Senator
« on: 27 September 2009, 17:18:32 »

I am now the proud owner of a Vauxhall Senator 24v, yeehah  8-). It has 72000 miles on the clock and although it has been sitting around for awhile it came with a years MOT. Just drove it back from London, boy is it quick. A few problems with it, like the suspension mounts need replacing as there is a knocking noise underneath and a ABS sensor needs replacing which the person who sold it to me is sending one out for me to fit. Also some other minor faults like the rear window is not working and the rev counter sensor is kaput. I am hoping that all these are minor and i am taking the car of the road during winter and parking it up in the garage to get it fully fit. Have joined Autobahnstormers but still have my Omega so will be with this site for awhile to come. I am absolutely chuffed with it. Off now to get my bucket and sponge to give it a good clean and wax before it is stored. Good thing also, it has no rust.
Cheers :D
