Well as some know i bought this vl calais a few months back and @ the time of purchase it had a stuffed front bumper and faded paint leaking exhuast ect! since ive had the car i have done full major service, replaced front bumper with matching colour (bumper is only 4months old) fixed exhuast with new gasket, replaced accelerator cable with 2nd hand item,fixed pop ups (where not moving) thrown an alarm system on it $650 clarion head deck, set of xplod 6x9,s in the back on mdf parcel shelf and a set of pioneers 4" 2 ways in the front i went down to autobarn today to look @ some paint and found a colour that looks very nice anyway was wondering what everyone thinks its worth for a resale just curious to others opinions as to what you (if buying) where happy to pay! a few shots of the car in the light and the 6x9,s up the back enjoy! *BUMP* no one likes Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
