Yes, I know someone who has an ex Police one, that's manual.

There was also a Lotus variant, as there was with the Carlton, the latter along with the Cresta are the only two Vauxhall's I like, oh and the Monaro.

So it is, cheers for that. I always assumed that with the name it would be that, not another model as that makes things confusing

It's like I could never understand the Senator and the Carlton, from what I can tell they are the same apart from the grill lol, they are as bad as Ford with there naming.
