I find the 2.5 sluggish,dread to think what the 4 pots are like.

I have to agree with general opinion here, I really wish I'd got a V6, next one will be.

  Come take mine for a spin....160k miles and still pulls like a manc bird in Ibiza.

Had an X reg 2.0 CD auto and never thought it was that slow to be honest. Fuel consumption was respectable at 38-39mpg on a run and around 26-27mpg to and from work.

Our 2.6 has alot more go though, sounds beautiful and shifts hard in Sports Mode.

When I had the 2.0, petrol was around £1.10-£1.17 a litre, now its down at 89p a litre the V6 is actually cheaper for me to run than the 2.0 was, so no grumbles there.

Cant beat the smoothness and sound of a good V6, but for normal everyday use I thought our 2.0 was more than adequate in all respects.

Mine pulls well enough for what it is,its just that 165bhp in a car as heavy as an Omega is never really going to be exciting imo.

Ahhhh with you now.

But too be fair the poor old Omega (MV6 aside maybe) wasnt really designed too be exciting was it..
