Hahaha... can the Calibra (an ‘ok’ car - Give me a 325i E30 lol) lose it’s top?
A-Ha!

I thought the Calibra was the alcohol-free version?

I thought it was a fun free car - a bit Danny La Rue - all dressed up in a party frock
Then I did have several cavailers in my day including a GSi 16v 4x4 which was a great car

Heathen, I am more of a philistine I like the odd Vauxhall - Astra GTe was a great car back in the day, I had a mint green calibra as well but all show and no go for me, same as Capri (I had one of those as well), Cortina in drag.
I think the camper is a great idea but a caravan and a tow bar on the 35iS would have been better - best of both worlds that way :pok

That would get my vote too buts it too late now
If you do go own this route you'll be joing the Calibra forum
https://www.clubcalibra.com/,
just note though you won't fit in without some of these

That looks like an active forum - cant be many Calibras left now, all gone to the great scrapyard in the sky
Nice but think beige socks would go better

Afternoon all,
I have agreed a price to sell my car for subject to the potential buyer confirming that they want to proceed once they have viewed for £12,750. Just popped onto autotrader and if the pricing is right on the 35i for sale on there I may of undervalued my asking price. What would you do, sell it for the agreed price or ask for the similar prices on autotrader?
https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... sed&page=1
mine is a 2010, with less miles
https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-detail ... sed&page=1
This one has an upgraded hifi but same spec as mine.
Should I sell at the agreed price?

Why didn't you check prices first? Both links are for trade sales cars and they probably won't get full asking, therefore your £12,750 sounds about right for a private sale. If I was your purchaser, I would not be impressed if you put the price up once it has been agreed.
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.
F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

Trade will also have to pay VAT, cover warranty and any part ex allowance + running costs of the business etc.Pondrew wrote: ↑Tue May 11, 2021 1:34 pmWhy didn't you check prices first?
