1983 Opel Senator Model 2A CD 3.0E petrol
Summary:
Wonderful car
Faults:
Rear brakes. Now I have Omega 3000 Caravan rear brakes (discs are original) and they are working great!
Rear tires won't last more than a week.
Rust in the rear fenders and in the lowest edge of the front door.
Water pump blew up (new costs about £8..).
License plate lights need new wires.
Electric windows don't work anymore in the rear doors.
General Comments:
Very sporty family car. Quite good performance with a manual 5 speed gearbox. Engine gives about 220 horses and sounds just like a new.
Manzel springs and koni shock absorbers gives a good touch to road the with BMW 7x16" wheels and 215/45 ZR 16 tires.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
