Title: Cheap Senny on the bay
Post by: Mr.OmegaMan on 30 November 2013, 19:39:10

Just seen this 1989 3.0 12v Senator with a private plate which must be worth a few bob.

Fairly low miles considering age. MOT September 2014.. All for £595. Bargain imo, Where's the spare brass when you need it  :'(

I like that, be cheap motoring. DIY fixes easy, parts cheap, I hear from good sources those old 3.0 12v engines are bullet proof!

Lot to be said to buy one of those, than 30k on a new car.

Judging by the arches, those plastic sill covers will be hanging on for dear life.   :-[

Worth buying just to sell the plate, You'd probably get a free Senator and some change out of it.. Not sure how much that plate is worth mind.
