[feeutfo]

Usually ncdc 2013 or 2015, both have nav, 15 has telematics as well.

my early facelift elite has ccr2006 as well

Sat Nav was a cost option, even on the Elite

...

Not on a 3.0 it wasn't 

Facelift car! 

The F/L 3.0 didn't have Nav as standard. 

The F/L 3.0 did have it as standard, except *very* early ones. All 3.2 had it. Those facelifts not having the satnav had ccr2006.


Later Elites (2002 on) lost the rear blind.

My mates W plate 3.0 Elite has the ccr2006 and I erroneously thought that was 'standard' fit until they changed to the 3.2.  As usual, I was wrong 

Touché Andy, Touché!

It's not the parts that make the Elite, it's the sum of the parts, what they do, the way they make you feel, the driving experience and more.

From serenely cruising at 30 around tow, or unstressed cruising at 120 mph on the motorway throughout the night. Then there's the lovely smooth and responsive autobox, the kickdown and the surge of power, the amazing handling for such a big car, that grips and grips then lets go progressively.

The comfort, the clarity of the sound system, the heat of the seats.

Omegas RULE!

I agree with most of your post, but the Elite handling is nothing better than awful.  More comfortable than an equivilent 5 series or E class, but handling is poor in comparison.

Chuck some Bilstein Shocks and Eibach Springs on and you have comparable ride and handling to both aforementioned cars.

Ah yes, but the Omega excels in one area, comfort, the rest is a compromise. I prefer my Elites handling to my MV6. The only thing i don't like is, is that it thuds more on bumps and holes.

Omegas RULE!
