Handsome old things, Omegas. Such a shame there's so few left

[@EGMedia1]

Imagine they were all driven into the high-mileage stratosphere...

[@woodrow_mayes]

In NI they suffer from the "diff shed tax" : c

[@kenharding8437]

I have three 3.2 Omegas, remapped, brake upgrades and lowered suspension.....nothing else needed to make them a pleasure to own and drive.

[@MINIMOTOMADNESS]

had an r reg 2.5 v6 it rocked

[@EGMedia1]

That's the one to have apparently

[@neilmckay8649]

Your comments about being the base model and a big car does remind me of, during the 1980s at least, my suspicion that some car buys would rather buy a base model large car rather than a higher spec'd smaller model. I remember checking out all the new cars in my street come 1 August 😁

Loved this clip, thanks for posting. I know that road well and its an amazing drive! I have an Omega 3.2 elite which is still going strong.

[@daveygeordie]

Nice. This is my old car! Good to see her in a video. Cheers

One of the most underrated saloons of the past 30 years. Loved the old Carlton CDX too. So capable point to point. This or an E39 are my favourite 90s barges

[@daz2.058]

[@victor3267]

One of Vauxhall’s best models, I had 3 ,and all were great ,had my last one a 2.2 dti CDX. for over 9 years

[@strictlyyoutube6881]

your personality is very amusing, subbed

[@gabrielpaulus8799]

I own one since 2010, a 2.6 v6 and i will never sell it. Very smooth cruiser.

Dear Lord, the heart of a mouse trapped in an elephant.

[@maviteras4555]

Opel Omega and Nisaan Maxima and Rover 75 vs please

[@DethThrasher1]

Very nice review are you making any more soon?

[@EGMedia1]

Thanks! There is a special coming for Christmas, but we're taking a break for now...

[@shannalog]

Take my 3.2 elite out for a spin and do a running commentary on it

[@Sid3300]

This car is currently on Ebay

[@danielwalker2613]

How tall are you ? ..... The car looks massive and you look so tiny in the drivers seat

[@EGMedia1]

About 6ft. The seats are massive, in the rear too.
