Hi,

My name is Andrew and i have just bought a cavalier 1600L from ebay.

see link - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=330033082125&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=014

I am looking to change the engine but pretty much leave the car alone. I am looking forward too getting stuck into her and I will update with pic's too.

cheers!

HI Andrew, welcome to the site.

Nice find there mate  ;D

Welcome aboard, you did well for that price there mate. There are plenty of people here to help you with advice tips etc... would be great to keep her looking standardish from the outside for the shows etc.. this year!

I can sniff another 16v transplant looming.

would make a nice sleeper

thanks for the reply's. I am going to leave it standard on the outside apart form sri 130 wheels and lowered suspension.

yes, a 16v transplant due to start next week.

Do you think £255 was a good price for her?

my opinion only but...

Nice car, bad intention.

PS The suspension on your car is the light duty version.

End of the day if that engine is fitted correctly it feels as if it could have come off the production line in there.

If it was a once in a lifetime car id be up in arms once upon a time, but if your only going to own one mk2, and it's not an SRi I think fair enough.

What about an SEH?

sorry, i think your mad to change this wonderful standard car, low milage, rare in colour and hardly a speck of rust but then again, it is your car.

and buy the way, WELCOME

hi & welcome i agree with hallo. keep the car standard and return it back to original condition.
