling me that the DTi is much worse than the TDi :-/ and that the diesels in the Omega's are poor units, others are telling me that they are okay so long as its the 2.5 and so on. To be honest I thought I knew what I wanted and it was all simple, I wanted an Omega Elite Diesel, didn't realise there were variants and good or bad ones, so if you can help with any advice for a Vauxhall Virgin ( apart from a VX490 about 25 years ago ) then I would be all ears.

BTW I wanted an Elite for Memory Seats, Air Con and Cruise Control above all else, but none of the other goodies would go unappreciated, and since test driving an Omega I think I'm in love again, just like when I first tried a Scorpio, but with even more toys, I didn't think it was possible. 8-)

So like I said, any advice will be eagerly awaited, after all if you guys don't know whats best!

Thanks again for the welcome and in advance for the advice.............BigAl
