Faults:

The car is wonderful. It's so good I'm still as excited as the day I first got it.

The seats are a bit old, and yes there is some rust, but you can go for miles and miles, and it's great to drive, even though it's got no power steering.

The brakes are wonderful.

I could go on forever; it's wonderful.

General Comments:

In the last five years I have had to do a fair bit of welding, but the engine has been as sweet as a nut for the last 11 years I have had it.

My dogs Dax and Twiss love it. I have had up to 4 dogs in the back at one time, and all had lots of room. My dogs are not small; Dax is a black lab and Twiss is a German Shepherd, and the other two were Rottweilers.

Nothing it's a good old battle axe.

General Comments:

For nearly 20 years old people would be surprised I hated vauxhalls till I got this car and it stands its ground ad don't get beat a lot.

Faults:

Rust, rust, rust and more rust.

New carburettor at 30,000 miles.

Engine seized at 40,000 miles.

New choke cable at 50,000 miles.

Broken tailgate and door hinges.

Central locking and heated rear screen failed after three years.

Upholstery does not wear well.

General Comments:

This car had some serious problems with rust. I got the car as a company car in the beginning and was beginning to rust within 18 months. I kept the car as I was offered it at a bargain price, but it was an MOT failure at the age of six years and was scrapped.

Reliability was very poor.

Damp starts in particular proved problematic.

1.6 engine provided reasonable power and economy.

Reasonable comfort, but ride quality not so good.

I have since owned subsequent Vauxhalls, but I would never buy another Cavalier again.

Faults:

Nothing has really gone wrong with this car, it has been extremely reliable and very good on the petrol issues.

I think that this car has done extremely low mileage, the seats are OK, but have started to wear out. I feel that I got a real bargain for the money and have got a lot of car for £1995.

I have just had the brakes changed, and had the oil and filter replaced.

General Comments:

My Cavalier has a 1.8i engine and can take on a lot of cars from stand still.

This car has a lot of HP and can leave all you in your Japanese sports cars for dust!

I have just had the seats taken out for some leather ones to go in.

The speakers in this car are top notch and I have left the sound system standard.

The cabin area is still the bomb and looks great. I think that all cars should be like the Vauxhall Cavalier.

I think that this car is ace and will leave all your cars for dust!
