It's rarity being it's downfall, parts will be unavailable especially for the 4x4 system I would imagine. And at the end of the day when it is driving down the road how do you tell it is a 4x4. Still like to own it mind

And how many other sennys of that age are you going to find being pushed around the bends at the same time your 4x4 is on the road. Grin

And because of the extra weight a normal senny will leave you for dead on the non twisty bits. Grin

I will add, that I would def try and buy it if I had the money..

I searched for many many years to find one of these, and I'm not best pleased at having to sell it now I can tell you.

Nice car.

Why are you selling?

Thanks.
I am selling it because I have just too many projects and not enough time to do them all justice. Finding this FF Senator was one of those Eureka moments that only happen a couple of times in life, and I hate the fact that it now has to sit outside. Embarrassed

Hopefully the next owner will be as enthused with it as I have been - it will be a fantastic project and an almost unique car.
