    My car

    Had this car nearly 8 years, bought it new in 2003, it has been superb, has every "extra" as standard, is good to drive and very comfortable on a long journey.Nothing has gone wrong apart from central locking motor,a common fault, and easy to replace. I really like the Insignia,and was considering a new one, but i cannot bring myself to part with my faithful old friend, the omega.

    My car

    I have had my 1996 2.016v cd auto for 6 years now and its on 181,000 miles. Reluctant to sell it as its not worth anything now but is still in good nick. Has never let me down although has failed MOT last two years on minor things. On a run get around 35mpg but around town averaqe about 20mpg. I'm sure it used to be better than this. Any ideas on how to improve this as i'm quite attached to the old girl now.

    My car

    My second Omega is a 52 plate,ex Vauxhall car. I bought it one year old at 7,000 miles and has now reached 87,000. It has leather seats which may account for it being noisier than my previous 2.5 CD which had velour. Or it oculd be somebody mistakenly thinking a sportier noise would be better - or just less soundproofing. A relaxing comfortable drive; with good handling and speed when required. Reasonable costs. Only problem - what to buy next?

    My car

    I owned one of these for about a year and had alot of trouble with it. The auto gearbox had a fault the day I picked it up from the dealer and was replaced at a cost of £1600 ( luckily under warranty). Then I had camshaft sensor faults 3 times £120 each and airbag fault ( steering airbag went off accidentally ) £250 to replace. Got fed up and got rid ( luckily before road tax changes) and bought a Scorpio instead. Alot cheaper for parts and more toys for less money.
