NEIL W Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Kenny, This has been on the market for about 4 years at the same price - I know it as I had a mk2 Cavalier Convertible before the TR7 & now you old Manta. Ok it looks like pimp my ride but was part of the large Patrick Collection who was midlands Garage Owner - he had TR8's - BL cars etc all with very mileage. There is no lower mileage Cav Convertible about - bin the bumpers & take them back to grey - must be willing to take an offer around your budget. It is a MK 2 pre face lift so has horizontal stripped rear lights & the deep spoiler. Grill is an Vaux Approved extra instead of the egg crate type. http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C181161 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
