Quite safe enough all things considered.

Btw, those RT's don't clear standing water anywhere near as well as sc3.

Nor do tired Eagle F1s, but boy its exciting .

Can't actually say I noticed the RTs ever misbehave in the rain though  . What is the wear like on them?

Was planning to get another couple of weeks out of the Runway Performance 926s on the front of the Merc, but Mondays rain suggested that was a silly idea...

deeper than the wider rears that coped no problem. (Dunno I haven't measured them but they look ok)

I see folk mention they'res no market for large
large cars,  so how come they keep making each model bigger than previous one. Wonder how large the "Omega D" would be now?  The insignia is huge compared to a mk 1 Cav,,

We haven't had the Omega C yet! No we haven't but it would've been long gone by now and on a D.  Vec c has been through two faces and so has insignia.

The Insignia is bigger than an Omega, too. Current Mondeos are larger than Scorpios.
Try parking a classic Range Rover next to an ordinary family hatchback if you want a graphic example of just how bloated modern cars are.

Not in the cabin or boot. Quite cramped are those Insignias, esp in back.

And you can't get a pram or a wheelchair or even luggage in the back. Ask A..........no....don't.

And that was going to be my next point; not only does the shape of the car waste a lot of space, but the lazy packaging of all the stuff inside makes matters worse. It's as if the occupants are the last thing to be considered.

And all the wank around protecting those retarded pedestrians too stupid to look before stepping out. Personally, I'm all in favour of natural selection - fight 2 tones of metal, you're out of the gene pool.

I see TB is off report at last

The Insignia is wider inside than the Skoda Oxymoron Superb. That's the most positive point I can think of for that. Dimensionally, the Insignia is the same size as the VXR8, the only difference being that the VXR8 is four inches wider. Just shows that you can design a car or you style one, and very occasionally you can manage both, the Jag Xf estate being a case in point...

Sportbrake is very expensive from what I've seen. Lovely looking car though.
