Its very dependant on mileage, condition and history. Put up a better discription and we can take it from there.

[thomascdx24v]

107000 miles Just had the rocker daskets replaced. In fair condition The usual little rust bubbles around the rear arches. Interior is in excellent condition with cream leather. some wearing on drivers side but not really bad Cruise con works as does everthing else inckuding the original 6 stack cd player. The only 1 problem is the climate control is stuck on heat and at the feet posistion. its an estate with the rear cover and dog guard. The engine runs very sweet and the gear box is smooth.
Hope that helps

Just to add its a 1997 R. It has tax untill the end on july and m.o.t till mid jan 2009

At a guess it will be about £1000 or just under, beind an estate it makes it worth more than the saloon version.

[thomascdx24v]

Cool thankyou

estate is much more desirable, plus its quite modest miles and nice spec.

I would put it on autotrader at 1k (there is a special deal for cars up to 1k).  Cheaper than ebay and you will get real buyers.

Obviously best to get the air con fixed first if that's realistic.  You have tried resetting it?

[thomascdx24v]

yeah held down auto and off for 10 secs checked fuses, and nothing. its most annoying that its pumping out hot air

What year is this senny?  Have you owned one before? :-?  If it is a good example without body rot I am envious.  I still miss mine.

[thomascdx24v]

Yeah i owned a 24v on a j plate before but it got written off by a dominos pizza car!!! the current one is on a k plate, marron with black leather. its my uncles car as was my old one. I cant wait nothing can beat the power and sound of that 3.0 24v straight 6. Happy days are here again!!!!!

That sounds brilliant Thomas!   Now I really am envious!

That, I believe, is the last year (1992/3) of Senny production, when in fact most of them were bought by the police.  You probably know this already, but just check those rear wheel arches for rot (the Senny weakness).  

[thomascdx24v]

My uncle had them done about 3 years ago. I believe l was the last of the cd models with a couple of police knocking around on m plates not that i would ever buy one of those. If this site lets me stay on as a straight sixer i will let you drive it to remind you of what your missing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes please Thomas!  Northampton here I come!

Yer doomed!  I had 6 months of misery from a similar problem - only got it fixed because a fellow OOF member sold me a replacement climate control unit.  

All the details of how to extract the unit are in the maintenance section of the forum under a "climate bulb replacement" thread.  A new unit costs £167 + VAT, but there's one on eBay for £34.99 + £6.50 postage.   Or ask one of the OOF breakers if they've got one.

Or just sell the car on a cold day
