@koszykasznbaxx ja też mam omegę z 2000r jest trochę rdzy ale nie więcej niż w innych samochodach z tego rocznika. Omega to kawał solidnego i niedocenianego samochodu.

@Dog328 Actually the reason I posted my comment was because the ENCAP's website gave the car only 3 stars because the white model they tested did not have side airbags. They later tested another Omega with site airbags (red) which then got 4 stars. They wrote that on their website also. Just wanted to point that out.

@Perplexer1 1st, I owned several ones, and secondly, how can you see whever there is aside airbag or not when the shot was taken from the back? In the red one you can see it only inflates to the front to support the hip of the driver.

Also if you look closely, you notice the chrome badge on the front-left rimcover, those also only where used 1997 onwards, so did the full polstered headrests (those on pre '97 had a hole in it) and the LED 3rd brakelight in the rear window.

@Dog328 No! Omega B models after 1997 have side airbags fitted as standard. The white model in this video does not have side airbags so it is an earlier model. Read more about Omega B history at the awesome site senatorman.de

@Perplexer1 No, its a 1998 too, just the base (GL) modell, you can see it because of the crome badges on the back, and on the rimcovers, the red one is a CD modell.

[Perplexer1]

The red one is 1998 model, the white one is 1994 (without side airbags).
