Calibra convertible at Duxford today (now with photos)

[RobbieV]

It was up for sale a few months back but I don't know if he sold it or not.

Mark still has it

The Lumma Calibra (Marks) does have a boot. Ive seen it open.

Correct, but a very small one

[Shnoop]

a boot is a boot none the less

mmmmm nitro (insert drool smilie here!)

i like both but im sure Johns looks better with the hood down rather than up, I think that Mark's one cost about 14k to get done and that was years ago, i fancey doing one once the rwd is sorrted

It is good to see that the car was seen at the show, just to correct some of the items mentioned.

There is a boot space, this is and possibly more than the Lumma as it does not have all the lifting gear for the cover etc.

The car looks nothing like a silver cross pram ( it's missing the chrome braces ) lol, I suppose I will have to let the originator ov'e the comment off, as he is from Middlesborough haha.

go on John post a picture of the car with the hood down

[v6 steve]

John have you done any thing to the interia and what shows is it going to this year as i would love to have a good look at it if you wouldn't mind

[jonthevauxhallman]

If I can work out how to post some pictures I will.

I may be taking her to Billing, not sure of any other events at the moment. Is there any that the club is attending? (this would have to fit into my shifts )

At the moment I can't see how to attach any photo's, sorry

[Callyman]

Agreed, looks loads better with the roof down.
We will have a stand at PVS santapod.

i gotta say looks much better down than up

[cally8valver]

yeah looks alot better dwn than up but still wouldnt be able to get used to no boot lol

[jonthevauxhallman]

As I have said before there is a boot space

[vinny_69]

i take it you have to pull the rear seats down then?

[Fraz]

I guess thats the only way to get into the boot, but where does all that fabric go ???? won't that be in the way of getting in from the rear seats

[jonthevauxhallman]

No you don't go through the rear seats, once the rear section of the cabrio roof or the tonneau cover is lifted up you have full access to the boot area, reaching in from the rear 1/4 wings or rear panel area.
