my dads just got his 3rd calibra this time he got the 2.5L V6 which is very nice and fast :D

its an SE9 and has 16" bbs alloys in a champagne finish, rear irmscher spoiler, full black leather interior and its 10 yeras onld and the engine bay is spotless and only done 41000 miles so its also as new as my 2002 corsa.

this was my second car (Y) was fantastic till it broke beyond repair. Made money back in parts though.

Mine was purple with cream leather. The seats in these cars are some of the nicest ever. Electric and heated HMMMMMM


The insurence isnt too much though :) get a quote now i think you will be suprised.


btw the 2.0T is faster than the 2.5 V6

nope the handeling is grea it can sick to a corner and accelerate all the way through it. much better than the other cars hes had. this ones is the last special edition so has suspensin set up by lotus so the ride is much smoother

yep there great and hardly even used, its has aircon, traction control, dual airbags unlike others and a standard blaupunkt headunit and speaker setup so sound is quite good


btw the 2.0T is faster than the 2.5 V6

yeah i know but you wont find one of those thats only done 41000, plus the turbo will probly be dead by ow and will need to be redone.

the best calibras are the ones with the 3.2 v6 form the vecy maybe when this has done aother 40000 we will think about doing that

only plans for it at the moment are:

colour code handles
respay bumpers drivers side rear
angel eye headlights
possibly a laguna splitte if it will still go up and down the drive

your dad could sell them bbs wheels on corsa sport for mega dollar! thats incase he thought of changing alloys! tbh i prefere the cav alloys on them. me parents used to have a red calibra red top years and years ago, i loved it!

I like Calibra's only problem is now that lots of chavs and pikeys get hold of them put combat kits on them and ruin them.
