1997 Vauxhall Calibra review from UK and Ireland
"So so so sexy, and don't even try racing this machine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only small minor problems.
General comments?
Well this is a poor man's Porsche, it handles like it's on rails, and the speed of the car is deadly, it will thrash any crappy Ford Cossie (they are crap cars) and keep up with Porsche Boxsters. I think that says it all!!!... bye bye Cossies.
