Finally got me a Let yesterday, had fun winding jambo up saying id bought the thundercorsa... but um... no, i got me a black calibra turbo, and im all happy now! its mostly standard at the moment, but i doubt it will stay that way for long 
its also the first car ive had with leccy windows, which is nice, and the 4wd works too

i dont intend to split it for once.. i've always wanted a calibra for some reason.
mileage is just past 100k, but the engines had a bit of a rebulid. and according to the old mot certificates its done 3000 miles in the last 3 and a half years

nice and smooth, comfy too. just need to get the wheels re-balanced as theres a slight bit of wobble on the steering wheel..
cant rag it tho for 500 miles or so and the suspensions a little hard
