There's always a few knocking around at any given time; they're not as rare as an XT or a Piazza, for example.
Mine is basically an OK car, it's just been owned by a string of idiots and I've had to gradually unfuck it.

Definitely number 7, because everyone knows that a sporty Subaru should have... OK, I'll stop therequietside wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2019 8:47 pm The previous owner of the SVX did many twatty things. Pick your worst/favourite.
1. Cutting the gauze out of the air filter.
2. Replacing the magazine in the 10 disc CD changer with a similar 6 disc item that bricked the mechanism.
3. Handing over an old blue V5 that wasn't in his name so I couldn't tax it online (so I had to drive it back on trade plates; luckily, I knew someone).
4. Taking the helper struts off the boot lid (which stops the very heavy fibreglass and metal panel from chebbing you in the head when open).
5. Removing the central locking, ashtray and cigarette lighter element.
6. Removing the electric aerial and replacing it with a broken one.
7. Swearing to me the gearbox was fine*.
8. Telling me that it didn't run on high test fuel and in fact it hated it. The opposite is true.
9. Claiming that a check engine light was on because of condensation.
10. Replacing the plastic seat back with a cloth one.
Don't even get me started on the gearbox place.
Ha! Best of luck finding a Calibra on the road nowadays, they've almost disappeared.NergleFuttocks wrote: ↑Mon Dec 23, 2019 1:11 pm Must be tempting to park up next to a Calibra and just tut, shake your head and mutter “I remember my first coupe son”
