1987 Vauxhall Cavalier 1.6 L

The classic 1980s repmobile, uploaded alongside the 626 and Sierra to represent mid-size family cars of the time. The styling and detailing on the Cavalier was a bit more dated than the Sierra, but countered by having FWD. I imagine the 626 would have felt a bit smoother and better-engineered than both of the others, but would have been rare as a company car.

 

I thought this final facelift was a successful update. Always liked these wheeltrims.

 

This particular one appears to have done just over 50,000 miles. I can't imagine that's second time around, as the Cavalier did tend to get tatty as the mileage went up.
