Go for it! I'm intrigued thought it was just me being faddy! When we had the cavs i'd never driven rear wheel drive so that may have something to do with it, didnt know any different!!

Yes they are. I've allways wanted one & this came for the right price. SD1's have risen in price over the last few years & that's my plan for the Coupe. Not to mak e a profit, just to have something unusual that will increase in value. (i hope)  :-/

I don't hate Veccies but they leave me cold, no input, nothing. Can't explain it. Loved Cavaliers though, cracking motors.
   Makes no sense i know. :-?

I've recently bought a 2.6 miggy. And I still own a 1973 Triumph Toledo. This was the first car I ever owned and I'm now presently nursing it back to health. :y

so your paying a small fortune in road tax too!!!

i have 4 cars in total, well 3 and the wifes! but there all "ours" realy!

What else have you got matey?
there in my sig but a brief description is,

Range rover, has been converted to lpg, has 60mm wider track, and Koni adjustable shocks all round, a tuned exhaust thats been de-catted and a K+N to enhance the breathing for around 265-270hp, maybe more!, uprated brakes as well with drilled and slotted discs and EBC6000 greenstuff pads.
it certailnly shocks people when it acelerates past them at speed, lol!
(need to find a 4x4 rolling road!)

a 1988 toyota supra 3,0i turbo thats been rather heavily modded! im still doing lots and it has been on axle stands now for 2 months but must be ready for the mkiiisupra owners group club stand at JAE at end august lol! its currently running around 345hp

Rover 216 cabriolet with honda twin cam (D16A8) but also a little special under bonnet and a few bolt on toys too to help performance!
power hood and usual electrics, its a cool little car soon to be lowered as i have a set of lowering springs to fit next week! its sooooo high!

The only weak point is the bearing cage on the gear box which wears making it whine. The T series engine is reasonbly robust so it should last you a fair few years.  :y
