And still people think it's related to the Holden V series Commodore... they have about ten common parts and look vaguely similar.

And the only 'Cadillac' on/in the Catera is the badge ;D

Think all members should forget Omegas & move on to a V8 of some kind, you know it makes sense 😀😁😂

Ive had 9 of them (I think) which is quite enough thanks. After Ive finished with the current one, they can all go to the crusher as far as I'm concerned.
They are a good and under rated car, but they aren't a Bugatti Royale or Ferrari Daytona.


Yep, same here. I've given them up, but I had 4. Maintenence just to be too much of an issue, I need a practical reliable car for everyday use and for the occasional trek to South of France.

I'm not giving up my diesel estate...it's been great & I still enjoy driving it & using it for every practical purpose known.  :y
I also like the fact I'm driving something not often seen - I'm sure the Audi estates are much much better but they are everywhere & I wouldn't go for one for that reason.

No, but 70% of my motoring will be in the cooking oil car so I can afford a V8 for the other 30%. Same as now but a V6 rather than a V8 at the moment.  :y
