The question is?
« on: 12 February 2009, 20:32:48 »
As the mighty Omega grows old very gracefully is the Signum good enough to be the new Omega?

Difficult to replace the old Omega  :(. The Signum is FWD and the only car Vauxhall make  RWD is the Monaro. So i agree No but maybe the Monaro :-/

Wrong wheel drive. The Mig is a one off. No other car will ever have the character, presence & feel. Simple as. :o

Kind of makes me think of the Rover P6. Rover never made anything after it that had the same presence......, there was just something about it...  imho.

It will be very difficult to replace the Omega. Unable to think of any car that Vauxhall make to replace it with. I just wish like the Monaro, Vauxhall would import the Commodore from Australia to fill the gap as they come in different engine sizes and an estate as well. Also they are rear wheel drive and you can get a neverending list of options as well :y

depends on the context used. Im slim, but take offence to getting called skinny. like text messages forum messages can be easily mis-read and seem totally out of context to the reader.

I personally dont believe in making any personal comments about anyone regardless of their age, sex, race, or sexual preference.

Good idea that - with double rustproofing !...lol
Senator was the closest thing stylewise in uk to the 1994 Chevy Impala.
A sort of small version, but the Senator B came out first, sveral years before.

Back in the days of the Cresta and Viscount uk cars were trying to clone USA styling.
With the Senator B we had the good styling first - one up for the UK...
