    Default Mumbo's new ride 94 VR Calais

    Hey Guys,

    After having almost driven my 1993 VR into the ground, body work is crap, suspension and steering needed fixing, sump had been smashed in, crack in the Panhard Chassis, I decided to save up since having some work (a weeks worth of work) and go and get myself another car. Came across this beauty on Gumtree for $2000 reduced from $2500. I paid half and my dad paid the other half as my 21st Birthday Present. It has a very little ding in the drivers quarter panel and also a little one or 2 in the bonnet, apart from that the clear coat and paint is in excellent condition. Have to get rego for it, but have a feeling it will pass with flying colours

    Suspension:

    LOL Yeah they were painting it on the weekend. I want to supercharge it, but may just end up selling her soon and get something already Supercharged.
