Ill prob get grilled for saying this but for me if vlgmh had the standard grey s1 calais interior and non-polished fr19's it'd be 10 times better In terms of engine bays it's one of my favourites!

ADVNCD was my laptop background through most of Highschool. (AND JET3LT in yellow spec has been my PC background for a few years too) ADVNCD is why I bought a Berlina. :P Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

VLGMH would be the only calais I've seen look good with silver side skirts. Great looking car though, fast and streetable! What's ADVANCED best time to date?

great thread, tend to agree with VLGMH, love it but interior could have been better, colour is a bit yuk, old school days are the best
