I have had a few cavs and they drive bang on, being the cdx does it have the black bosch key fob you have to press to get the car to start, this was the only problem on the one i had?

Nice. Carl

That looks very smart!

I remember my Grandad had a succession of these as company cars (he didn't retire until he was 82) and I always like them.

One of the drivers for the local cab firm uses one and whenever I get driven in it it always amazes me just how narrow/small inside it is compared to the barges that are its modern day equivalents.

I remember them seeming like big cars when I was younger!

Nice, seeing old 'ordinary' stuff in good nick always makes me smile. Saw a decent but obviously used frequently Mk2 Cav today.

I was only having a chat the other day with a mate about how its getting to the stage where you see more of the last Cavaliers still on the road than the earliest Vectras.

My Dad has always had Cavs since he bought a MKI 2litre in brown with a brown vinyl roof!

Thats the same colour as his MKII which was my fave.

Only went downhill when he got a Vectra but now has a diesel Mondy which he's really pleased with.

Yours looks a peach with a good spec.
