Hey everyone.

It’s a long shot but I sold my 1988 Calais turbo about 14 years ago to a bloke called Adam down in Wollongong.

It was an original n/a Morning blue Calais in absolutely immaculate condition, 107kms when I bought it. I put in an a8 turbo motor, manual gearbox, new diff, brakes, radiator, reconditioned high flow turbo, and plazmaman actually based their first hidden front mount intercooler off my car.

Absolutely loved that car and would love to see if it’s still around and where it is! I’ll attach some of the last pics I took of her.

I think I saw some pics of it a few years after I sold it doing a big skid out at power cruise.

Cheers everyone!

doing a big skid out at power cruise.
That was the 2nd time the guy did the big skid. He got caught the 1st & 2nd time. Result, car got crushed.

Hey, only kidding. ;) Sorry, about that. I suppose not funny! But at least its not your car anymore.:oops:
