Maybe, freed from the shackles of big GM, Opel will reintroduce a proper rear wheel drive car, which could be named after the last letter in the Greek alphabet.

The bodywork could be built from alluminium alloy to save weight, fuel and emmisions, and it could be powered by a 2.7 or 3.0 litre twin turbo diesel engine, coupled to a six speed automatic gearbox like that in the 7 Series B*W. There could even be a 4.2 litre supercharged V8 petrol version developing 400 BHP plus.

I wonder if anyone else has thought of this?  ;)

Plenty have thought of it, but there's no backhanders money in it.

Funny you should say this, went into a Vauxhall Dealers the other day where there was a gorgeous looking VXR Insignia (I thin it was) with a price tag on the windscreen for nearly £29,000 there price £14,995  :o If I had a few quid spare it would have been sitting outside our house now :)

15K !!!?? :o :D For a VXR!!? That can't be right.?
I'd be happy with any insignia with a turbo petrol for that money (if I had it ::)  )
Pity all those poor foolish people who bought new cars in 2007/8 :-/
