I'm really struggling with the main car, While I like the exterior styling of the various Jag's I'm not overly struck with the interior as it reminds me of the mid 80's when all electrical goods went from black to tacky silver (nb. how most electrical goods are now black again!). The other thought is a 5 series but the only shape I like is the E60 meaning it would have to be a late one to be a worthwhile replacement (in terms of youth) from the Omega.

The second car is slightly easier, Triumph Stag, Rover SD1 Vitesse (with some suitable 'upgrades') or if in budget a Lotus Carlton (without rust!)

Saw a beautiful red 'S' reg Stag (1977/78) yesterday. Complete with factory fitted hardtop.

It looked great and sounded even better. No idea if it was fitted with the original 3 litre V8 or Rover 3.5 V8.

I am not forced to drive an old Omega. I simply like it.
