Mk3 Cavalier Owners Club | Vauxhall Cavalier Dot Com

Here's my 2nd GSI had it since late November 13 been off the road since, now taxed for 6 months hoping to find a garage to store it in before winter arrives again. It's had only 1 owner from new, the guy was 84 when I got it, must of bought it as a retirement present for himself. It needs lots of little bits & pieces doing I think it's been a bit neglected, seems solid underneath though as it was stored in a garage when it wasn't doing it's 103,000 miles

looks a really nice cav mate, looks clean and solid enough, whats your plans for it,? Ads

1 owner in 24 years isn't bad going!

are you going to keep stanadard and restore it?

I think it's stayed standard this long it be a shame to mess with it, may put a de-cat pipe & a K & N filter in the airbox for now.

Looks really great condition, like you said a shame to mess with such an original example....

Would love to fond one myself..

Nice mate looks like a good project cav standard back box to!

love it

Nice original example not many left like it

very nice

Well leaving it standard didn't last long, while sorting my ABS problem I noticed a hole in the short pipe going into the backbox with time short as the dreaded MOT is due next week I bought the Sebring one joecavaliersri had for sale so here's the pics.





I have also removed the old alarm as I couldn't get it to work.

Looks nice that pal,the car is in great condition.

It's got a nice burbble to it not to loud.

Well it failed the MOT on a split steering rack gaiter with no advisories, so need to source a gaiter set to fit at the weekend.

Not much of an update since attending Beaulieu in July I've done a few little jobs tidying it up & trying to source bits, got a headlining to fit. The battery died this week so got a new Bosch one fitted now.

Good to hear you're still keeping busy.

looks lovely

Looks OK in the pics the paint is not in the best condition close up though. I like the look of your car as well.

I've not seen this one yet she looks good.
I wish my cavalier was back on the road.

Well another years motoring as it passed the MOT yesterday after the tester replaced a side light & number plate bulb FOC.

Good to hear she's still running.

Nice, I want a GSI for my next Cavalier.

Nice one m8 I hope to see it soon.

You'll see it at the Polhill show.

polhill show? tell me more please! Just had a look at your picture of your 3 cavaliers together, I'm sure i've met you. Did you sell some door cards on ebay about a year back? If you did, i was the one that got them, still not fitted them yet though
