1992 Vauxhall Senator CDi 24v review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent car for very little money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced to rear tyres.
Nothing Else so far.
General comments?
The car is very comfortable on long journeys.
The acceleration from start with the automatic is not that impressive. However on the motorway the vehicle can attain very high speed relatively effortlessly. The automatic gearbox does not change into fourth until 135mph.
Handling is sloppy. The car has very little feel through the steering and the back end of the vehicle is easy to offend. It is more suited to effortless cruising.
I am aware that the timing chain is weak point on these vehicles. In truth I have not bothered to change it as I only paid 450GBP for the vehicle.
