newbe with 1990 gsi2000

Post by simonbach »

hi all,my name is simon im 26 years old and live near colchester,essex,ive owned about 25 vauxhalls in my 9 years of driving,astra gte 8v,astra gte 16v,1.6 mk2 cavs,mk2 sri130,mk3 sri c20seh,and my current vauxhall is my 1990 satin red cavalier gsi2000,ive treated it to new wings,new arches,loads of paintwork,full stainless exhaust,power cap,superchip.it makes a proven 183.5 bhp and is mega reliable,well ive had a few little niggly problems like abs light issues,bottom arms,clutch,tyres but onky wear and tear stuff.i brought it almost 3 years ago with 82,000 miles and its now on 105,000 miles so its still pretty low milage,hopfully the dreaded car cancer wont kill her off for a few years.
