1980 Vauxhall Cavalier. — Cheap buy, but roomy for a family. Had multiple problems, but nothing I couldnt fix. Put new brake lines on it then found that front brake connections were different (newer) design than rear ones!! Cylinder head bolts were designed to be single use only. Not on mine.

Primary Use: Family transportation

Pros: Nothing awesome

Cons: Electrical problem I never figured out.
