Bit quiet on here...

by rips » Wed Oct 01, 2014 1:19 pm

Where is everyone?

I know show season may be over & many may be thinking about putting their Calibras away for the winter..
It would be nice to drop in here once in a while & see some chat.

What do others do during their Calibra's off-season. Mine doesn't have one. It is my 1st car. I can't really call it my daily because I get to work by bike & train.

I want to get a little fitter over the winter.

Always seems to go like this for a month or so after the show season ends, then people start to talk about plans for next year.

Same things I do everyday, just without having to think about anything Calibra related. :)

Well, can't avoid that at the moment unfortunately as James's SAAB B204 conversion kicks off at Andy's this weekend but after that, definitely no Calibra related thoughts for a while!

well i'm currently getting the grunt work done for my new garage for the car, its only going to be a wooden one because of where its being built but it means the calibra will be in a garage over winter rather than just sitting with a couple of covers over her :D
BETTER TO HAVE A CALIBRA AND NOT NEED ONE, THAN NEED A CALIBRA AND NOT HAVE ONE!!!
