The Vauxhall Cavalier was a large family car aimed
primarily at the UK market which had a relatively long production life
between 1975-1995, during which time it came in various body-styles and
underwent several upgrades. Despite the launch of the all-new Cavalier
just a year away in 1987, the company upgraded the existing model in
1986 adding revised grilles and rear lamp clusters similar to their
larger Senator vehicle, together with further improvement to the
equipment levels. A new 2.0 Litre engine option became available on the
CD, SRi and GSL trim whilst the availability of the fuel injected 1.8L
unit was revised down to L trim.
For its second release in 1:76 scale oxford's four-door Cavalier in the
2.0 CD format, features all the 1986 revisions. It appears in a deep red
colour scheme with black trim, complete with sunroof. Registered E126
WGH from 1987/88, the interior is black with seating moulded in grey.
