The time has come!

For all general things Calibra related

The time has come!

Yes, as of this morning my Calibra is sold.

I will miss it always dont get me wrong, it has been my 'baby' for the last 9 years...but i have been needing a more practical and more comfortable car for quite a while now and i have traded it in against an '09 Insignia SRi.

I got a belter of a deal though I got £995 p/x for it against the Insignia which was £7995, making it £7000, not bad for an 09 plate with 53k i dont think :)

I'll still have a mooch on the site from time to time, you'll not get rid of me that easy ;)

Well, not sure how do you call it in UK, but I've got MY09 Insignia Sports Tourer CDTi / 160hp.
According to EPC it is Elegance/Exclusiv.
