Hey all, I currently own an '88 Tx5 turbo, and despite my arguments with bluvlt (hey Boi!!! ) I'd rather own a VLT any day. So here's the list - feel free to add suggestions - maybe I'll be able to make enough money from them to buy a VL again 1. Sell it to P&O as a very unique boat anchor. 2. Sell it to Circus OZ as the wonderful mutant child of Mazda and Ford. 3. Sell it to the US government as a secret weapon for Osama - leave it near his cave, he'll go for one drive then kill himself, its how it makes me feel sometimes... 4. Sell it and buy a 1/18 scale VL - its about all its worth.... Resale is less than an 84 nissan gazelle, or a late 70's 260z.... Scary huh? 5. Finally, sell it to Letterman to do his top ten list on - sure to rake in some cash there......... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

1) sell it to don burke so he can put it on burkes backyard as a garden ornament 2) u missed out on selling it to big brother to use as explosives (fireworks) for the final eviction and Peter could have marvelled at it 3) if you need money, sell your bicycle....more buyers out there want a bicycle.

how much you want for it?? I'll give you 5 bucks for it- I'll use it for a bush basher!! Has it got insurance? If so write it off!! You'll probably get more than what its worth to sell (around 10 bucks). Put it this way - you were dumb enough to buy it surley you can't be the dumbest person out there. Theres got to be some young kid out there who's just got their license who wants a car!! i'm glad you've seen the light.

Everyone's entitled to at least one moment of complete stupidity in their lives - even if it involves buying a S**T car. Wasn't your first car a Camira Sir Calais? OOPS, sorry, it was a Leyland P76!!! lol No offence intended, just having a dig at ya!! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

mmmmmm Camira.... arglh *drool*...... lol Man this is my calais is my first car. I went three years without a car to get this car. Yes I know how ya feel. We all make mistakes, you'll get the car you want man, I waited three years and drove my oldmans 1986 Suzuki Swift GTI, man I hated that car but it had to do. just put up with it and save for the car you really want. what ever you do if you want a VL turbo wait and get one don't cut short and get a n/a you'll regret it. Trust me I did. Now I've got the job of converting mine to twincam than turbo (I may as well do it properly).

Can you boost it? If you can, give it a bit more balls and some stickers that say rice stuff (Tx5 Turbo Type-R) Then sell it to some sucker for a good price. HaHAHAH. Yeah do that.

0r you could get someone with a f#ck truck to rear end it and write it off. Would be asthetically pleasing too Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Well these are all good ideas, but from the sounds of it, youd get better performance out of a ride-on lawnmower on nitro In the mean time, if u got any spare time, can i race ya down the 1/4 mile on my penny farthing? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
