1993 Vauxhall Senator CD review from UK and Ireland
"An expensive badly built load of junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belt broke, leaving me stranded.
Auto transmission (twice) at vast expense.
Cylinder head gasket.
Myriad of minor electrical faults including stereo, central locking, dashboard lights etc.
General comments?
Lovely when it works, costs an arm and a leg when it goes wrong.
Does 35+ mpg on a motorway.
