lol some of you do make me smile when i read the replies, brightens up my day, i have done just over 500 miles in it and it has not used a drop of oil or water, the only reason i am thinking of poss selling it is that it dont seem very quick, dont get me wrong tc off and sports mode it does really shift, but it dont seem as quick as my 850 R estate was( yeah i know it was turbo`d) but past 50 mph it seems on par ish with the volvo

Me and Andy are a kind of double act  ::)  ;D

Seriously though Andy is right, on paper its worth no more than £800. But wax it up, and someone may take a shine to it and pay a lot more. Just depends who wants it  :y

Regarding how fast it is, i know what you mean, the smoothness does make it 'feel' less fast. The brutal dual RAM on the Senators made them feel fast  8-)

exactly my old carlton gsi 3000 24v with dual ram air was stupid, spent nearly as much time sideways as going in a straight line, but boy when you burried the throttle it was unreal, thought the mig would be the same but i guess it is more refined but does the same job

Side by side, booting it at high speed  ::) - There is nothing in it, the Omega just has the leggs on it a Senator.

But the sense of speed is much greater in the senator, especially at 4k rpm!  :D
