Now remove the engine, and put in v6, then remove bodyshell and put Omega one on...

Would like nothing more than a V6 Gas Omega...

Oh forget the lpg rubbish. No point in having Omega, then losing the boot. May as well get a smaller car.

Whos boot would be even fuller with tank!

......
 even though I've still never managed to actually fill the boot

Not everyone uses their car as a glorified van  ......

Take my wife shopping to Tesco/Asda/etc She'd show you how you can easily fill it!

I find 5 adults in Omega a squeeze due to tunnel.  In my case, passengers invariably come with lugguage, hence why I need big boot.  Also, our camping trips, of south of France trips, we fill the boot.

Decent load carrying is more important to me that RWD etc.  So much so, I am seriously considering a Veccy-C, 03 plate, 37k, 50mpg, which I've known from new.

No problems filling the back full of children and when we go on holiday we put a lot of stuff in the van.

As to South of France - towing limit in France is 82.5mph

So long as the gross train weight does not exceed 3.5 tonnes, the French don't differentiate between cars and cars towing caravans, so it's 130km/h on autoroutes (110km/h in the rain), 110km/h on roads with a central divide (100km/h in the rain) and 90km/h all other roads outside built-up areas (80km/h in the rain).
If the gross train weight exceeds 3.5 tonnes, the speed limits are 110km/h, 100km/h, 80km/h, respectively.
For full details from the official website see: Code de la Route - Limitations de vitesse

My train weight is under 3 tons!!
