Changed timing belt and tensioner as a safety precaution when the car was bought and had it tuned.
The steering tie rods have began knocking and will be changed soon.
The transmission's rear seal is looking a bit moist and will be changed before any catastrophic failure.
The car has a lot of space in the cabin as well as the boot.
Seat fabric is plush and very comfortable with varying adjustments to suit each driver and front passenger.
Silky smooth and aggressive power delivery while still maintaining its "civility" (and this is only the 2.0L engine).
The larger engine models were not imported into this country, but the car is loaded with features as standard, which would be considered options on other brands.
I own a 1998 Omega 2.5 V6 CD and it is a good car. It is fairly rapid (for a car that weighs a lot), but unfortunately the brakes let it down. I had new disc's and pad fitted 1000 miles ago, but it still takes a while to haul itself to a stop. The interior, even though it is soft and comfortable, is hard wearing. I have put 112000 miles on it and it looks (once it has been cleaned) like new. The only thing that doesn't work is the outside thermometer, which a real pain, as everything else is fine. My alternator is starting to whine a bit, but that is only expected by the mileage.
But overall, I love it, especially as its arches are big enough to hold my 19's with out scrubbing and its lowered by 40mm.
