Good Points: Excellent air con, not a guzzler on fuel, electric sun shade in the rear to keep the sun off the kids, displays show how you are doing on fuel, temp outside, MPG and loads more at the click of a button.
Bad Points: If the exhaust goes you will be unable to ever get back the purr that the engine had before, like all vauxhalls condesation on the windscreen in the mornings is a problem.
General comments: I bought my Vauxhall Omega 2.0 CDX Auto Family Car two years ago and have found this to be the best car out of the six I have had since driving, it was a fantastic drive to devon when I first got it, as the outside temp was 30 degrees celsius and I had air con going with three kids the misses and the mother with me driving all comfartable in the car whilst everyone around was sweating like mad, there is so much room in the car it makes it comfortable to drive anywhere, my golf clubs stay in the back with my trolley and shoes yet there is still room for the shopping or the bits bought by the misses when out, when I went to get the car a friend drove it back and I was worried there was something wrong with the car, as he was all over the motorway, it turned out my mate was trying all the gadgets in the car and enjoyed the ride home - not a bad comment from a man who drives a boxster, kids love the car as its comfortable even with a childs seat in the back, so Im sorry if you bought a dud car as they are not all duds, a friend of mine just bought a GLS version as he had a go with mine and really liked what he saw.

Bought my Vauxhall Omega 2.0 CDX Auto 98 model with 43k on the clock. Problems from the word go with electrics, engine and gearbox. Windows that open and close on their own! Sunroof doesn't always close (or open for that matter) - useful when it starts raining, dashboard display with half the letters missing, passenger door central locking doesn't work and all this within 50 miles of driving it away.
Engine is very noisy in all situations and has a distinct lack of power. Drinks fuel. Gearbox ...
