1991 Vauxhall Senator CD 24V review from UK and Ireland
"One of the last big cruisers by Vauxhall"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tired engine replaced with an Ex-police 24V engine.
Air-conditioning condenser developed a leak.
Various dashboard lights not illuminating.
Surging problem on acceleration + stuttering idle (new ECU, new idle control valve. Suspect a fuel pump problem).
Heavy power steering (speed value fault?).
Whining differential.
Rusty rear arches.
General comments?
Very comfortable.
Very quick pickup when cruising.
Would pull a house down, if I could get a tow hitch on one!.
