OK a review I know something about. I am on my third Omega, the one in this review is a P reg, a 2.5 litre V6 engined, CDX version, which has just given up the ghost. The car has done me proud, and the odometer now reads 175,000 miles. It has carried large object, many passengers, some very heavy loads, and been used to tow very big trailers.

I've had a P-reg 2.5V6 CDX Omega for nearly three years and by now I would normally be looking around for a replacement car. However, this car is so good and enjoyable to drive that I'll keep it for at least another year provided that it behaves itself. Faults have been few and far between and have been fixed by the Vauxhall West End quickly. They will either collect and return the car or provide a courtesy vehicle. Acceleration is excellent, the auto-box never misses a beat or finds itself in the wrong gear. Brakes are a bit soft but given a good push will stop the car in plenty of time. Petrol consumption around town is poor due ...
