1993 Vauxhall Cavalier 4x4 Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"I waited for 12 years to buy one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Blew head gasket & split cylinder head.
N/S/F ABS sensor failed.
Brake servo burst.
Transfer box failed at 117000.
Retains 22mpg on a good day.
General comments?
Who cares about the above... It does 155mph+, 0-60 in under 6 seconds and has 250bhp+. Where else can so much speed, comfort and power be had for so cheap and yet remain as nondescript as a 1990 1.6 saloon. Its the ultimate wolf in sheep's clothing.
