started a new job two days ago and on the second day as we was passing the part ex lot I spotted it. the cavalier of dreams! so ran to the (more of a fast walk) office and an hour later it was mine. mot till october and a months tax for wait for it??? £44 ENGLISH POUNDS. it drives bloody great (it did) and I cant remember the last time I saw an estate. THEN I GOT BORED DOWN I had the wheels kicking around in the workshop but I aint sure on them tho. I think it might look better with some banded wheels?? only choped the springs for now will do it propley at the end of the month and convert to coilovers. will put some more pics up tomorrow when I get chance

£44!!! Sweet deal there man! Looks so much better lowered and i'll agree with you on the banded rims idea rather than the modern looking yokes. Nice going though!

You jammy beggar. Looks a damn sight better, lowered, but not sure on those wheels, think you're right about banded steel wheels! I love the ridiculous way the boot opens on these.

Wow they're going for mega money and really rare. I'd go for 16" steels off an Astra with as much drop as physically possible.

44squids! gosh that is a mega deal and a half ;D I can not even get enough fuel to run a car for £44. it looks very clean, seems it was well looked after. liking the dropage, I think a set of nice wheels will do this car some justice. sorry to be ignorant but are these RWD?

Yup agree , they're a rare old thing now . We did see this one at Billing last summer though..

Not a fan of that blue one, but yours is looking sweet. I also dream of one day owning a Cav estate. Built in Australia I believe.
