    Good Points: Comfortable, smooth, roomy, with lots of grunt (well, the first one did have)!


    Bad Points: Watch out for the welshman selling a fantastic looking omega, knowing full well that the head gasket was on its way out!


    General comments: We purchased our first 2.5 V6 CDX Omega estate for £900.00. It was a stop gap car but it impressed us so much! It was a bit neglected but ran well and was so comfortable, having full leather and every extra imaginable.
    Unfortunately after 18 months it wasn't well and we decided to look for another one.
    Well, we found one the same with less miles and it was stunning looking too. It didn't have the leather but was still nice.
    The one thing we noticed after picking it up was that it wasn't quite as powerful as our previous car and that slowly go worse!
    That and having to constantly fill it up with water gave me a few clues as to the problem.
    I now have the dilema of paying out to have the head gasket done or buying a new engine at the cost of £1500.00.
    The car cost £1750.00 but if I try to sell it as it is it will be worth nothing.
    I believe its rare for this to happen and all the reviews I read about these cars are good.
    I suppose its the new engine!
    The only other thing wrong with it is that when it rains the passenger side carpets get wet and when its heavy we get a puddle!
    Despite all of this, I love these cars. they are perfect for the family and when they go well, they go well!

    This is my 2nd Omega estate, my 1st was a 98 (s)CDX 2.5. I only kept it for about 2 months. It had oil cooler failure so was returned to the place it was bought from, but despite its problems it had found a place in my heart, the only problem was now where could I get another one. 2 days later I found a 99(t) on a forecourt as a trade in, it was bright red, not my first choice of colour,(the CDX was dark grey). This was a 2.5 CD auto, the first drive convinced me that there was more wrong with t ...

    My Vauxhall Omega is very nice. I've got a 2.2DTi ELITE fully loaded. Irs great on fuel on the motorway, averages about 45 mpg but around town about 27 mpg, but it's really a great car. I would recommend to every one. Its got real poke for a diesel and its soooooo.... quiet and smooth its unbeliveable...!! plus its got stunning looks its such an executive car...!!

    I have the Vauxhall Omega 2.6CDX auto estate. The car is very comfortable, eats long journeys (you have to stop for fuel well before you get uncomfortable). The amount of space and comfort is great. This is my 2nd Omega, and I would really recommend them if you want loads of room and comfort for the money. You get loads of toys as standard, and they're pretty bullet proof. I did 180k in my last one, with no major repairs required.

    The ride quality is superb - almost BMW 5 series standard, and ...

    The Vauxhall Omega 2.5 CD Estate car has much to commend it for the family man who doesn't care for MPV's. The V6 versions are the best for performance with economy as the 2.0 litre versions are a little short on grunt. Air con, computer, abs, heated seats and more means that the Omega is well specified, all this and that huge boot as well.
