Dragon green 16V at Dukeries garden centre. M448 I think, looking good in the sun. First spot (outside of my garage at least) in some while!

I’ve wondered if an E-UP battery pack would fit the floor pan? wont be quick but would be different?
-
Had this week off work so got it out the garage, cleaned and waxed it ready. Planning to take it off SORN Monday so it’ll piss it down the next month!

I'm late to the party, but welcome. How's the car ownership?

Well it's a nice weekend and I have no other work to do. Shifted the mk2 golf out the way and am out in Karmann. Anyone else bothered with the hassle of getting out in the corrado? It is worth it still 😇

Welcome OP. I'm "between" corrados, shall we say (sold one earlier this year, taking a break to try other stuff). EVs, the misinformation gets everywhere from some, including a 90s Corrado forum 😄 For the record I have 2 EVs as my dailys, both Tesla (oooohhhh Elon builds them all in his shed, how can you support such a person) and have taken one to the Scottish Hebrides, France and the other, with a smaller battery pack, I covered 600 miles in one day (due to a funeral) and it was no bother at all. Turns out I did need to stop for a wee on my journey. It only ever wants a 5-15 mins top up anyway on roadtrips. And it is dirt cheap and smoother and better driving than any modern diesel or small petrol car I have had in recent years. I can't say I have ever enjoyed the driving dynamics of a 2.0 TDI anyway, and let's be honest that is what most people are dailying.

There are many effective solutions for removing rust. I’ve had some experience with this topic regarding my cars, and several of my friends have shared useful information about it through this link: https://www.autos-heaven.com/blogs/infos/rust-rush-remover-auto-heaven-s-must-have-product-to-protect-your-vehicler

Dear friends of the RHD Corrados. I offer here a probably unique package of headlights and headlight parts for all RHD Corrados. Over the years I have accumulated a lot of headlights and individual parts for right-hand drive Corrados, which I would like to sell as a package. 99% of the parts are either NOS or refurbished to mint condition. 18 lenses, 6 reflectors and 4 complete new headlights. Lenses early type: 3 x right (reconditioned/new), 4 x left (reconditioned/new) Lenses late type: 9 x left ( 7 x NOS, 2 x reconditioned), 2 x right (1 x reconditioned , 1 x used) Reflectors: 2 x left (2 x reconditioned) 4 x right (3 x reconditioned, 1 x NOS) Headlights: 4 pieces NOS in original packaging. All early model, right side. All parts are in extremely good condition. I can also offer to assemble as-new headlights from the individual parts for an additional charge. I have not yet calculated the exact price. But I estimate around 3000€ + shipping. As I am rarely on the forum, you can also contact me directly by e-mail. editionone1(at)freenet.de Regards Chris

Cressa replied to greg81's topic in Engine Bay
There cant be many Autos left on the roads as some have swapped them to manual. I think Hasan has an Auto, so it would be nice if he knew and commented. Have you looked to see if there Is there any info in the WIKI about this? -
I tend to message Chris Lillfuzzer for any parts I need. I don't see him ever here anymore, but he is on Facebook CCGB. I just don't do Facebook

VR6 radiator query - Are there different for an auto?
fendervg replied to greg81's topic in Engine Bay
Actually for VR6 it only lists one radiator part#, 535121251E - I was lookng at the 4 cyl engines, which have different radiators for for standard vs a/c and automatic - 675mm as opposed to 430mm, the VR one is listed 630mm - but it does show some mounting hardware and brackets are specific to auto cars, but you should have them already. -
VR6 radiator query - Are there different for an auto?
fendervg replied to greg81's topic in Engine Bay
Pretty sure they are different - they tend to be for most models. ETKA lists different ones for auto vs manual, but I've never had two side by side to compare. Hopefully someone else on here will be able to confirm -
Just a quick query regarding radiators. It’s looking like we will be buying one of the eBay alloy types for our auto VR. Before I get a chance to have a look later, does anyone have any experience as to whether there is a difference in radiators between auto and manual gearbox cars? The vendor has said they are for manual gearbox only?

Anyone got the right hand (of 3 looking from the rear) strap for the VR6 70L tank?
