Had one of these in the early 90s. Worst car I ever owned, broke my heart.

I had one if them in the early 00s it was a south african import a opel kadette club and on a 93 reg it was one of very few 93 kadette in country had a complete mis match spec engine was 1.4 injection and interior was similar to the Sri spec and had the gsi bumpers

Absolutely loved it one if my favourite cars ever.

Is it for sale in that tiny dealers stock ?
Hopefully it's won't be getting scrapped in Summerhill any time soon.

A friend of mine is looking to buy one exactly like that

I think it is, worth an ask! Looks like it's had a posh wash too

There's a very weird Toyota import in Summerhill spares, you can see it through the fence walking by... Haven't a clue what it is, difficult to get pics of. Reg comes up as something completely different.

Thank you just emailed the lead onto my poor friend who don't use boards or Facebook even..

That Jap import yoke you mention would upset me I would need to recognise every single car in the world or I'm not a true car nerd,
I be passing before the weekend and I will grab some pics too
