Didn't one of the motoring magazines write one off during testing....I seem to remember summat about that.

Also, as mentioned in the video, the Police WERE pissed off and as I recall slated the car as too fast for their force. Didn't realise 'til now that they'd bought so many Senators tho

You'd hope so!!

He meant plastic trim, switches etc come from the boggo 1.8 model obviously the 180mph clocks did not.
