if you go for a french fwd try 970 kg 1.6 110 hp clit..

fuel cost nearly same as diesels , engine maintenance nearly 0, and cause most of the 2.0 drivers cry ;D

You don't want to try a 1700 low blow TD Astra ......  :-? It's the first car I've driven where I've run out of revs joining a motorway before I've ran out of road!  ;D  ;D  ;D  :y

I too am missing an omega again  8-)
My rover turbo is fast, makes nice noises and now has a stainless and de-cat........ and handles reasonably well. But i am toying with the idea, as i miss rwd, the presence ( im sick of people thinking "its only a rover" and having to prove them wrong) and the space and equipment my miggys have had .
My problem is i can chuck money at my turbo and get some nice bhp gains and i dont know how easy it is getting bigger bhp from an omega ?
My insurance however is not a problem as i do it online, dont have a max ammount of changes and dont even have to ring them up and feel silly changing my car "again"  ;D
Good luck with ya new omega James  :y maybe i too will join you and shortly return to mig ownership??
By the way do all your family and friends call you a car-slag or is that just mine with me????? :D :D

I took her little Rover for a blast the other day, looking for a Traffic Master mast (had to change the TM unit), and I'd forgotten how much fun it was...  ...I've got a bit too used to my mobile armchair...
