1986 senator a2 3.0 cdi, low miles, mot, For Sale

Here we have a 1986 vauxhall senator 3. 0cdi automatic finished in met green.

it's covered 68000miles and has mot a full years mot. 2 owners from new last since 1988. 2 new front tyres fitted for the mot.

this is one of my own personal cars that i've decided is time to find a new home.

i'm a big fan of these senators and i no own 3 a2s so 2 are now forsale. I tried to buy a c reg white cdi 18months ago but was messed around by two different sellers and i've now finally managed to buy it so my other 2 senators are now forsale to fund the restoration of the one i'm keeping as the seller wasn't honest of repairs it needed.

i bought this one earlier in the year to replace my 2. 5i which is also forsale in my other items. I bought it from its elderly owner who had owner it since 1988. i drove it 160miles home which it did faultlessly. When i got it home i serviced it including plugs and fitted a new water pump and rocker cover gasket. The fuel hoses were all perished so i parked it up awaiting me to replace them and it's sat there ever since as i got so busy with work. This has sat since last march in my yard til this week when i decided it's about time it found a new home. So here it is.

just fitted a brand new battery to it. I've also replaced all the fuel hoses.

it's got alloy wheels power steering central locking headlamp washers electric windows electric mirrors electric sunroof heated seats air conditioning etc. It was also fitted with the optional extra anti lock brakes.

the interior is mint with little wear.

the exterior is also very good but there is a dent to nsf wing and minor rust. The bottom of the wings and rear archs have been repaired in the past as have the strut turrets (none of these areas are perfect) and the top of the osf wing are a bit patchy paintwise. Otherwise it's in vgc for its age and is very presentable. (on the main picture it's clouds reflecting off the bonnet btw!)

mechanically it starts runs and drives lovely. Real pleasure to drive.

all of the work i can think of is purely cosmetic and only needs doing if you want an immaculate example. There is a slight ticking noise underload which is a slight manifold blow which quietens down when warmed up. The rear electric windows don't work but i don't think the rear has ever been used.

i really hope it goes to a good home. These are a very rare car nowerdays and are finally going up in value and is only being sold as i have too many cars and need the funds to restore the one i'm keeping. I'm selling it for what it owes me. The last pic shows my senators.
