| 1544.1 | Get a cardbord box from Crazy's instead... | BELFST::FLANAGAN | BLOW your probs away with a TURBO | Wed Sep 11 1991 14:39 | 7 |
| I think it's pretty damn stupid to supply a car with a tape holder of
this nature. Apart from losing the boxes themselves it is not easy to
see at a glance what tape you want to play. May as well just chuck them
in the door bin, and delve in a bit like a lucky dip, every time you
wish to change music.
Gary. (keeping them in the boot would be much handier ! :^) )

| 1544.2 | Wot a place for it. | NIBLIK::THOMSONS | | Mon Sep 16 1991 15:52 | 4 |
| If you give the cassette holder a firm yank it pops out with no problem
.I dont mind the cassette holder its the rediculous place that it is
located thats the problem.

| I found that when ever I went to put the seatbelt on or release it, I
found that I would invariably eject the cassette holders by mistake.

| B***** stupid cassette holder, I ripped mine out ages ago. Just
replaced it as I get a new car tomorrow.
If they must supply casssette holders, do like ford, they give you a
partitioned shelf which takes cassettes, box and all.

I saw a J reg Cavalier SRI this morning with alloys!Does anyone know
whether these have always been optional or whether this is a new sales
ploy.The wheels made the car look a bit special(unlike those plastic
wheel-trims).The alloys are the same ones as on the Astra SXI(10 or 16
narrow spokes).

| re -.1
It just so happens i've got a brochure on my desk at the moment and
yes those wheels (5 1/2J x 14 with 195 60 vr14 tyres) are an option.

| 1544.9 | Cav's now with ABS as standard as well as air bags | COMICS::SHELLEY | Bugs B Gone | Tue Apr 05 1994 11:04 | 9 |
| Anyone who has just ordered a cavalier may want to stall it a bit or
ensure they get one of the new spec models.
According to an ad on TV they are now fitting ABS as standard and
believe me that will be a useful thing. I find my non-ABS cavalier
a nightmare on wet or greasy roads. It does great Torvill and Dean
impressions.

| So does my Calibra, but it's got ABS - see another note
for a discussion of the effectiveness of ABS in slippery
conditions.

| re: .9
I had a new Cavalier delivered today, and it had ABS (although I hadn't
specified that as an option), so that was a nice surprise.
I'm glad I didn't specify it as a �100-a-year option...

| Re.9:
I've driven about 80,000 miles in the following Cavaliers over the past
five years:-
"F" Reg SRi (no ABS)
"H" Reg CDi (ABS)
"F" Reg 1.4L (no ABS)
"L" Reg 1.7TD GLS (no ABS)
They all vary in power, weight, suspension, tyre type and size, however
none of these cars perform badly on wet and greasy roads. I think you
should look at other possible reasons for your lack of grip. If you are
still struggling I can give a few pointers or you might try and book a
course at your local skidpan.
