The problem is that when their name goes on to the vehicle log book, they acctually believe it means that they have ownership of the road, arrogant idiots

My estae would crank for a long time if fuel level was below quarter tank. Leak off pipes are a pain to do but get the replacement pipe from a diesel injection placd as it will be known good pipe. Injector 6 has a blanking piece on it which is a real pig to get to. Again, if replacing this, get from a good injection place

  Series 1, chrome bumpers, sloping dash and oil/battery gauge in dash clock set
Series 1 1/2, very few cars made, differant seats, squarer dash layout and differant dash clock set, still with chrome bumpers
Series 2 differant bonnet, mainly smooth, differant headlamps, front indicators, plastic bumpers, some front brake differancs, longer drop links, differant wheels
The main visual differancs between the models of the series, saloons and coupes included. My old Opel Senator is a 1 1/2. As for the 2.8 carb, there was/is a conversion using a Weber which also makes it manual choke. Got one on my Senny but dont ask me what model the carb is as not been under the bonnet for a long time.

  Have a look in the cars for sale section as Bigriffin is selling his estate. Most of the normal known problems are sorted. as for getting the car looked after once bought, Serek is second to none in expertise and quality of work
