looked real nice too. loved the inside of it, lovely displays, nice leg room in the back. nice tinted windows too but  didnt think much of the cloth seats, thought the4y looked a little drab to be honest. but i wouldnt say no to one thats for sure :y :y

I understood from Vx that the Insignia is not released until January 2009. :o :o :o :o

There is no 3.0 in the range, but it is the 2.8i V6 turbo 4x4 Elite that everyone will want!  Believe me it is tremendous! 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-)

What makes you want this car? Is it just because it's a vauxhall? It's just the same as every other medium to large car available in todays market, althoygh probably not built as well. As i watched the you tube vid I saw audi, then merc and the back is BMWish.
Omegas were/are different and stand out from the crowd. You are not forced to stay with GM.

Hmmm...just noticed, it looks like a mazda from the front.

Apart from the 2.8 only comes with the autobox and it's absolutely lousy, you have to use kickdown to get it into the right gear where as the Omega you just encourage the throttle a little and the box drops down without effort. I really wasn't very impressed to be honest.... Apparently GM know about the problem and are working on the software.
