Import?

My suspicions too...

If it is, then it could only have come from as far as the other side of the Irish Sea, no other country sells Opels with the steering wheel on the right. But there are various Vx Omegas knocking about the forum with Opel & even Holden badges on them.

It could well be an Irish Import as looking through this ; http://www.senatorman.de/opel_omega_b.htm
there is no Opel facelift model with Prodrive or tailgate spoiler although the Vauxhall model is shown in all it's glory.
Has been a wealthy first owner though as road tax is exorbitant over here and the high initial cost of Omegas , due to 33% tax , made estates prohibitivly expensive and similar prices to high end Audi's and BMW's.
If it is Irish then check and then check again the service history as sellers laugh at you if you ask for it.........Not an Irish thing I'm afraid  ::)

I would not see that as a problem, my Jeep is Irish, complete with Irish reg number, which is worth a few quid..... :y

Leather was standard on the 3.2's however it wasn't compulsory  :y.

To be honest I am not a lover of leather, thought nice in the Jeep; That may not be a true English MV6 he admits to updating the wheels,it suits me, still working on this with swmbo, I like that, tbo if that was on the door step it would be on my drive tomorrow...going to look at one tomorrow that is twice the price I would pay, but I know they have had it for sale for at least a year, up at 2k for a 2.2..... :o :o
