SL for suuuuuure. White over asteroid, as very well represented by FLY03L, or BT1 spec. Personally, although seen some awesome Calais, i've also seen some horrendous ones, the line between a good example and a bad are waaay too thin for me. Go the SL, Vene's, some nice 19s and just cruise it. Plus, although frowned upon, as far as im concerned, the less electrics in a VL the better. Unless looked after it is a recipe for disaster!
