About this car

The HC Viva was Vauxhall's last small family car before the Chevette and Cavalier era, and the three-door estate, sometimes called a shooting brake, is the least common body style to turn up today. This one is a 1973 car with the 1,256cc petrol engine and a manual gearbox, finished in gold with a black interior that the dealer describes as well preserved.

It shows 38,000 miles. The last MoT was passed with no advisories and expired in 2020; the car is now exempt because of its historic status. Paperwork is thin: old MoT certificates, a battery receipt from last year, badges from classic events in 1998 and 1999, and the current V5C. It is described as running and driving well.

Performance

The maker’s official figures for this model, not measurements of this car (HC-series Viva Estate (1970–79). In 1973 it was offered with 1256cc and 1759cc engines, and the variant doesn't say which. No confident factory figures, so performance, weight and engine size are null.).

Engine position: Front-engined
Induction: Naturally aspirated
