Well since I can't sell the calais and were having to move 3 cars to get our road bikes out I have been thinking of parting the calais out. It's full leather, 4 yo gas system, 18x8 wheels, super low springs and shocks 6 months old, new radiator, cluster with 245ks on it.. What's the price value for there parts? Just a ruff price..

Hey mate, just wanted to say id be intrested in some parts IF you did decide to strip it, i recently replaced my radiator and it cost me about 150 so as a rought guess your second hand one may be worth around 70-100 if it's in good nick? As for wheels and stuff it depends on condition brand etc etc as for the other stuff someone else should be able to help you out, cheers

Depending on your defenition of a couple lol the wheels may have a bit of value if they look alright, are you looking to get rid of it all or keep bits and peices? Your money makers would be, (again all condition wise) The engine, wheels, interior bits and peices, and transmission and im sure you could find others that would grab the drivetrain and exhast system and other little bits, theres probably stuff im missing but thats my thoughts anyway hopfully its of some help others feel free to chip in a correct me if im wrong :)

ive wrecked a few cars in my day dude and let me be the first to tell you the time and effort its going to cost you parting it out plus people breaking your balls not showing up or calling back your better off to get rid of it as a whole... plus youll have parts hanging around for ages too. what else does it need for roady? did you hit carsales or gumtree yet?

The home PC crashed when I was doing it on car sales, just waiting for abbey to fix the computer when she ges home tonight about 10..nothing has changed since I bought it except I lowered it. When I got the road worth I had to put new motor mounts fix a power window switch and windscreen and oil seal at the front was leaking and that was it 2 years ago
