Or the lovely* Cascadia or wtf they call the convertible Vectra, possibly the worlds most boring car to try & pose in.

You're all making me think of shit now. Have a Ventora......Not that one, this one was a prototype based on what would become the Carlton/Rekord E.
Why do manufacturers never build this stuff?

Looks like a really long Maestro with fat tyres & a french grill.

Now you put it like that....At least it doesn't have that horrible C pillar hump that meant I couldn't look at a Carlton for several years, at least until they tidied it up.

And for you real Vauxhall lickers (no names...) a rarity that I have only seen the once......

Still taxed and MOT'd but probably of less value now than the tickets. DVLA indicates BMW engine but judging by the not-quite-parked-in-the-slot that is probably where it last ran.

I think that was more greeny than that....Although that blue one will be turning green before too long.

A very special order , the 1st owner had form for big Vauxhall estates . There’s pictures of her in her PA and PC Crestas around , although I’ve never seen one of the Transcontinental Victor ( Ventora?) she had in between.
