I really regret selling my 93 5L VP HSV ENHANCED CALAIS. I owned it for 15 years and was my daily driver. ..............

Totally agree, had the same model from new (company car). One of the best cars I ever owned. Looks white in the picture but the colour was gold. The car was so low that the exhaust would hang in the driveway of our underground car park so I would have to enter using the exit!!!

None of them, because I keep them until they become an uneconomical mechanical (or rust) money drain.
I would like to have kept my VN 5.0 Calais, but it was just not worth it at the end.
The one that I don't regret was the LH SLR ..... what a horrible collection of badly designed metal that was.

Beautiful car!Gold too. Didn't see many in that colour around. Mine was lowered too. Had to go on extreme angles in driveways etc. Lost count on the amount of times i had to replace rubber exhaust mounts. It was one of the best cars i ever own too. Had done over 300K but motor was still so strong that it would have easily done another 300k more. I had more regrets selling it more than selling my HJ Monaro.

early 70's XJ6 jag with chev 350/turbo 400 was a cheap conversion, but not the fuel or the lead thong soles
