My list of possible replacements are all V8,s. e38 740i, CL 500, LS 430.
Misssed out on a very cheap local LS430 on Sunday. :(
Problem I have is that Ive spent well over a grand on the Omega (plus purchase price) since I bought it 9 months ago. If I sell it now, or soon, I will lose most of that money, so Ive kind of trapped myself for a while.
The Omega is a lovely example, but I'm getting the itch for a change again. ::)

If my commute were shorter I and no longer needed to carry lots of stuff about, an LS460 would be high on my list.

Not exactly a stirring V8, but a pretty nice way to get about the place!

Agreed. I'm getting past the boy racer stage now at 57, so a big luxury barge with lots of toys and reasonable grunt fits the bill nicely.
Still hoping to have an e38 740i, but decent ones seem to be rising in value, fast.

I don't think its an age thing as such (I'm a relative OOF nipper at 33), its more that the roads in the UK are oppsing awful, all the time.

If they aren't digging them up they're full of traffic so why not sit back, behind some double glazing, in a leather armchair, with a cracking stereo, and let it all wash over you!?

You can do that in an omega........apart from the double glazing.

Bought a BMW 740 4.4 V8 to replace a Jaguar 4.2 XJ40, was so impressed with the 740 I upgraded it very quickly to a 750 V12 5.4 - lots of fun   ;D ;D

740



A Nice Pair  :)
