Know the feeling mate - been there. Thought there would never be another car like the Scorp but then discovered Rovers. First a 623, then a 620 (now up for sale) and then this week , picked up a mint 55k 1 owner 2.0 V6 75 for £1000.
What a car! I'm not saying I like it better than Scorps, it's a bit character-less, but a worthy replacement nevertheless - sheer luxury. Insurance is good too - same as the 620, despite being a few years younger and a bit more valuable. How DO they work premiums out?! 
The premium is far less than my old K reg P100 pick up!

You don't have to be mad to own a Scorp - but it helps!
