Opel/Vauxhall Senator. GM's last large car (and last rwd one) in Europe (although the Insignia isn't much smaller).

Quite an awesome car as well. My dad had one of those for a few months, it drank fuel like something else though.

Yes, that would be one reason why they're gone. I don't think they ever made a diesel.
Haven't seen one in years.

No diesels, but there was a 4.0 Litre Irmscher version with 270ish Horsepower I think.

The Omega and lasted until the early 00s. It was also larger than the Senator in length, width and hight. The wheelbase was identical.

I thought the Omega was one step down from the Senator but obviously not. I seem to remember it as a two litre.

They were on the same platform. The Senator was a bit more posh and a bit longer than the Omega A. However, the later Omega B became larger than the at that time already discontinued Senator. The Omega could be had with a variety of gasoline and diesel engines, starting with a 2.0. You could get the Omega A with a 3.0 straight six too though, the engine the Lotus Omega was based on.

This Omega stuck around for a long time and was rebadged all over the world including as the Vauxhall Omega in the UK, Cadillac Catera in the US, Holden Commodore in Australia, Chevrolet Omega in Brazil, and some others.
