1985 Vauxhall Carlton CDi Estate 2.2 from UK and Ireland
Summary:
Powerful, comfortable and not too thirsty
Faults:
Heater motor brushes.
Electric windows/mirrors.
Trip computer.
Central locking.
All fixed myself on the cheap.
General Comments:
After a BMW 318 (total rubbish in my opinion) the Carlton 2.2i was a treat even though it was getting on a bit. It was quicker, more economical and great to drive.
Some niggling electrical faults, but considering the age I didn't really mind. It was my fourth one and won't be the last.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
