For me it could be a Jag XJ (really fancy one of those at the moment, 7series Beemer, or a bid Lexus.
As mentioned by many in the other thread, the later Lexus are pretty ugly externally, but otherwise superb cars.
Hadnt thought of the Merc SLS before now, but that could be a possibility too.
Its a decision I may have to make later this year, as Im starting to think that me and my Omega are getting a bit jaded with each other.
Maybe time for a change.  :)

It's got to be an estate for me so that limits things. I miss my Range Rover so that is tempting

Monaro and VXR8 are overpriced.

They seem to have gone up in value over the last year or more? I was looking at a high miler of 100k for £11,000 at one point. They seem to be 12-13k at an advertised price. More sensible mileage examples seem to start at 14-15k these days in r8 form. :-\

Tunnie has the right idea. You can buy a CLS Merc far cheaper year for year than a a VXR/Monaro.

This is despite the german barge costing twice as much when new.

would wamt to hold out for the w12 verson though  :-X

6 litres of 12 cylinder goodness  8) 8) 8)

Yep...10% of the original price sounds good to me.

I like the Phaeton despite it's gargantuan proportions. :y

I actually really like the shape and body  :-X
