    I think it goes on what's written on the logbook.

    So there might have been a few that just said Cavalier GSi, But most would have said either Cavalier GSi 16v, or Cavalier 16v 4x4

    I have an Opel Kadett GSi 16v Champion. All it says on the logbook is "Opel "Kadett"

    I know where there is a relatively good 4x4 with 52k on it. Sat out the back of a workshop by me. Not been used for about 4 years.

    I remember it , there's a Bordeaux one about 15 miles away from me and it's been on the drive for years .
    I called on the door and an old lady answered .
    She said it's her Son's and he doesn't live there , had a look around it but tbh it's well gone .

    Thats the problem, you would have to actually want it, otherwise it would be an expensive mistake.

    I might still buy that 4x4 to break. But it would need to be cheaper than he's asking.

    That's a good price for back then. I bet if you'd kept that it would still be worth at least that now....zero depreciation in 10 years.

    Think I remember that one actually.

    When I was about 17/18 I used to drive my XR2 to college with a mate past a house with both an Astra GTE 16v and a Cav GSI in the driveway. We would always look down the drive admiring said cars and thinking how lucky the guy must be.

    3 years on, and I was driving an Astra GTE 16v, and him a Cav GSi

    get some pics of these 4x4 gsi's up on Vauxhall Cavalier Mk3 Owners Club; they're rare as hen's teeth so would be nice to see pics of those that are still knocking about
