tv wont work when moving, unless its been tweeked, and the reception is an issue.

But you'll be back when the estate agents dont know whats wrong with it ;)
On that age, TV will be analogue, thus won't work. Ever ;)

Hey, I went there too. After 35k mls in an E39 wagon I can say it's a lot faster. but only 2mpg better. Different bits fall off. Parts are more readily available in Ireland, miss the sunroof.
Pity Opel/Vaux didn't do the common rail 2.5 with a strong autobox.

Thanks for your good wishes.  Have to say though, after a weeks worth of ownership, I'm staggered how good the BM is...to be honest, in just about every detail against the Omega...and I've loved both those that I've had.

Pulling only 2500rpm at between 80 and 90 is a HUGE bonus in the quietness and fuel consumption department. The overall high build quality has come as quite a surprise.

Duggs, I have to agree with all of your comments. I have the 525i touring and it is a fantastic car.
I still intend to keep the Omega as long as possible. I suspect it has another year or two left in it :y :)
