1990 Vauxhall Cavalier L review from UK and Ireland
"Cheap, quick transport"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Camshaft at 138k.
Suspension arm (due to a large hole in the road).
General comments?
The Cavalier is so taken the Michael out of, yet we have just the L trim, and we have a sunroof, central locking, auto box which is quick and packets of legroom.
The car is not the fastest, but 110mph for a car of 13 years can't be bad can it?? It only cost £100 and still we have people saying it was a bargain - when it goes I will be getting a 2.0/2.5 CD model I reckon...
