As it is me, I have to be a little different...
I am not new to the forum, so I can skip the intro bit, but I was asked to do a W.I.P. for my poor old Cavalier...
I'm affraid that I am a very bad person, as I haven't given it much TLC for about 3 years..not even a wash!!

A little history..
It was first registered on 1st August 1994
It was an ex-lease / hire car from Isleworth, west London.
I bought the Cav from Car-Craft in Rochdale (before they started ripping people off) with 23,000 miles on the clock, on 5th December 1995.
I bought it for my wife for £7,500...as a Christmas present.
Anyway in April 2001, my then regular car ( white Cavalier MkII 1300 base saloon) was getting a little too cream crackered, and so I began to use the car myself as my main run-about.
In September 2005, I decided that with 130,000 miles on the clock, it was unfair to give the car back, so I bought my long suffering wife a newer car.
A late March 2005 Vectra C 1.9CDTi 150 hatchback in a rather fetching metallic blue (could be any of Cornflower Blue, Energy Blue or Olympic Blue - there is little info about the colour)...again I bought this as a Christmas present, and in return I took ownership of the Cav.

So here are a few pics, which I must admit, make the car look quite tidy.
The Cav a couple of years ago.
The Cav , late this afternoon
I wil post more pics up shortly, with some of the common, and a "Only 1 off in the World" mod. Although, you have probably seen these in my other posts.
