That looks fantastic, I'm envious, very envious!

You should take the time to join AutoBahnStormers too with that car. They'll love your car there. You'll be a bit of a hero with a car like that!

Once you get it, please do me a favour:

Slide the front seats all the way back and then open the rear doors and take a couple of pictures of the legroom and post them back up here please.

i might get shot down in flames for saying so but imo the sennie was a much better car than the mig.

to be honest i would agree ive had 3 miggys and this feels nicer and more responsive to drive and with the suspension in sports setting its still a very comfortable ride but very stable and very little body roll

i had to scrap mine because of the dreaded tinworm in its hind quarters,it was like losing an old friend

,in the future i would like to have a diesel mig for everyday use and a senny (preferably green)with digital dash for sunny sundays 8-)

Know what you mean, same reason i had to scrap mine

. Apart from the rust it was the best motor i've ever had including my Elite althought if you had the Senny power plant in the Mig i think it would be hard to better

i didnt want to send mine to the scrappy,it only had 115,000 on it,i also had an identical one for spares,i rang up the local abs rep and asked him if any members would be interested in them for spares/repair but he never got back to me so they had to go on the back of the lorry,one on top of the other with the hi-ab through the sunroof of the one on top.

adsomega · « **Reply #16 on:** 31 March 2008, 08:45:47 »

i was expecting to find a fair bit of rust on this one but luckily it only has a couple of small surface rust patches which will be dealt with sharpish

my mrs loved the senator but hates the mig.she cant see anything beyond the screen (front and rear) and it keeps breaking down.ive tried to reassure her that the more she drives it the more she will get used to the length etc; but tbh she couldnt drive a pig with a stick.
