Hey guys just wanted to let people know that there is og calais turbo on ebay being sold by a guy called mickrb30 saying that the car has always been garaged and serviced and owned by a 52 year old. The truth is he bought it off my mate no less than a couple of weeks ago for around $3500 and now has it at $9800 . Just saying be careful cause he is obviously telling a few porkies.

A9Y's were all 1988 built and (as far as I'm aware) have the later model interior with filled in headrests (what people call Series 2).
That Wagon has open hole headrests, and you can see in a couple of the pictures that the seat material has a pattern going horizontal as in a Berlina.
Like giantbrandon mentioned it could be an early HDT Built Calais Wagon, but it certainly not an A9Y.
