Mk3 Cavalier Owners Club | Vauxhall Cavalier Dot Com

Its my own fault by continuing to drive it with a knackered ring gear.
It only had to last one more day before it came off the road for the winter.

That'll be part of the problem then.

Wow, its been 7 months since I've done any work on the V6, finally got around to puling the engine out to fix the ring gear and starter.
Might even fit my longer set of headers while im at it

Have stopped watching TG, boring and predictable.

103 this morning at Asda.
who is going to be the first to see below £1?

The bikes looking good, has it had a full rebuild? Yes its been its been fully stripped, engine rebuilt and the rest put back together using new genuine,new pattern and used parts. Suzuki have an excellent range of vintage bike spares available, I can get most bits within a few days. Looking forwar...

No, haven't done a CBT yet, the up-front costs of even a moped are high, there's the CBT, £120ish, gear, all I'm after is helmet and gloves at the moment for round-town riding, and the vehicle itself. But, providing I get all that sorted, the running costs are peanuts compared to 4 wheels. Plus I l...

I'm planning on switching to 2 wheels very soon, primarily because of running costs, and the freedom and versatility of parking and storage of mopeds/bikes rather than cars. Love my Harleys as I'm more into cruising type vehicles, but I don't mind most other sports/road bikes. Glad to hear it, have...

This is the reason the Cav has taken a back seat this winter,getting towards the end of the restoration of my RGV250. Owned it for nearly 2 years bought as a non runner. Looking forward now to spring to get it on the road. 140kgs with 62 hp, supposed to do 0-60 in 3.7secs. http://i74.photobucket.com...

Now down to 105p in Rugby.
Probably done 1500 miles since the first post, pretty much exclusively on supermarket fuel of different brands with no problem whatsoever.Passed mot emissions fine aswell.
Supermarket petrol is rubbish?
Not from where I'm sat.

James,

Its in the café up Weidersberghorn near Alpbach.

Planetc,

Its one of the nicest pics we have together (and I'm less grey in this one)

Joe,

Removed all of mine years ago, as all others it was soaked.

This is me and Mrscav6 otherwise known as Ange on holiday in Austria a few years ago.

My dad used to get a company car which the last 3 were Cavs,2x mk2s and mk3.He racked up around 30k miles a year in all of them, so they must have made an impression on me for their reliability.

Snowed in rugby a while ago,enough to cover the roads

Who has had any snow?

No Cavalier was equipped with an X30XE as that particular engine wasn't available until the introduction of the Omega (which came AFTER the demise of the Cavalier!). Fitting a 3.0-litre to a Cavalier is easy IF it is replacing a C/X25XE. To my knowledge, no GLS was fitted with a V6, which might exp...

Whats anyone forgot to do today?
Finished work until friday 2nd and forgot to get rid of a load of milk out of the fridge.
3 litres of yoghurt anyone?

Thats with Ricky Gervais, cannot stand that tw@t.
Big bang theory is great, seen each episode several times and it still makes me laugh.
Inbetweeners, great series, crap films.

I bet I have the oldest console from when I was very young... About 30 years ago. Anyone heard of a Philips G7000. The biggest cartidge was about 4Kb. Cartidges were bigger and uglier than the later Atari stuff. Graphics quality was similar to the late 70's tennis games -lol I have an Atari 2600 wi...

When I passed my test in 2006, it was £0.89 for unleaded Fiver lasted near enough a week

When I started riding my ped on the road, it was 80p a gallon.
Mind you, I was only on 78p an hour.

Well done for keeping everyone guessing, but sorry that is :sick Is there some ulterior motive for your choice of wheels? Glad you approve :lol: The wheels are factory-issue Silver Shadow II 15-inchers with colour-coded, pin-striped, locking chrome hubcaps. They're wrapped in massive whitewall tyre...

2.8 Granada or Capri?

There is a difference between a local issue of bad fuel, be it contamination at the refinery or at the filling station and a nationwide problem of poor quality supermarket petrol. I am only talking about petrol anyway as I have little experience with satans fuel(diesel) except for a clapped out Zx t...
