That great sales patter will have newbies flocking to the world of complex Citroen ownership. "Last MOT and Service cost £2000!".

Viceroy is a 'posh' Carlton. Senator is bigger. Royale is a coupe Senator. Monza is the Opel version of the Royale

Didn't Vauxhall do Royale's in saloon and coupe? These were basically rebadged Opel Senators and Monza's .... The days when Vauxhall and Opel were different* brands.

Pretty sure they did. Pretty ridiculously confusing overall!

Ahh, only ever seen a Royale Coupe. Lets just throw in Opel Reckord, Commador and Ascona. Riddle me that.

Viceroy has the longer front end to take the 6-pot engine, but the 'ordinary' carlton arse end. Senator has a longer arse end on it.

'SINCE I LISTED THE CAR I HAVE BEEN ASKED WHAT THE SOUND THE ENGINE MAKES IS LIKE..... NOW DONT LAUGH OR TAKE THE P*** BUT THE ONLY WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT IS......REMEMBER WHEN YOU WERE A KID AND YOU PUT A STICK IN YOUR REAR SPOKES TO MAKE IT SOUND LIKE A MOTORBIKE!!!!'

 

'Now the engine gets noisy if I use high revs??????? Cant afford to get it looked at'

+

'I have parked it at the local workshop and I reckon if you give the mechanic a bell (Lee 07445437339) he can tell you the Bobby Moore!!'

 

=So Lee's looked at it, told you it was shagged and you're getting rid before it explodes.

Every time you try to operate one of these weird black controls, which are labeled in black on a black background, a small black light lights up black to let you know you've done it.

2x Thema LS's, spares/repair, £250 each

MEGA BARG. LS were series 3 and top of the range, same spec as my old one, awesome motors.

Be quick before they get bummed for their engines to be put in Integrales.

Carlton = Rekord

Viceroy = Commodore

Senator = Senator

Carlton = Rekord

Viceroy = Commodore

Senator = Senator

 

Or.....

 

Opel Rekord 1978-84 sold as VX Carlton - 4 pot 2 litre, 2 windows each side.

Opel Commodore sold as VX Viceroy - 6 pot 2.5 with longer front end, but still using the 2 window side plan of the Carlton/Rekord.

Opel Senator 1978-83 sold as VX Royale saloon - 6 pot 2.8 or 3 litre with the longer front, plus different rear section incorporating an extra set of windows behind the rear doors.

Opel Monza 1978-82 sold as VX Royale coupe, as above but with fastback body.

 

When GM facelifted the whole range in 1984 the UK got the VX Carlton but not the Opel Rekord, the Viceroy/Commodore were dropped and the VX Royale name was dropped and the saloon became the Vauxhall Senator and the coupe was sold as an Opel Monza.

Clear as mud huh? :lol:

Good lord! I can think of nothing better than just loading up with petrol fuel and touring to a bootfair in a retro mota, tact all working, while listening to banging doble on the face off stero. Viewing is fine, brother. Crah! Many thanks to you, Norman.

I was driven around Belgium at extremely high speed in a Mondeo exactly the same as that in 1997, although it was a V6.

I can remember sitting outside the KFC drive-thru in Milton Keynes as a 16 year old (1985), planning a European tour with my mates. We were going to do it in a Space Cruiser, cos a VW was too obvious and we thought they were just old tat at that time. Anyway, Norman's also got his one on Ebay, I was looking at his tome this morning, possibly better than the Gumtree version:

 

"It wouldnt hurt if it gets new owners to have a service done."

Lord above! Is the big hole between the B and C pillar of that Mitsubishi even repairable? The joys of a vinyl roof perhaps? I looked at the thumbnail and thought "I bet that's local" and lo and behold it's about 3 miles from where I'm sitting. Must resist, must resist.....
