Evening All

Post by blaine »

Good evening everyone.

Thought I would sign up and say hello.

I have just got back into my vauxhalls after many years away. Just purchased an L plate Vauxhall Cavalier GLS.

Hope your all well

Hello and welcome to the forum. Congratulations on your new purchase, what's your plans for it? Restoration, few tidy mods?

Enjoy the forum and take a look around, and start a project thread if desired.

Andrei.

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

Hi Blaine,

Welcome aboard...

A nice mid spec car. As Andrei has asked, do you plan to simply keep it standard and road worthy, or do you have bigger plans like modifications or other project ideas.?

Be nice to see some photos. :thumb

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Plans for now are to fix a few little niggles. Not sure what modifications are worth doing on it as of yet haha.

I will create a project thread soon

For now though here is a picture I took of it at the weekend

Looks very tidy, I've never seen those hub caps before, must be a rare set!

Honestly wouldn't know.

They are coming off shortly as I have a set of alloy wheels to go on

They look like Astra Mk2 sport / SRi wheel trims.

Not 100% but I think they were fitted to the MK2 Cavalier SRi as well.

Keep hold of them. Someone out there will be looking for a set.
