yes 9k sounds reasonable, but if the right buyer who is after an immac low km's original calais comes along, they would probably pay more than 9

I paid just under 6k for my 88 calais in November... absoultely mint with 180k on the clock, 2.5 inch exhaust and extractors. Interior is beautiful and really good paint - platinum gold. I think you'll be able to get 6k for yours

yeah they're rarer in WA so pretty much standard ones will go for more than they do in VIC...

why sell it dude? Keep it.... If it is as clean as they say, there's gotta be some sort of comp for you to enter and have a good chance. I bought my imac VL calais 87 S2 for $5,000 but the lady wanted $7000 for it. I was just lucky my dad can sell ice to an eskimo! But you should be able to get well over 8k for it! Anyway dude, good luck with the sale..

i would sugguest storing it for as long as you can. in theory it should go up in value more if its not driven and kept in new condition. but i reckon if we did a search you would find cleanest vl in melb about 100 times. there are nice ones out there, no one wants to sell them though....
