Hey mate wasnt having a go at your car - its clean as. But ya gotta admit when ya look at that first pic it looks like theres something gone wrong around where the front gaurd meets the front doors. Must just be one of those trippy photos.

steve, stop posting pics man, you are making me bleed and becoming more regretfull for selling it.
by the way guys, paint job is 12 years old and its the original holden tuxedo black, and have to say that this is one of the cleanest, most original black calais in the land. it still smells like new and every single feature works A1.
Steve call me when you're in my area, wana put both side by side and take a pic since i don't have one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOPGN plates are available and might consider good offers.
TERRY.

it had 130 000km or near there, all original with books and never missed a service ,every 5000 kms, all i did was put the FR18s , PLATNMs old aerotec interior and heavy duty suspension at the perfect height.
don't worry i still have VLGMH, maybe that's why i let TOPGN go, but still very regretfull, lucky i still have a set of keys, or maybe i should stop saying that just in case god forbids the car goes missing.
LOOK AFTER IT STEVE, I KNOW YOU DO ANYWAY

Saw TOPGN at Bresciani once, been one of my favourite vl's since. Danny said it was your daily? Did you ever get pulled over much?
