Ugly, is what it is! But I've seen a picture of it before somewhere.. some special edition Catera/Omega based thing..

Those front indicators are off an MX-5, incidentally, I reckon.

Do you know I have been looking at both views of this car, and I cannot get away from the fact that..............I love it!!!

The engine must surely be at least a 3 litre, and no I cannot see the interior layout, but somehow it is so appealing 8-) 8-) 8-)  Even the colour would be my choice, and those wheels......... :y :y :y :y :y :y :y :y :y

I want it!  Where is it now, and how much?

I'm off to rob a bank! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

It looks like what Bitter would produce if presented with an Omega.
Apart from the slightly forced rear lights I like it.

its a Bitter Berlina- the car was built in 1994 using the technical underpinnings of an Opel Omega MV6 Mk 1 (technically, some of you guys were really close, but this car has received so many modifications - Bitter has the status of a manufacturer - it's not an Opel anymore ), intended to be a '95 model. It was updated in a final desperate attempt to get sufficient funding for production in 1996, but eventually all of these attempts failed, making this car a one of a kind. http://www.bittercars.com/bitter/bitter.nsf/pages/Berlina-1996
