Very nice car, I've always fancied a Cav' Turbo. Are they reliable? What's the insurance like?
Posted By: mobile Re: my motor if n e 1 interested - 29th Mar 2004 5:00pm
insurance was 620 fully comp with 2years ncb and cat 1 alarm.
as for reliability ive had mine 3 years and had no problems that any other car dont have ie pads, discs oh an a cat but that was due to some garage ****in me dizzy up with silicone and startin a lovely fire in the cat (t1ts)

Posted By: mobile Re: my motor if n e 1 interested - 30th Mar 2004 8:55am

Posted By: Anonymous Re: my motor if n e 1 interested - 30th Mar 2004 10:43am
they look well smart, i like shiny rims tho, was tempted to get mine done instead of spendin the money on repairing them <img border="0" alt="[cwlmao]" title="" src="graemlins/cwemotions042.gif" />
Posted By: Ando Re: my motor if n e 1 interested - 30th Mar 2004 4:15pm
Thanks for the info' fella...how much are these going for now? I could look on auto-trader, not sure what's good condition and what's not though wink

So how much is a non-ragged one in your opinion?
Posted By: AX_125 Re: my motor if n e 1 interested - 30th Mar 2004 4:54pm
Is it fast?
Posted By: Ando Re: my motor if n e 1 interested - 30th Mar 2004 7:04pm
They're very f**king fast. Tear my FTO a new a**ehole wink
Posted By: mobile Re: my motor if n e 1 interested - 31st Mar 2004 10:31am
pretty fast for a big car, 152mph and 205bhp standard with four wheel drive but subtle lookin.
descent examples gotta b lookin 2500 to 3500
i payed 4400 for mine 3 years ago, that was 2 owners 60000miles and full vauxhall service history and 5 full new sets of tyres and receipts to proove. but these cars are becoming rare because once the transfer box goes (sorry to say it) the nova brigade jump on em an rape em for the engine(wot a waste) at last check vauxhall charge 3k for a transfer box but you can get a direct replacement uprated box for 1600 from a company in sweden.
