Not especially,Gave us £1600 for our 2003 cd Omega with 45k on the clock,and managed to get two new front tyres and some paintwork rectification out of them.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Not realy,just a moment of madness.

What was the dealer like?

As they all are,treat you like best friends when you are buying,but if they see you when you take the car back for warranty work,they pretend they dont know you.

What's it like to drive?

It is o/k i suppose,plenty of power,and it needs plenty of fuel as well,we thought being a diesel it would have been more economical,very dissapointed.

The usual with these particulate filter,and the EGR valve no doubt will be next,this problem nearly caused my wife to be in a collision on the day the car suddenly lost power at a roundabout,very nasty.

What's most practical about your car?

nothing realy,there is only two of us.but it is handy for moving large objects,(but so is a transit van and just as good to drive)

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Nothing that the omega did not have.
