1981 Vauxhall Chevette L - 1256 Auto - 1 Owner, 13,000m SOLD

Vauxhall Chevette 1256 Auto

Here we have my beloved Chevette up for sale. The original purpose for this car was going to be to build an ultimate Chevette rally car, but honestly it’s almost too good for that. I picked the best one I could find... it really has done 13, 000 miles from new with the former keeper a little old lady who had owned it from new. The red carpet was a factory fitted optional extra!

If you’re interested in turning it into a rally car it is a rust free example, NEVER WELDED, 3 door hatch with NO sunroof... so the ideal candidate. Being the automatic too it has the wider gearbox tunnel.

If you’re not interested in turning it into a rally car.. I’ve just MOT’d it which it flew through! The only advisory being that the front discs were juddering a bit which I am subsequently sorting out.... will have new fitted.

The engine pulls as well as it did in the day, 3 speed auto works perfectly and is genuinely a lovely car to drive. It has been periodically waxoiled and dry stored its whole life... which is why it is in such good condition. If I didn’t have so far to commute I’d be using it as my daily!

Recent work:

New tyres all round
New exhaust system
New engine oil

Bad point

On the passenger side front wing and door there is a dent which is a little unsightly but actually the only flaw in the otherwise brilliant paint.

Any viewings or other questions are more than welcome

Cash on collection is preferred or bank transfer must complete before I release the car
