1985 MK2 Prefacelift Vauxhall Cavalier 1.6 GL AUTO For Sale

Here we have for sale my much loved Mk2 cavalier estate. This particular car has the 1. 6 carb Auto in GL form. This gave this 1985 cavalier some creature comforts over the L spec the majority of these estates came in. The GL spec gave it power steering and heated electric mirrors. As this was a dealer demo for Greens Vauxhall of Rainham (kent) it also had the optional extra headlight wash wipe too!

I purchased this car from a lady called Pauline in December 2017. The lady’s husband approached me knowing I like my old Vauxhall’s and asked if I would be interested in it. It had been sat in their garage for almost 7 YEARS! After putting some press fuel and a new battery on it started and run upto temperature perfectly. The auto choke works as it should and I drove it straight to the MOT station. It failed on brake im balance which I then went ahead and fitted new discs and pads on the front and rear shoes. The car then passed in December with only 1 advisory for slight corrosion under body.

I have since then had the car fully serviced including plugs leads and dizzy cap and a full check over by a garage who had nothing but admiration for how solid the car is and is in exceptional condition for age.

The car affectionately called Pauline changes through the gears perfectly and she has no knocks or bangs.

I have the owners book pack, 2 keys and the little service book that’s held in the drivers footwell. I have a few old MOT’s but little service history. The garage that looked after her during Pauline 17 year ownership is still going so I’m sure they would be able to confirm the service history. The car began life as a Vauxhall demo. Then a gentleman purchased the car in 1986 who owned the car until 1990 when Pauline purchased her. I am now the 4th owner. The original dealer supplying numberplates are still with the car along with the tax disc holder and a period Vauxhall sticker in the off side quarter window.

The car gets so much attention where ever you go and is a fantastic every day classic. The car sits at 70mph fine on the motorway and returns Strong MPG for a 33 year old Auto!

The central locking, heated mirrors etc all work as they should. The only thing that is left that needs attention is the blower motor. I think it’s seazed and will need freeing off.

There are very few good solid examples left and as with many classic prices over the last few years these will start to climb. Whens the last time you saw a mk2 cavalier let alone an estate!

I am open to sensible offers close to the asking price. New house forces sale. Cash on collection only.
