I'd love to deregister it and keep it in storage, but I move around every few years due to my career so it will be more of a liability.

As for price, a quick look on Carpoint shows clapped out VP V8 Calais' going for minimum $5k, with 250,000km+ on them.

I think a V8 HSV Enhanced Calais with 147,000km, with stereo, electric sunroof and all the original HSV bits still in awesome condition will be worth a couple of grand more than that.

We'll see. I'll take it for the major 150,000km service, get a RWC, detail it and then gauge some interest in it.

No, I dont have a clue what brand it is.

I'm thinking it might be an aftermarket job as well.

I don't really know, I haven't been in another Calais without a sunroof.

Yes, slides in and tilts. All electronic.
