As I've just bought my second Omega Estate (Elite Auto 2.6 2002) thought I'd better join OOF. In my opinion this is a superb marque that in some respects exceeds the spec of the later models. The 4ft 1" wide tail gate clearance is especially useful. I have tested the Insignia estate and think this more of a sports car with its letterbox 3ft 3" opening at rear. (Golf clubs?) The Omega drive is excellent and suits my profession as a nationwide traditional sign writer. Half a ton of scaffolding, paint and equipment can be transported effortlessly and 30 plus mpg on long runs ain't bad for a fully loaded small lorry! Sorry, your verification letters are poor; you do need to know which case to use and avoid ambiguous characters (those which might be from either case; or a numeral. All the best, Gadge 9122
