I've spotted the same white tubby a few times parked outside the market in Grimsby, Opposite the Farmfoods.
Managed to get a pic last time. This taken a week ago on last Saturday 21/4/12.
Is it anybody on here?
Looked clean.

I don't recognise it either, but I did notice you have really big mirrors on your Cavalier and I'd be interested to see a better photo of the modification. ;)

That's a genuine turbo, I know the owners brother. It's one of the nicest examples around. It's not on any sites the lad likes to keep his business away from sites. Either he drives it or his mother.

My mate saw him on the M6 not long back, they both battled it out. Not everyday you'd see 2 cav turbos in the same place LOL.

As far as I'm aware the lad bought it, then he had a bust up with his family and it was parked at their house for 2 years. Then when things got better he got his car back.

I only know his brother who's in to his MK2Cavs I don't know the lad who owns the Cav turbo.

I've seen some more pictures of it and it is by far one of the best ones left.

Sorry for the late replies chaps. I was an old couple in the the car the first time I seen it and the time I took the pictures was the old bloke on his own. Must be in his 50's if not 60's.

If I remember correctly I was in a Mercedes that day. They do have big mirrors :lol:

I didn't say anything to the contrary. This looked like a standard clean example of a tubby.
