1993 Vauxhall Senator CD review from UK and Ireland
"High performance, luxurious, cheap to buy, gas guzzler"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I think the gear box is beginning to show wear as judders on hard exceleration.
Recently replaced water pump.
General comments?
Considering it's mileage this car is surprisingly sound, drivers seat showing minor wear (leather) which is strange as I have seen cars with a lot less miles with tattier interiors. body work is also remarkably good. the quality of these cars is so variable.
Performance is very good, it just keeps going.
Replacement suspension (for Carlton GSI units I suspect) has made the car firmer than it would have been originally.
