a credit to its former owner that car, very nice, especially the interior. drove the diesels as taxis on g and h plates and loved them. never a problem and handled really well. cant believe it was that long ago!
 not sure i'd part with 1500 sovs for it though. :o

Had a 2.0 GLS on a K as a company car, 50K per annum for three years. never broke down once.

Good grief it was nearly 20 Years ago!


I said the exact same thing today Andy...... Someone was talking about 2.8 Capri's and I said "I had my first one in 1991, good god that is 20 years ago!"

How time is flying by....

I wonder how many vehicles produced today will look that good in 20 years time? Or are they now a throwaway every five years product now?

Nice motor but I never took to the Mk3 as much as the earlier shapes..... had a 2.0GLS MK1 & an SRi MK2 both of which I loved. Ony seems a few years ago Iwas enjoying them but was over 20yrs ago! :'(

in 2007 i bought a cavalier 1.8 colorado for £50 as a part ex all because it had a crack in the windscreen. Was almost mint with 52000 miles. Kept it for a few months and sold it for £285 with 4 months tax and 8 months MOT. Its alot for what it is but im sure someone will pay close to the money they want for it.

I'd buy & run it quite happily but as you say not for that money The price on cars like these is a tough call. Not in Glasses guides but not classic enough to establish a value in that market...yet!

  That said like Mk1 Golfs, Sierras, early Astras etc. they are old school/retro up & coming classics that are loved by thier owners so for these cars in the middle ground the value is what someone is prepared to pay.

   Still nice to see them like that though! 8)
