1987 Opel Kadett Club review from Sweden
"Kadett- fun to drive and cheap to buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've only had two small problems. Together they cost me 190 pounds.
You have to keep in mind that before I bought the car, it had only been driven approximately 200 km in the latest year. With that in mind it's not strange that two problems occurred when I started to use the car more every month than the previous owner did in one year!
General comments?
The car of my dreams!
I love the design, both inside and outside.
The size of Kadett is perfect and at the same time it's spacious inside.
It's very fun to drive, I thank the gearbox and the steering for that. Especially the 5- speed gearbox- it's a pleasure to use!
Kadett are also cheap to buy and to drive. My fuel- costs are limited. One more good thing is that it always starts. Even in the winter when it's quite cold.
The only bad thing with Kadett is the rust, and the sensitivity towards rust. My car is now free from rust and I'm very happy for that.
I'm very pleased with my Kadett, so pleased that I'm going to buy one more! I will use my "new" one in the winter and the one I'm writing about here, I will use in the summer.
