1978 was my first Vx - Cavalier - ran it 3 years and no issues other than a van pushing me off the M8 into a wall near Shotts. I had several Cavaliers after that and apart from the odd niggle they were OK i.e. they never left me on the hard shoulder waiting for a breakdown truck.
Most went back with 70-90K on the clock.
1995 bought an ex Hertz Astra for my twins to get to Uni - 20 mins by car, 60-90 mins by train, bus & a fair walk. Bought with 8K and sold with 90+K - only the odd niggle - cost £8K amd got £3k T/I - good car.
