progress of my calibra

[Allys Cally]

well had a wee road trip down to Ashington today with v6 steve, thats her been dropped off to get the front bumper and bonnet freshened up for next year

[v6 steve]

heres a pic of Allys car when he 1st got it just shows the amount of time money and effort that he has put into her



you can see the small part we tried to polish by hand

[Allys Cally]

yeah she was in a poor state mate when we picked her up, just shows that when you put in the time, effort and of course the cash anythings possible.
and of course the old girl now has 2 trophies to prove how far shes came from way back then

well another purchase arrived today in the post, thanks to Big Ian
the flow pipe is leaking slightly at the crimped part, so a wee upgrade will make a difference and look better than the usual black rubber ones

BARGAIN...

Over here, those tyres cost $860 or GBP580
