Last Saturday, after a week of searching and digesting information on the 4×4 transfer box I finally decided on what is going to be my next Calibra. This one is newer than my other Calibra, has leather interior, perfectly working air conditioning, larger (16 inch) rims and 260BHP of turbo power. Unfortunately it lacks the sunroof and the blinded windows but this is not something that cannot be overcome.

I’m still slightly worried about the 4×4 transfer box though. It is a fragile part of the car and the previous owner is running different makes of tires front and back and this is considered a very bad thing ™. So the first thing I have to do Saturday, after I pick the car up, is to replace them with a set of 4 new Z-rated directional (directional profile, it’s a turbo after all) tires.

  2. How can I not post when my most faithful reader directly confronts me about it? πŸ™‚ Thanks for getting me blogging again!

    I’m still a bit shocked too what happened and I will really mis that car. Still hurts when I see it parked on my parent’s driveway but can’t really part with it yet.

  3. Hey Bas,

    Great to see you have your new car. It looks very nice. Hopefully you will enjoy it for many years.

  4. “but canÒ€ℒt really part with it yet.”..It’s the right feeling..U should never betray ur first love..I never do! πŸ™‚

    When I got used to something from the start..it will be my fav..and I will stay loyal to it πŸ˜‰

    -Like John Sheppard from Stargate Atlantis (and the whole series, although public opinion implies that Stargate SG-1 is better)

    -Like my first pet in World of Warcraft that I never traded for a “better model”

    -Like the earrings that my dad gave me as a present in 2000 and i NEVER wore any other for more than 2 days. And don’t want to. πŸ™‚

    Silly examples, but they just illustrate that I know how it feels πŸ™‚ Still hope, ur new “lady” will serve u perfectly and u’ll “love” her too πŸ˜‰
