I've had a chevette, a couple of astras, a viceroy, a nova, some corsas and a combo and currently own the Cav and the Zafira. A late 24v Senator maybe? ~Problem is that my needs don't suit most of the Vauxhall offerings these days, 3 dogs and all the stuff for a day out at a competition barely fits in the Zafira and I wouldn't have any of the designs that were shared with Renault, which are the only ones that fit the requirements.

Was a cracking car, I paid £1500 for it, and put £1500s worth of car stereo kit into it. Had two 12 inch subs mounted firing into the back of the rear seat...... and we were still in the 80s! I drove it everywhere just for the hell of driving and the tunes, and even did a lap of the m25 one night listening to Def Leppard just for kicks.

Surprised no one has mentioned it yet as it was a iconic car but I would love a mk2 Astra Gte 16v, keep looking and if I find one soon then I am afraid the Cavalier will be sold as I just love the mk2 Astras.
Free Parking is a bonus, leaving my Cav in a carbon dust filled carpark is not.....

I've owned a Chevette and a MK1 Astra but would like an Astra GTE. Don't know if I ever will own one though.
