On the Surface:

A nice example of the Mk II Cavalier Cabriolet, this car is finished in Black with a matching soft top, complemented by a Grey cloth interior.

Maintenance & History:

Owned by the vendor for the past year and showing just two former keepers, this Cabriolet comes with its original Vauxhall handbook wallet, which houses the original owner’s manuals along with a service book displaying 7 stamps – evidence of care across its life. In the past year, the Cavalier has benefitted from a number of sensible mechanical improvements, including new shock absorbers, battery, radiator, front discs and pads, front anti-roll bar links and a replacement fuel pump.

The Model:

Launched in 1985 and built by coachbuilder Hammond & Thiede in Germany, the Mk II Cavalier Cabriolet combined Vauxhall’s running gear with stylish open-top motoring. Practical yet characterful, it offered buyers a family-friendly convertible with usability, a role it continues to serve as a classic.

Sale Insight:

With low ownership, useful recent maintenance and supporting history, D198 UPU represents an appealing entry into 1980s classic convertible motoring.

Estimate:
£1,200 - £2,200
