History of the Vauxhall Viva
Built between 1963-1979 the Vauxhall Viva was a small family car that was highly similar to the Opel Kadett launched a year beforehand. There would be three main series of the Vauxhall Viva; known as the HA Viva series (1963-1966), HB Viva series (1966-1970) & HC Viva series (1970-1979) with many variations in this series of GT, SL, GLS as well as Estate & Saloons versions plus a van sold under the name of the Bedford HA.
Independent Tyre Test - The Results
In the world of modern tyres it is commonplace to come across a tyre test. Sadly in the world of classic tyres, the investment never seems to be there to do a proper modern tyre test. However, a German magazine in July 2016 conducted this modern tyre test using classic tyres. This classic tyre test has been translated from German to English. What is remarkable in this tyre test is quite how well the PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CN36 classic tyre performed in the table at the end. The scores in this table are not scored in relation to the other tyres in the test, so when a score of 1 is recorded, then that is a perfect score for a classic tyre or a modern tyre. It is wonderful to see that these classic PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CN36 tyres can give such exemplary results.
