VT vs VX Calais

What do people think is better VT or VX Calais.
I like the lights on the back of VX Berlina's & Calais is it possible to swap these lights on the VX to a VT Calais?

I'm thinking of buying one but need to know if it is worth the extra g's for the VX.
Cheers

If it is a series 2 VX then i'd spend the extra, but yes you can put the VX lights into the VT

yeah i'd definitely look for a vx2 if you can find a nice one, they fixed the problem on vt-vx1 re the rear inner tyre wear. i also personally prefer the look of the vx over the vt.

in the end, it all comes down to money. you can make a VTS1 Calais look like a VXII Calais and save a few grand in the process. then again, if you buy a VXII Calais, you will not have 2 spend a dime...my experience from VT's & VX's, go VX! much better ride & very good value for your money (compared to VY's & VZ's).

Cheers,

i have had both. and the VX Calais was as much of a step up as the VT Calais was from a VN Calais.

The VX has smoother and better handling compared to the VT. Less creaks and rattles. VT was an excellent car though

Ye VX Calais is much better, it stands out. I wouldn't bother buying a VT and putting VX lights, etc. on it, at the end of the day its a VT.
