Comments from the seller
Selling my Holden VE Calais as I’ve got a new electric car through the business. My Citroën Grand C4 Picasso is also for sale for the same reason.
This has been my motorway commuter to Sydney for work, which explains the high kilometres. It still drives like an executive car should: comfortable, smooth and easy to spend time in on a long drive.
The timing chains have recently been replaced and a small oil leak has been repaired. Tyres and brakes are in excellent condition, the air conditioning works perfectly and the car is in good working order.
Being a Calais, it has the leather interior and extra comforts, including reversing sensors. The interior has held up really well, with no rips or tears in the seats. The body is straight, although it does show some sun damage.
It would make an excellent daily commuter, especially for someone doing plenty of motorway kilometres, or a comfortable spare car to have at home. Affordable to service and maintain, with the recent work already taken care of.
It’s priced with the kilometres and cosmetics in mind. There’s a lot of comfort and car here for the money, and I’d be happy to see it go to someone who’ll keep using it.
Nothing to hide. You’re welcome to bring a mechanic along for an inspection.
The car will come with a fresh pink slip ready for Rego renewal in late March. No need for an inspection.
