The Calibra handles well, but in 2.0 litre 8 valve form the performance will probably disappoint. The fuel consumption is also rather poor, though this may be due to yet another fault!

I don't think I will be buying another Vauxhall car in the future.
You must have been unlucky, my 8V Calibra is a lovely car to drive. I get about 30mpg which is not too bad. It looks nice and drives well.
I agree the car is cursed I fix one thing and another breaks. And I'm pretty sure the car can catch other things from cars if another car has a problem and I park next to it I garantee that the next day my stupid calibra has the same problem.
