Tax exempt, and returns 5mpg...which isn't bad considering it's a 9.3 litre twin turbo V8 knocking out 2,200 BHP and is 4 seconds faster than a McLaren F1 up the strip

I don't think that's a VX4/90.  They had a cheese-cutter grill like the Senator.  I'd say it was a bog-standard Victor - emp :Dhasis on the 'was'.
