## Vauxhall Cavalier: The British Compact Car of the 1980s and 1990s

The Vauxhall Cavalier, a compact car produced by the British automaker Vauxhall Motors from 1981 to 1995, was a popular choice in the UK and other European markets. The third generation of the Cavalier, manufactured from 1988 to 1995, solidified its position as a reliable and comfortable family car. This model, the subject of this repair manual, offered a range of engine options, including four-cylinder petrol and diesel units, providing a balance of performance and fuel economy. The Cavalier's design reflected the trends of the late 1980s, featuring modern, aerodynamic styling and a spacious interior. It was offered in various trim levels, ranging from the basic base model to the more luxurious GLS and SRi versions, catering to diverse customer preferences.

While the Cavalier was primarily known for its practical and reliable nature, it was also capable of providing a fun driving experience. Some models, like the SRi, featured sportier suspension and styling, offering a good balance of handling and comfort. The Cavalier was particularly successful in its early years, earning the title of "Car of the Year" in 1982. However, as the 1990s progressed, the Cavalier faced increasing competition from other manufacturers. The introduction of more modern and fuel-efficient compact cars eventually led to its discontinuation in 1995. Despite its eventual demise, the Cavalier left a lasting legacy, remembered as a dependable and affordable car for British families. A comprehensive service and repair manual for this model, like the one mentioned above, can remain a valuable resource for enthusiasts and owners looking to keep their Cavalier running smoothly.
