Possibly looking at a vl calais 5l. Turbo might be going soon! As much as i love turbos. Ive wanted a vlc 5l ever since i layed my eyes on vls . hopefully all goes well. PS. My mate has just bought a nice clean vl (full group a kit) Pretty worked 5l. 5spd. It's red. Bloody loud and goes hard, he'll be coming too ^^. I'll try get him to sign up to this site Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
