Opel Omega 2.5L, V6 170HK!



Sensible Deelix is dead! Very Happy

Nah, its for the winter. The scandinavian term "vinterbil - winter car" Very Happy
Its really easy to turn off the TC, just push once... not that hold for 15 sec bs.
Anyway I won't sell my Toyota, because I wont ever be able to trust a Opel O.o

Anyway, with a V6 im gonna hate the gas prices even more Mad The insurance wasn't that bad tho, with bimmer it would be way higher. Or well, any popular RWD car... they don't think anyone wants to go sideways in a Opel station wagon... well they are wrong Troll Face

My first three cars were Opels, they ran in any weather or temperature - even -28C without the engine/block heater connected Very Happy My first one got to 330 thousand km before i replaced it (think it was at 270-280k when I got it), and even then it still ran fine.

Don't know how their V6's are though.

Thanks guys, its my first time ever driving a car with RWD. I know the awesome feeling because of my ATV, but driving a large long car with RWD was pretty awesome too Very Happy

That Omega V6 likes to get fuel as much as FireMaster likes to drink, so get ready to buy some gas station stocks Razz

Bumping my own thread here! Wink
You where so right, and FM should really slow down on the drinking Laughing

So far iv spent about as much on fuel as I gave for the car! Surprised
Otherwise its been a very nice ride, with few problems compared to how I drive Very Happy Very Happy

Anyways, back to the boring Toyota to save some money (the snow is gone)

As someone who works in the Canadian winter with a heavy rear wheel boat as a work car I can say winter driving in a rwd is indeed fun.... For 30 minutes..... Then it becomes insanely annoying.


Congrats and be safe Smile
