Badly listed. 10 months MOT. £500. No bids yet. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/classic-cars-restoration-project/184176290358?hash=item2ae1c32a36:g:VMwAAOSwooFeTCvX

Did a double take there- looks like mine!

I've no idea how to price a mk1 Cav nowadays. They were utterly worthless about 15 years ago, just as Manta prices were starting to take off. 

Generally at least a grand less than the equivalent Cortina, I would reckon. But the low end of that auction estimate does seem ridiculously low assuming the car has a recent MoT and is not fucked.

Having said that, where is this auction again? ?

This 3-dr 2.2 manual SRi is cheap as chips and has already failed to get a single bid at £500 once, now its £250 and is still barely getting a sniff. Wanky coilover suspension fitted but it still looks decent.

 

[wuvvum]

/\ Those 2.2s are actually meant to be a pretty decent steer.

[wuvvum]

Have we had this little sweetie yet?  Probably a bit* rusty, but still would.  Shows how much prices for these have gone up though, when a rough one is already at 770 quid with nearly two days left.

The mingebag models are ace in their own right, but the snazzier model 16V ones with the seat extenders etc are a much nicer place to be.

It's all very well buying quality* ancient Mercedes, but it's probs time @wuvvum really showed us what he made of, by simply* buying this Volvo

It gets minus points for not having those 1970's 'Dymo' printer type labels by every single switch, but redeems itself for having a name that reminds of this class act.. 

 

 

 

[wuvvum]

Watchlisted, although unfortunately it's still another 6 months before it'll be old enough to be legally driven on a car licence.  I do have provisional PSV entitlement, but then I'd have to buy L plates and employ a qualified bus driver to sit in the front row every time I went out in it, which could get expensive.

It's only running on 3 so is probably a bit salty.

Now this is pretty cool. If you aren't fan of the white Grand Am Coupe above, why not try this white Grand Am Coupe from 2 generations earlier? Quad4 powered and manual, that's a rare find even in the states.

Looks cheap but burning oil isn't good on that engine, especially if there's not much history,ask me how I know!! 

Although, at that price point it could still provide a very decent mode of transport for someone. 

Motor is just the right size for the car. 

[Mr_Bo11ox]

That white Pontiac is like a sort of wanky American TR7!!

Next Autoshite group save? I'd definitely be up for this....

This isn't going to be a popular opinion....

But for some reason I like that camo pattern Cavalier.

I don't think I'd buy it though, I can think of better ways to spend £750.

DOHC 16v! That was a bit snazzy for the yankees at the time wasn't  it?

Also when I saw this;

I was thinking "The fuck? D, Dvilnod?" Lol.

I have to wonder how that camo Cav steers on those RWD Manta wheels?

[Craig the Princess]

I don't think you almost had Paul Walker in your 1.4 Peugeot 307, not the way his mate was driving that Porsche.

Decent advert too. Had 3 Cavs in my chequered past so always a soft spot.

[montytom]

This came up on face book. I dont know how to do links from my phone I'm afraid

[Skizzer]

This is magnificent. It’s even still on Michelin TRX tyres.

The Quad 4 actually was a really modern engine for it's time, DOHC and 16 Valves in a 4-cyl were still pretty unusual back then, especially for a car from GM. They had some impressive outputs in some tunes, apparently a bit rough running though before they added balance shafts.

Opel Monza alloys? I'm out then. 

Amateurs.  Completely the wrong offset for a front wheel drive vauxhall.  I bet the handling is like flying a plane with broken Flaps and Slats and Aerions? Or an omega with worn wishbones.

Not Monza

probably Manta.
