    Calais V Aggressive look

    Hi All, I have the '15 VF Calais V V8 and love it to bits. I'm just wanting to enhance the look of the front view with a little more aggression in appearance and just wondering if others have done so it have some ideas. Due to the incline of my driveway I am unable to lower the suspension. I...

    VF1 Sat Nav fault - Last 5 searched Suburbs

    My Calais currently has an unfixable fault and i was wondering how many others have the same? When entering a destination into the search icon, the system wont display the last 5 searched suburbs. Even though the tab is there for it? My 2006 Honda Accord does as does all cars i have used do.

    VF Calais V 6.0l Fuel Consumption

    Hi All, Just back from an Easter trip where I covered 450kms and had an average fuel consumption of 8.9l per 100km. A lot of highway driving at 117kmh and some spirited driving showing the car off to some friends with rapid heavy throttle applications. Not bad I thought. What are others...

    Looking for some Car Washing Tips for my Black Calais

    Best way to reduce swirl marks is not use a chamois. The only way i dry my Harley's, ZX14r and cars is with a pet dryer you can buy for $70 from eBay.

    Did i make a good decision buying 2014 vf calais V V8??

    I purchased VF1 Calais V wagon 12 months ago and love it. Decided against the SSV Redline for many reasons. Far more creature comforts and passenger seat options, lower profille tyres and stiffer suspension too harsh for everyday driving and most of minw will be highway cruises where the...

    Thinking of upgrading to VF Calais

    Would have to agree with Cuda. I started looking looking at the same car as your thinking of and rnded up with V8 Calais V. The fuel cost difference over a year for me works out at $250. Less than a hamburger a week

    VF Calais V Sportswagon

Now i just send random live data files for AFR checking.Changed the car immensely with better induction sound, more response...
