Have you phoned the previous owner.....he might have them....as obviously the battery has been off as it was parked up for 2 years? Might save you vx stealer price of getting them  :y

Good point, there was nothing in the glove box. However it still had its original jack kit and stuff in the boot. Got his name i could write to him...

Yeah but he just bought it about 2 weeks ago, he thought it was in the glove too along with the alloy centre cap key.

What keeps going though my mind, is sell the Omega!!  :o :o - And LPG the Senny which can be done for £300  :o

 ;D ;D ;D

The Senator must have been one hell of a car in the late 80's early 90's - I can see why people who came from the Senator to the Omega dislike it.

In some areas they seam to have taken a step backwards...

I tried to sell my last 2.0l Omega to colleage's huisband.  He had a Senator and couldn't bring himself to pay £5k to lose what he had - so he paid £200 for repairs and still has it 4 years later.  Senator owners huh  ::)

Thats what I was thinking! Sounds like a great car.  
My mate used to have a Carlton GSI which was really nice (and quick) but the Senny sounds cool too.  8-)

Enjoy  :y

Hi Tunnie,
               great to hear you've got the Sennie and seem very pleased with it  :) I was just curious, which route did you go down regarding insurance in the end?

Cheers Jim

Tunnie.

Yes the Senator was a hell of a car in the early 90's. :)

Even against todays cars it will hold its own.
I bought my first one in 1996, and I have now owned 5. I don't doubt there will be 6th at some point. I just keep going back to them!

Now if only I could find a 4.0 Irmscher job!  8-)

Sent a txt message to the seller, and got the Reg number.

Went to Norwich Union, insured the car for a day from 12th @ 12:10PM to 13th @ 12:10 PM

Cost me £10.50, and you can print out a certificate to say your insured inc ase plod stop you. Never been stopped before, but you never know so better to be safe than sorry!

I got the cover from here:

Saw one of those on Autobahn stormers, it was said to be the only 4.0 factory fit in the country!
