The only Cavalier I'd ever buy

[Simon998]

pre 1973

Near sure its 72, as my Mini's a 73 and failed MOT with black/silver plates.

 

[Rocko]

If it was a 73, then its not pre 73 is it you tit?

 

[Crimson]

Im impressed witht he work and care that the previous owner put into the car

but to me it just looks like a cheap UK watered down version of Opel Manta

I think the seller knows he wont get many offers for it hence the bargain selling price

Mook get her bought.

 

[PmcBeaver81]

too much browness going on for me there. maybe a different colour and i could be persuaded to buy.

if i had the money and the space it would find a nice new home but alas... sadly not!!

i do like the cavs of this era, a nice 2 door coupe would be awesome for me

I used to work on my granny's Chevette evey wkd - it had copper paintwork

such an easy car to maintain - but like the early Cav, not the prettiest looking car

She had a Mk2 Escort Mexico before that in signal orange - I loved that car

i had a white one with a black roof, same colour inside as your own..........nice motor in there day.

 

[AMG]

On a similar note, anyone know who owns this now?

Seen it about Bangor a few times.

 

[wingnut]

Something strangely appealing about that - probably drives like an aul dose though.

hit the nail on the head, a bit of a cross between a Chevette and the first carton, small boat and a big one, and changeing gear is like stairing soup.

 

[Gaz86]

Dunno about the tailpipe but it's oldskool n I like oldskool

 

[Crimson]

That's not bad, apart from the tacky smoked rear lights and it looks like someone transplated a fabia VRS talpipe on to the exhaust

the paintwork on the boot looks a bit off - or maybe it's just the angle at which the photo was taken

How about Burgundy?






If it was a coupé rolling on ATS Classics with a Rover V8 transplanted into it I'd show some interest but since it isn't, I won't.

It wouldn't have the best paint job in the world, just I'd seen it about Bangor lately and was wondering who owned it.

 

[dhtommy]

i want it so bad

 

[karron]

that ascona was in the doe depot near balloo last time i went past.

 

[clio_craig]

then ascona is owned by a boy in comber/ards direction......and goes like absolute stink!

if its the same one...
