Finally bought another vl. Been waiting for a cheap optioned one to come along. Found this one on facebook and took the chance to buy it straight away. Came with - calais pop ups - calais chromes - upper and lower door moulds - calais garnishes - calais guards - vr acclaims & 15x7 ceptors - disc rear end - LE sideskirts So my plan for now is to get rid of the 25l (late model blue interior) Berlina interior is currently for sale and I plan to put my madiera interior in. Clean it up alittle and make it into (what left) a calais mock. As it stands - straighten up front bumper and moulds - original radio (berlina) - sound system - repair boot rust (being done already) - calais wheels The car will be on club plates in 3 days. After that I plan to keep it clean and treat it well. The night I got it: (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/ShirtyRob/media/10531290_294261040752876_1690695460_n_zps88cf839c.jpg.html) (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/ShirtyRob/media/10525016_294261160752864_692577067_n_zps5f5a0f88.jpg.html) LE SKIRTS: (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/ShirtyRob/media/10543287_294260977419549_1557624498_n_zps37f1ae58.jpg.html) Exterior: (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/ShirtyRob/media/10524113_295171883995125_1162611076_n_zps85450277.jpg.html) (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/ShirtyRob/media/10531116_295171870661793_905104799_n_zpsb3c96cdc.jpg.html) Interior: (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/ShirtyRob/media/10544875_295171897328457_90887968_n_zps80ffda41.jpg.html) (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/ShirtyRob/media/10564845_295171913995122_1471601974_n_zps34b3e79c.jpg.html) (http://s1323.photobucket.com/user/ShirtyRob/media/10533735_295171957328451_1933968708_n_zpsd99b06e6.jpg.html) Any more thoughts or ideas would be appreciated, Thanks guys.

Congrats on the pickup mate. Looks like VK style sideskirts and not VL LE though. Good luck with the car.

Car has been kinda cleaned up. The wiring on the thing was pathetic. Seriously, I have never seen worse wiring LOL. Bought another dizzy as the CAS was shot, it didn't have enough power to take off at lights. So yeah thats kinda it for the vl, I'm looking for some black door cards (spray painted) as I need some rough ones for my daily.
