would like to break it cos as you know they are worth about 3k in parts but the missus wont be happy if i break it on the driveway.

Anyway price is now reduced to £1800, that is a bargain
Posted By: MrPhil Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 26th Apr 2010 12:38am
people are put off due to the transfer box.

Break it.

Price the parts well on MIG, even spend £15 on VVOC and sell the engine and loom on there because iirc a local lad was after a full loom and engine for his vec B.

well it can still be driven in 2wd and i have a spare working t/box to go with it.
Many cav turbos are sold (prob at least 50%) with a faulty t/box.
Anyway im in no rush to sell and i would rather see this cav back on the road than broken up into bits (yes i am crazy lol)
Posted By: DavidB Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 13th May 2010 6:33pm
Nice one, these aren't really broken up (the Calibra's are). Hope it goes to a good home!
Posted By: Abbot Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 13th May 2010 7:13pm
Thanks Violet.

**PRICE DROP - NOW £1700**
Posted By: chris_gilly Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 14th May 2010 7:31pm
if you want that tranfer box throwing on, give us a shout wink
Posted By: Abbot Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 15th May 2010 12:29pm
If you can fit the transfer box then that would be very very very much appreciated. Free tea and bacon butties lol
Posted By: Abbot Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 19th May 2010 10:38am
Just want the car gone now so final price drop

£1500
Posted By: DavidB Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 22nd May 2010 11:41am
How much do these go for fully repaired and MOT'd/taxed do you think?
What would it need for the MOT? Do you have anymore pictures? Can you pm your address/number so i can have a gander? Ta!
Posted By: MrPhil Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 22nd May 2010 1:42pm
Seems an ok price that, shame most if not all 4x4 cavs have transfer box troubles.

Most owners mismatch the tyres and they munch them, paintwork in good order/12 months ticket/standardised car and your looking at £2400 imo.
Posted By: Abbot Re: Vauxhall Cavalier Turbo - 22nd May 2010 6:16pm
Violet - empty your pm box so i can pm you.
As MrPhil says they go for about £2500, even seen some go for £4000+ but they are in perfect condition.
I had the car on the road for about 3 months after it passed its MOT and then it was taken off the road.
Not sure what it might fail on if anything but your more than welcome to view it
