Used Chevrolet Cars for Sale near Jonquière, QC

“Robert” was a 1988 Cavalier wagon that my family acquired when I was 3 years old. According to my parents, I gave him that name myself. It figures then that I have always felt a strong connection to this car. We were born in the same year, and we grew up together. Robert was a part of many of the formative experiences of my life. My family drove Robert across the country from East to West when we moved to Oregon from Virginia, and I experienced my first foray into a foreign country (Canada) from his back seat. When I got my driver’s license at 19, I finally had the chance to drive the car that had meant so much to me during my childhood. By then, Robert was beginning to show his age. But I saw him through rose-colored glasses. Instead of being frustrated by the slow response of the pedals, I loved how it made the car accelerate and brake so smoothly. You just couldn’t rush the car to do anything, which made for a laid-back driving experience. The steering was loose and off-center, but I appreciated how light the wheel felt in my hands. Robert soon became a symbol of my independence. My parents let me drive him wherever I wanted, whenever I wanted, as long as I told them where I was going. Driving Robert to work during the first summer after college only strengthened our bond. Every moment we spent together taught me new lessons in car control. I found the limits of his lateral grip and braking force (which didn’t take much effort to reach). I practiced braking so smoothly that I couldn’t feel the car rock back as I came to a halt. I learned to parallel park and back into parking spaces—Robert was the perfect car for this because of his big square windows and thin pillars. When he finally died of a clogged exhaust system last year, I was sad to see him go. But he left me with a valuable gift—a passion for driving that has stuck with me my whole life.

I love this car so much i dont think i will ever let it stop running! i bought the car for $300 with holes in the floor because it had been jumped, an engine that was about dont (271,000 miles on it!) and the automatic tranny was totaled! Then i replaced the engine with a 2.8L v6 and a 5 speed transmission but I wanted more power so we dropped a 3.1L v6 in it hypertech chip, msd ignition, and accel wires and the torque in unreal! this car looks like a serious piece of work (or crap) to a lot of ppl lol but i wouldnt trade it for anything!! I love this car!

Best car i ever had if i wasn't starting to rust. Would have loved to keep it.

aerodynamics of a brick,and that pretty blue 4 door. Wait what? it got around 30mpg. and could smoke any escort in town(except for that one GT i seen) i had only one problem with it and it costed me only about 25 dollars to fix it. I drove the heck out of itand sold it to a new teacher at the school that i graduated from. She drove it until she got a brand new car and never had a problem with this car.

i think my car is a great car... Its cheap on gas, but yet has a little power under the hood. very fast at pull outs, and can hold very easy in the road, handles very well.. not to heavy.... pretty with a good paint job.. put some nice rims on her and shes a queen....
