    its got about 350xxx km's on it..thats why ill be gettin a new motor.
    lowering it is on the to do list
    its a really clean car, but its got minor problems..the guy that had the car before me sumhow cut a hole in the metal in the driverside door for sum stupid reason, so the electric windows on that door doesnt work properly..also, the metal has been cut and bent in the back to fit 6x9's in. its just stupid little stuff like that..but everything else is fine on it
    i no, i no...the rims r bad, i dont like them and i havnt met any1 that has lol..they will definately be changed before i get it on the road, i dont really wana be seen driving with them lol

    I'd watch that parcel shelf, thats a write off if you get defected for it, or insurance discovers it.

    Very nice Calais! Shame about the previous owner cutting bits and pieces =/

    Looks very very clean otherwise! Good pick up I reckon, Hopefully it'll be roadworthy in no time!

    But wait... There's more!!


    But that's not all!!!
