Still got my Calais which I got 15 years ago also still got my Nitron which I have had for 7 years. Both are off the road haven't driven the Calais since October last year. Also got 2 Calais which I am slowly pulling apart for spares.

got rid of another, dont have another on the cards for a while unless a clean rust free vlc thats not crack priced comes up and we all know the chances of that

Well, still have my Gunmetal Grey VLCT, haven't driven it for a couple of years, but have been doing a lot of work recently to get it running again. RB25DET is complete, on the engine stand, just need to bolt on a turbo and drop it into the bay. Few other minor things to do and I should be driving it again very soon! Sold my White RB25DET Calais recently which I really miss, which has been the encouragement to get this one going!

Well Steve, I still have the LE after 9 years. Probably drove it last time Aaron was back. Too hard to pick it up for a drive + working on the wagon now. Drove that last week

got mine, never driven it haha

Still got it after something like 15 years, done a lot more work of late and had her out on Sunday just gone.

Currently at painters getting done black..Fully forged 355 stroker going in with about 100 shot of nos going in

Had mine for about 8 months now (8th VL) driven it a total of 2 ks in that time . Spend 80% of my free time doing bits and peaces to it, when im not working on the new business or working 12 hour shifts. Worked on it 4 hours ago extended loom and fuse box in glove box. Started by moving the battery to the boot and one thing lead to another lol When it gets tough or i read a tech article that states "its a 2 hour job" "piss easy" and im on my second day i just remember this. A good job is not done fast A fast job is not done good The way i see it its a hobby more than a car. Weather it be electrical, wiring, mechanical, modification, experimentation, customization. I cant see my self getting board with any of these things. In the same way females will never get over make up n hair styles and sell all there dresses. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Nah. We didn't have a CT cruise last year and doesn't seem like one this year (April is the usual month). From the sounds of it not many running VLs anyway at the moment lol

Recently sold the 6NA But still got the V8 Missus is nagging me to sell that too,new baby & bills to pay Blah blah blah. Gets driven every couple of months. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I have still own two vls silver one is stripped waiting for me.to smooth the bay and paint it the gold vl is pretty much ready for a tune after a few small things left to do would be keen on a ct cruze once ive got my tune !!!!

I've at least one vl ever since 1999, Y2k in a nice vl, first child and house with 2 vls until 2007 and since 2008 I've had several in stock, these days it's driving one or two occasionally on the weekend or just working on them. Can't everyday drive them anymore.... Police defects, possible accidents, theft, break downs make driving one a pain. But I still get a kick. I've got a an sl, a berlina, and a Calais.... All with their own quirks and demons. Good to give one a drive every now and then to a cheap thrill.

Still got mine, don't even see it let alone drive it. Last time was prob custom cars an coffee. Pretty much over it lol

Still got mine after 8 years. Havent driven it properly for a couple of years. Just sits there. Pretty sad. Need time to do more work on it which I haven't done in a year or so. Dammit!

Still got my Calais Turbo - Illusiv. Had it for going on 15 years now. She runs, just needs the battery to be charged, a new clamp for the throttle body to hold the intake pipe in and the fuel filter to be put back. Tyres are rooted due to flat spots. Drove her about a year ago. Walky is good, took her out about 2 months ago. Just needs a battery. Had the walky for 8 years now. Bloody hell, time flies.....

sold mine ..... knew id regret it,and guess what Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

that could be the plan,id buy one now but need room first

Still got mine and have been slowly finishing off getting everything put back together. Still running a Toyota 1UZ but all the electrics have changed. Fired it up on the new PCM the other day .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...&v=4m9Po7u24YQ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=4m9Po7u24YQ) Uses a VY cluster driven by data from a VR PCM running custom code I wrote for it. Has a custom ignition module to interface the Toyota crank/cam sensors to the Delco PCM and to handle the twin dizzys (or seq spark with 8 coils). Also a module to get the VR PCM to control the Toyota gearbox.

Was wondering if you still had yours, got any pics of whats been done to it, I spoke to you a few times over on letreme when I was building mine.
