I would like a manual and tbh there are more manuals for sale so would make the choice easier but need an auto as my legs wont take much more pumping of the clutch  I made some crafty offers on cars for sale but everyone sticking to the listed price and wont barter

sorry to hear that but as a general rule stronger back and front muscles to spine will help more..  so imo keep them working as much as possible..  [although lacking of info about your condition]

My car is in better shape than me  Not to worry im sure the only cure is an Omega 3.0

The V6 Omega lends itself to the Auto box.  In Manual form, it's not a LuxoBarge.

Of course, this discussion has been done to death.

I'll still kill any manual Omega from 20mph to 150mph

Keep telling yourself that

It must be said that it seems possible to run a desmond for 160k miles without actually replacing anything

Almost

Those 320's are 3.something V6's I think? That would easily have my 2.2, I don't expect to win any races in it

Confusingly, both the E320/R320 and E280/R280 are both 3 litre, but as you say a V6......

Yes a 'proper' Omega dosn't need 3 pedals!

Given the quality of the brakes after a work out, a 'driven' manual effectively only has two pedals anyway

I still maintain that if you are often hitting the dramatic fade (not just the initial fade after 2 or 3 80mph to 0 emergency stops in quick succession), you are really in the realms of track pads and better fluid, and accept the compromises of said pads.

Bigger discs may help for delay the fade briefly.

Using Dot 5.1 as it is front pads are starting to grumble when hot, so due a change...  any temporary/shortterm suggestions
