Mk3 Cavalier Owners Club | Vauxhall Cavalier Dot Com

Wish I had took pics before I started, will need to make a start on inside the car soon as there's a nest in the drivers seat and no other interior at all. Picked up some Vectra B half leather today though so that should be a good start if it fits

Still a huge amount to remove but slowly it's getting there. Just won a gsi grill on eBay, should be much better as mines is currently cable tied on. Still looking for a headlining if anyone has one?

And it's a 1994 'm' reg to answer your question

Yeah it stays on with ignition for about 10-20 seconds then goes out, if u do the glow plugs 3 times before trying to start it fires straight up. Also it's the Isuzu td engine Got the bonnet open today, replaced the cracked header tank and filled it up with fresh antifreeze and left it running for 3...

I knew one day I'd go back to a cavalier, this came up locally and I went to view it but thought paintwork was too much work so walked away, a week later I got a text offering me it much cheaper, ended up I got it for £150 It's motd for months but needs a lot of work on every aspect of the car It ha...
