Calibra nearly ready
« on: 16 April 2012, 19:08:38 »

Heres the calibra I have been getting back on the road after it had been standing, fair bit of work gone into it  and it's now Mot'd but has an intermittent electrical issue.

Here's a picture of my mate's mint and original J-Reg Calibra Turbo alongside my Omega at Billing last year...



Good Calibra's are getting hard to find now, and are sure to become a future classic.  :y

I like calibras all the time.. never had the opportunity to own one.. and now its hard to find a mint example ..
 
yours is white which is my preference too.. but personally I would go for white or silver wheels :y

I always liked the calibra, you don't see many these days and yours looks lovely. Not generally a fan of white cars but yours does look really good :y

So what was the problem with the calibra? They didn't seem to be around for long.

Btw... The black estate is stunning!!

I've said for some time now that once the " Barry Boys " with their grotesque body kits and spoilers have moved onto something else the Calibra will become sought after in standard form.
I know a guy over here who has salted away about nine standard , turbo , 4x4 and DTM specials + several more spares cars . All were bought for reasonable money and are factory original.
I've been in and through them and they are lovely cars .
Lovely car , enjoy it... :y

Incidently ,I've got a photo somewhere that I took of a Calibra on 17 inch FL elite wheels and it looked stunning.
