6 of them cars have been scrapped ;) the volvo is still going, i saw it on ebay not long ago, the red sport now has a mini cooper supercharged v6 fitted, the belmont got nicked and i think the black 3.0l sport is knocking about up derby somewhere.

Counciltastic!

I do appreciate a clean Mark 3 Cavalier though - about the last decent car Vauxhall Opel made before the current range.

I've had a few Vauxhalls - generally reliable but dull in my experience - I've tended to buy them based on the fact that they were cheaper than the Ford equivalent for effectively the same spec but got bored of them quickly after purchase.

Really liked the Mk3 Cavalier SRi back in the 90's - went well enough and had great seats :cool:

Had a couple as company cars in the last few years but I havent had a vauxhall Ive paid my own money for since 2003 - mk3 Cavalier 2.0 CDi - DULL DULL DULL !
