The 70s cars are and were much more sought after, the number of people wanting one is much higher than a VL turbo, and... yeah I really dont get why you said that. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

My bad dude sorry Yeah the Torries and 70's classics are a cult car aswell but what i was getting to is the 80's era when the VL Turbo was first released it followed on in the 90's and today hope it makes sense Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Heres a XR6 Turbo running 8.2 @ 168mph http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ru9azvnAi5Q The XR6 Turbo are becoming popular now. VLGOD the fastest VL Turbo runs 6.99, I wonder if we will see a XR6T run that. Just wait until the G6E Turbo becomes cheaper, I think they will become like the VL Calais Turbo. Here is one running 10s. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPUrOBIw2hM
