Hi. my name is Deano. i am in harrogate N Yorks. I do not have a mk2 yet but i am hoping to change that asap. I have never owned a mk2 but my parents have including a carmine red 1.6L hatch (A869PUM). Has anyone had any encounters with this car? anyway as for me i am looking to get my first mk2. i am a mechanic and am looking for a smallish project for my spare time. i lucky actually because my girl friend is encouraging me to get one and says she wants to help. i am thinking of building a mk2 with a redtop in it and leather interior etc. also i thought of adding a VXR style to it but without loosing the character of the mk2. if anyone has any views on this or knows of a suitable car please let me know. i have to say it has to be a hatch but i am not bothered what spec the car is. cheers for now.

Hello, ebay seems to be churning them out at present.  A few of us post them in the "Cavaliers on ebay," topic in "Cavs for sale," section.  Keep an eye out for it.  The hatch gets my vote, and an LX at that but I am biased  ;D

Current mk2 stock: 4 LXs: white c20xe, blue & red std, blue LX parts car, blue GLi, Richies Saabilier & monaro VXR

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV daily (joyous planet saver.....well carbon offset for the ro)

yeah i was reading about your project and seen the pics. you've got a lot of work to do. good luck with that. i looked at a few on ebay. i nearly went to buy one until i read about it on here (the sri that had been reversed into a skip and every1 sed run away). i was hoping that someone would have, or know of, one for sale in reasonable condition.

really mate, dont take peoples advice to much, i would allways have a look at a car myself and make my own mind on it, we all have our own ideas of how bad a car is.

Shaney's is a prime example, everyone said how crap it looked but turned out to be a real gem for £150, if you dont have a look, your never know  ;)
