The front end will be slightly toned down and the unusual sliding rear doors are set to disappear, but the Omega will definitely retain the bold profile and unusual rear end of the striking prototype. The car will debut at the 2007 Frankfurt show and Vauxhall hopes to have it in dealers by the end of that year.

Sales of new cars rocketed by 32 per cent in October ò€“ 2009ò€™s best month yet.

A total of 168,942 motors were registered, with demand from private buyers soaring 86 per cent in the month.

Paul Everitt, boss of the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, said growth was far better than expected and that the scrappage scheme extension, plus the impending VAT increase, motivated buyers.

Top-selling car for the month was Fordò€™s Fiesta ò€“ 8,812 found homes ò€“ while Vauxhall took second spot, shifting 7,415 new Astras. Scrappage accounted for one sale in five overall.

Total new car registrations in the first 10 months of 2009 stand at 1.68 million, down 12.3 per cent compared with the same period in 2008.
