£49,000.

.....at £25,000-£28,000 it would make sense.

Thats cheap as chips if you compare it to a similar spec'd estate car, like a really expensive skoda for instance

A grand to get it ordered, then five months to figure out how to raise the other £48,500

Bergin

Just do a bit of cabbing a few nights a week....sorted 

And take the scenic route, eh Dave?

That'll help, Steve

If I start earning that sort of cash, then I fear Mothers mortgage will be top of the list

Wouldn't rule out a second hand saloon for a Saturday night special

Probably as economical as your brickvan in the grand scheme of things

your right there but happy days got a renault trafic coming tomorrow or have i shot myself in the foot must be able to get more than 17mpg

Top omega was £30k new wasnt it 

Yep. But I don't believe that anyone (in their right mind) paid that much.

Anything more than the £28,000-£30,000 mentioned and you open the door to some pretty tasty machinery.

A Vauxhall should be 'good value'..........at almost fifty grand it loses that advantage.

Tis nice though.

looks a little like the vectra vrx saw a very nice one the other day sounded great too estate of course

"At last, a TRUE Omega Estate replacement!"

I actually got very excited then, expecting a HUGE powerful estate. Hmmmm . . . not so huge.

If someone came up with a modern Omega sized car, in terms of rear load area without stupid angled rear doors etc, I'd buy one. today ( errr. . . . . . not at £49k though). I don't really care about "fast", just some decent grunt and big carrying ability.

I'm seriously beginning to think about my next car, and a new shape 2.3 Mondeo Estate is looking like a front runner

 In my humble opinion £49,000 is crazy money for a mere Vauxhall.......having said that The Lotus Carlton cost £48,000 way back in 1990.

I bought a house that year.......a three bed semi with a garage. Cost £41,000.

Yes,but was the equivalent of a supercar back then,170+mph top end

That's where you went wrong Mr Opti

If you only spent £21k on a house, you would've had £20k for a nice mint Carlton and change for a Monaro daily driver

Hindsight and all that

You're right. I was never the sharpest tool in the box.

Yes, Henry. The LC was/is iconic.
