Advantages: Seats are comfy

Disadvantages: Everything else

Had a 1995 'N' plate cav 1.8 'Classic' edition. Oh it really was a 'classic', it had an 8v engine and I had bought this car as a short runaround in between cars and I really wish I hadn't.

I had the car 3 months and had to replace/fix the following

HT leads
Cam Cover Gasket
Thermostat
Fix the bonnet release cable because too slack
Fuel FIlter

Car was not very reliable to start with and was glad to see the back of it, I did only pick it up for £350, but cavaliers don't sell for much more than that these days. It wasn't very fast at all and provided no real driver feedback, it handled the road like a barge and bounced up and down like a pogo stick over bumps. I will never buy a cavalier again and probably not a vauxhall even though some of the newer models look quite nice. Im just not a Vauxhall person. Im sure the SRI/GSI models provide more excitment, but i prefer things like EVO's and Seat Leon's.

I wouldn't really recommend this car to anyone, It was worse than my Rover 400

Summary: Don't buy it, save your money for something better
