Alan was superb. delivered my classic car on time when he said he would. He even gave me some tips on how to maintain it. If I ever buy another classic car, Car Cave will be My first port of call. Thanks again Alan!

Alan sold my car within 1 day & everything he told me he'd do he did. Was here at the exact time he said he would be & very professional through out the sale I would highly recommend Car Cave for buying or selling your classic car. Thanks again Alan

I can honestly say Alan was very informative & helpful when dealing with him, and he had a great selection of cars available. The MK1 Escort my father in law just bought, was even better than described, and I would recommend Alan & his company to anyone looking for a classic car, but especially if it’s a classic Ford.

1 Previous Owner, 1982 Ford Cortina 1.6 GL. This car was imported from South Africa some time ago and was sold to one of our customers, whos retired. He went right through the car mechanically, fitting lots of new parts and also upgraded to a five speed box. Now that the cars finished , hes looking for another project, so he done a deal with us for something else. We have the V5 showing 1 previous UK owner, which was us. Body - SA spec Cortina MK5 shell. All original panels and never been welded. Car is very solid underneath. Only thing to note is a bit of bubbling on lower rear quarters at the back under the bumper, otherwise a really clean shell. Paintwork looks original and in the main is good. Few light scratches picked up over the years but they are only original once as they say. SA spec full metal chrome bumpers. New headlights, rear lights, spotlights, badges, grille replaced, chrome trim in window seals replaced.Mechanics - Car starts, runs and drives like it should. The customer that had it is very handy with the spanners and went right through the car, so its on the button ready to go anywhere. Being an SA model this is a factory fitted 1600 crossflow, rather than a Pinto. Its had the following parts replaced, steering rack, track rod ends, front bushes, starter motor, speedo cable, mph speedo fitted, upgraded to 5 speed box, clutch, propshafy, brake cylinders, flexi pipes, heater system flushed out, oil pump, filter, plugs, points, condenser, full exhaust. As you can see a right few quid has been spent on this meaning that the next owner should not have to. With this car being SA spec its got a five link rear set up, which makes them handle a bit better than the equivalent UK model.Interior - Good dash top, door cards, carpets, headlining.Seats have no rips or tears but front seats have been replace at some point.Wheels - Deep dish steels with chrome trim rings and centre caps and new 205/60/13 tyresVery original old car which is ready to drive away.You are welcome to come and see the car. we have a ramp so you can look underneath. Delivery can be arranged if required. Please ask for a quote. Any questions please ask or call 07879 557668Thanks for looking
