Cavs like that are getting rare! I cannot remember seeing one in saloon form with a TD.

bit grubby/aged but not too bad considering cream/silver




...iv also done a bit research into its history and found one of the previous owners on a mk3 cav group on facebook... said he loved the car, owned it twice and replaced the engine to a 81k mk3 astra lump (still isuzi)... also explained that it was a previous stolen recovered wich explained my concern about the drivers door etched number... he sourced a replacement door that same colour....
also shown me a picture of when it had silver rims, hence why im tempted to change back to silver as you can see
