Some 7 years ago a member of my family offered to sell me his (Carmine Red) MK2 Cavalier estate, which he had owned from new and which had some 24,000 genuine miles on the clock. Another attraction was its towbar. The princely sum of £250 changed hands. I had at least one good year left in the Volvo I was then running so I SORNed the Cavalier.

Hi to all, I am a new member but not new to cavaliers. Now looking through past history my cavalier is very well known to some of you. I would like to point out that I will not be selling this car on and will keep this car forever. Im a Serious enthusiastic. Feel this car has been neglected from previous owners buying then selling for profit. Not me I truly love this very special car and am now preparing to restore her and can't wait to bring her a long to meets and keep her as a true member of this club. My name is Ricky and I will put up some photos shortly.

Hi guys My names Dave and i'm from Hampshire. I currently drive a 2006 Vectra C and have been looking for a MK2 cabriolet to mess around with. No such luck yet as all the ones i've seen online are too far away, or require too much work My first ever car was a China Blue 1.3L Saloon on a Y. Recently been feeling nostalgic and always wanted a cabriolet hence my reason for joining this fine looking club and hopefully owning a MK2 (again) in the not too distant future. ;D Dave
