Great to see you have her back Mike and that she is in the land of the living again. All the nitty gritty bits take time but you will get there!

Good to hear that you are soldiering on with it, make sure you under seal it well and it will last you a lot more years to come.

It must have been on the long since defunct CavalierCrazy website. Absolutely nothing left from that site now. :-/ Very sad that the site demised but it was yet another that was killed by FB. It used to be really busy and then FB got popular and the rest is history. There was lots of useful info on...

As I understand it the £150 XS applies if I don't use their approved supplier (in which case it's probably not worth putting in a claim). The unresolved question is what the situation is now if I told them in advance of my intention of going to someone with a workshop rather than getting their trav...

In my experience Adrian Flux will not screw you over, if i'm honest paying for a windscreen and then claiming it back is not something i have heard of before. Adrian Flux only use the best fitters and companies, when I had a windscreen replaced on my Carlton it was replaced by Cambridge Windscreens ...

Sorry to hear that you are laid up in hospital, hope you are well again soon.

I personally use tapatalk for browsing on the mobile and find it works well.

Good to hear that you have your Cav back Mike, sounds like they were right muppets that delivered it back, annoying thing is that it didnt really need to go anywhere in the first place!

Look forward to seeing the rebuild.

Ah yes, sorry I forgot it was a V6 me bad sorry!

You can see the bulkhead from under the bonnett!

Good to hear that your cav lives on Mike, sounds like you have been properly messed about by your insurance company. They had no reason to take your car away, the assessor could have come to your house - hope that you checked it when it came back if it had been sitting in a breakers! Some insurance ...

Looks great Kirsty, good to see it is still going strong.

Get it treated bud before you have to start having it welded!

Great pictures of a very fine car.

Well you'll all be glad to hear the cavalier didn't sell before Xmas and the deal I was doing with her fell through. So what that means is the old girl is staying. I'm ordering up some new parts for her as we speak, new heater matrix, new radiator and new rad switch and temp sender unit. So that me...

We dont have to have our head in the clouds like the others! lol

Totally breaking the rules.... I am a simple / foolish soul... I know that there are hundreds of thousands of better marques and models. but I am happy with what I have. The only improvement would be for it to last for another 20 or so years... Therefore: - Limited budget = my Cav in roadworthy con...

Ive never heard of Enfield. Will be doing a few local shows and might do the Dutch manta club show again this year. My local shows are Weston Park transport show, Trentham gardens transport show (fathers day) and a few other small local shows. I usually do the German classic car show at Haigh Hall ...

Hats off to you for keeping this fine car on the road, lots of great work carried out and a credit to you. I go to Billing every year so i will look out for you this year and come and say hello. Please do, theres always beer in my caravan fridge :D :) I will see you there then! You doing any other ...

People should be branded on there forehead for there crimes ie thief, sex offender, murderer ect ect. I like the Red Dwarf answer to these sorts of crimes. If the try to set something on fire then they get set on fire. If they try to steal something then something of theirs gets stolen. A shame tha...

Anyone know where to buy a new sticker for the trip computer screen? I have never seen them for sale seperately tbh, I used to buy units that didnt work and then change the fronts over for ones without scratches. You could try a sticker supplier and see if they can copy for you although I think you...

Had this happen to one of my Cavs a while back, called the aa and they bent the door back and all was fine. Scum like this deserve to be castrated at the very least and for subsequent offences electrocution after being flogged with a spiked stick is the only answer.

I know this has been asked on here before but just looking for some clearer clarification so appologies for repitition. Just looked up the kerb weight of my Cavalier 1.6 and it seems to be listed at around 1084kg so if i wanted to could I go up to this weight on a braked trailer or caravan? Was thin...

[quote="Super89" ]Its all about turbos today.. They do a 2.0 twin turbo diesel model. I like them and would have one tomorrow if i had the money. Plus most of them little 1.4 turbo cars drive like a naturally aspirated engine.[/quote] Wash your mouth out with soap sir! lol Think of all the...

Nice one, looks very nice. I need to get a 3rd brake light on my loon, is that a genuine vauxhall high level brake light? I was going to fit the Vectra central locking as well but wanted an alarm as well so i have gone for an aftermarket alarm which has flip keys with it that i can get cut to match ...
