Parked up on a drive near my sister in law's place.
It was in really good condition "S" reg in an orage colour. This one had a boot.... Read more
They are surprisingly good,I had one for a few years before getting an E39 540i BMW.Mine was 'chipped' to 280BHP but handled it well.No problems in four years,the interior is a bit low rent.a few bits of trim fell off but never let me down.Vauxhall have produced some good stuff like my 83 Cavalier SRI which I had new and was leagues ahead of Sierra's and stuff.For a few grand,worth hunting down.

I actually think the interior's aged quite well, the Mk3 Mondeo's dash seemed much nicer at the time, it now seems very dated
Use to have a 1.9 petrol and it was pretty good. Got it up to 120 and I swear the quicker you went the more planted it felt so the little aero that the car had must have worked really well. The engine didn't sound too stressed either. Had to let it go in the end due to electrical problems. What a surprise on a Citroen. Read more
It's quite hard to find a nice one. I'd happily have one if I could. I remember clearly that even Jeremy Clarkson - yes I know! - even gave it a good review on old Top Gear. There's probably a video of that on YouTube somewhere... Of course, he's never had a good word to say about Rover since mind you, which is a shame. Read more
One could always submit an "exempt" vehicle for an MoT-spec Test.
Whether the tester would confirm, in writing, that the vehicle met MoT requirements (assuming he was willing to test the vehicle), and whether that would satify insurance companies in the event of an accident, remains to be seen!

I also thought that the exemption of vehicles over 40 years old comes into force this year, not next year, but for my own peace of mind I will continue to have my classic car MoT'd regardless of any changes. I like to know that it has been examined by a professional.
"But I checked it myself" will not impress the Police or the Insurance Company in the event of an accident, even if it is not your fault.

Nice but early versions look like it borrowed parts, engines and interiors from an E39 5 series parts bin.
Nothing wrong with that as that was an excellent car. Read more

I had a new Chevette estate as a company car in 1977 when I worked for Granada TV rental. They had previously used Vauxhall Viva estates. The Chevette was a nice car but very basic by today's standards. They were a common sight on the roads up to the late 1980s. Haven't seen one for ages though.
