Hi I ve just joined up and last week acquired a mk2 cav saloon with a genuine 17k miles. From the outside you wouldn't think its only done that with the rusty bonnet roof and boot but the arches sills and underside are mint! Will get some pics sorted soon! Iam on with the carb as the choke ain't engaging with it being the varajet 2 not many about! Keep looking for future updates! 

Welcome. Where in the country are you?

A couple of photos of your Cavalier always goes down well around here

Thanks iam from blackpool. Will sort some photos out soon. 

Looks good on the steel wheels

Cheers all I've done is matt blacked them and lowered it 60mm. Plan is to keep it ratty.

MOT exempt sir?  Old 4 door has to be my favourite, less rattles...

China blue scabby Cav.    Check

 

 

Nice mate. 

Loving yours .

Just got a set of 5 sri teardrops with caps so gonna get some rubber for them and get them on. 

Finally time had came to get the cav on the road. Now being tax/mot exempt I went straight to post office and got that sorted. Fitted sri alloys gave her a wash and Polish. Been to work in her today all good upto now. Getting use to the brakes which I want to throw a set of 256mm one one if any one has any for sale?

Looks awesome 👌👌

How low is it? 

 

Cheers its 60 front 50mm rear. 

Cool motor. Tailpipe reminds me of my old Piper Tornado

Thanks yes it was an old sportex tip I had laying around so welded it on to original backbox. 

Been having trouble getting fuel in the tank since getting on the road,so took off filler neck setup and tipped it upside down and this fell out!! That will be why I carnt get any fuel in then! 

WTF was that? Had the same problem with a Calibra but it was the anti siphon insert that had moved down the pipe. Very embarrassing at petrol stations.

It's a thermometer looks like someone has kindly dropped it in. Know your pain trying to fill up. 

Well went to fuel up and went ok other than fuel coming out of breather pipe. There is no blockages now as took it all off and made sure cleaned it all out blew it through with compressor! 

Cavs look best slammed on their arse

Thermometer is a tad random 😂
