Re: vauxhall cavalier 4x4 turbo
Looks a half decent car. That rear arch seems to have had repairs done to it or it could bea dodgy camera but the crease line is not visible which usually means filler or replacement. I'd have a good look underneath and the skirts hide a great deal.
Best of luck with your new car.
