All good things must come to an end. But for me..... i had nothing but bother with it. It was complete bollucks from minute one, of owning it! half hour after picking it up the rear bumper comes off at 70mph with another car behind me. :shock: A friend noticed a head gasket leak on day 2, The freshly put in transfer box followed 3 days later, the turbo was never boosting correctly, and was very badly set up with no uprated fpr as should have been, and the rear bench seat was CONSTANTLY wet, oil pressure issues around a month after getting it. and then the pulley and alternator decide to make noises....

I drove the car for all of 250 miles inclusive of the travel home with her.

Now who is gonna tell me i am wrong for moving on, and try to recuperate my money?

Because this was the ONLY way i was gonna get close.

b***h and call me a w****r what ever you like, but it wasnt you that had to put up with this constant bollucks, and then have to walk past it every day with my head held low, I had a dream to own a turbo, and my heart felt robbed when all this happened.

Don't post much on here but am gutted to see it in that state, although it pains to say it, it is time to move on, find another motor and get that done up instead, still a damn shame though

If no one bought it, was gonna get broken anyway by Steve. That was even written in the for sale thread for the se2.

Plus would you have given me what i paid for it to buy it back Steve? I think not..... Tbh i didnt even bother asking, if your LE is away early for the winter for lack of pennies to get it fixed i am hardly gonna ask you if you wanna buy the se2 back am i!! I needed the money back from it asap, and thats exactly what i did.

Anyway, get over it. I owned it, Was time to move on, get summit reliable and get on with life. Now how about you lot do instead of getting at me.

so sad to see this happen, we all know our cars are a labour of love as they are all getting older but for such a nice car to end up like this is criminal. when i have had problems with mine the club has always come up with a solution no matter what so nothing is beyond repair, i feel so sorry for steve seeing it like that , he and the car should have been given the chance to be re-united its a sad day for him and for calibras a rare car just got rarer RIP

i think youll find i wasnt going to waste money doing a quick fix on the LE, the Le is in the garage going under a major engine rebuild and should be finished this weekend as for giving you what you paid for it you will never know but i also know 2 people on here that would have bought it aswell.

anyway if we want to b***h about it we will your the one that keeps coming one to try defend your self so maybe time you moved on :greetings-waveyellow:
