                Yes I loved mine too, had two 24v Carlton’s but the Senator was the 'dangle berries'

Interiors have shrunk over time, My Carltons were a tad smaller, Omega a tad tighter.

I like a roomy car with the gadgets, sunroof and electric sunroof have to be a must on my next car, but I am not aware of anything that I would like that compare to a Senator, Maybe a BMW series 7/8 or an S class Merc.  But I havnt enough spare cash to in vest in either, and would they ever be classed as a proper classic in t he future.

I never really noticed that ....

My R Class had a pano roof ..... I do miss it on my ML

A mate of mine used to import gliders from Germany, and used a 450SEL 6.9 as a tow car. He recounted one time, when he was late for a ferry with a twin axle glider trailer on the back, and it was apparently still happy on the autobahn at 130 MPH.

The 6.9 is good but I prefer the earlier 300 SEL 6.3.

A proper cold war Merc.

I imagine Jay Leno would be a great bloke to share a pint with.

You don't quite sit right in one unless you're a dictator, though.
