Excellent, glad to hear it buddy.

Don't look at the mpg when about town though, it'd bring a tear to a glass eye!

LOL I didnt buy it for fuel economy, big comfy cruiser, worlds apart from my 200sx which is built for sheer speed and drift.
On another note im so glad I didnt go after the one I looked at last nite now, this one is so much better in so many ways.

God I sound sad lol

Can I recomend you check when the cam belt AND tensioners were last done. This need to be done every 40K miles else if the belt breaks, or the tensioners fail, the valves hit the pistons, and it gets expensive. However if its OK, and the car is regularly serviced, she will last for many miles. Someone was recently talking about his with 250,000 miles on the clock.  :y :y

Enjoy  ;D

Welcome to Omega ownership Simon, I will keep an eye out for you as I am just down the road in Twyford. :)

Seems like a good car, and a very good price! If you need any parts let me know  (by PM), I have a TC card.

Not bad atall mate to be honest, better than I thought it may be.
The back bumper has cosmetic damage from what looks to be a very light shunt, no bent metal behind it and the rear towing eye cover seems to have departed on the way home :( (it was loose when we went to collect the car last night.)
Just sorted out the inurance and rent for it so its now all ready to roll.
Its got a busy day ahead as the missus wants to go shopping, she likes the look of the car but as yet hasnt been in it.

Just need to spend some time working out what button does what, a couple of them have rubbed down a bit, there is one to the left of the traction control button that ive no idea what its for lol
