I do like those good old Omega's. My dad used to have one. Shame though you'll be getting new rims for it, the old ones (as far as I can see them) look very good on the car. But who am I to judge. Enjoy your RWD 6-cilinder. Not many cars that offer that level of comfort for that kind of money at the moment!

yes :) but now only 170 Hp :? but is not to expensive for Tax and insurance and, the repair costs are low ^^

I have one repair on the Vectra and was 5000 bucks (€uro) ...hmm i dont know the word in english :oops: .. German word is Steuerkette.

The motor was not damaged only the repair kit from that part was so expensive :(

@conan .. it was not too bad.. in 2nd gear you hear the tyres screaming but it goes fast forward (i hope that was the right words ^^ )

You have to try take your hands off the wheel on the Vectra.

Or if you want a different way of excitement on the Vectra OPC. You have to dump the clutch on the corner.
