calibra drivers :mad2: :inncazato:

calibra drivers should have to prove they know how to change gears before they get their licence....
lets forget the p factor :p

though if you ask me, he was letting his learner mate drive his car, and after the accident changed seats etc.
either that, or he was showing off.

I thought you were going to complain about something else when I read the thread title LOL...

Of the many I've bumped into over the last 7 years of owning a Cali myself, (I'm talking about strangers on the road, not people I know from forums) many have a certain attitude problem, some though have been very good people...

So how many have you bumped into besides the clip that don't know how to change gears, or did it take only one to upset you ??? :lol:

:p lol.
nah i just seen the p plate headline and thought yep here it goes, everyone raving about p platers...
so i thought id follow the cali line instead :D
i suppose its the same thing though, experience the bad minority and slag the majority.
the only cali owners ive known are the guys on here, and the one that parks in bunnings here.

the 4x4s do have a pretty bad turning circle, or at least they do when the have a sport x box.


chuckled at this:

Port Macquarie Fire Brigade sprayed a layer of foam to suppress vapours from a fuel leak.

prob wasnt caused by the crash :lol:
