1989 Vauxhall Carlton gsi 3000 3.0 from UK and Ireland
Summary:
One of the best underrated cars ever built and a dream to own
Faults:
Everything was great until the fuel pump died, then I was told I needed a new ecu, some old biddy ran up my rear and broke the brackets on either side of my bumper and broke of the tow hook cover. other than that its been the car I wanted it for bags of power which is great in the dry can be a bit hairy in the wet, and I drive it very easily in snow or ice now. had a 24v gsi before now its in the garage for spares. bit of ice jumped out in front of me on a bend,
General Comments:
This car has all the comfort of a luxury car.
The power is always there.
Parts can be very hard to find.
Parts are quite pricey.
A really underrated car.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
