    Lol, you want to get your ass down the Fosse Way then mate 8) The Rado dosnt like driving round town, too bumpy :roll: When is that meet up mate? C
  11. Interesting thread this, my Rado has a FSH all stamped up by VW garages but no mention of a cambelt change - its on 89k now ? C
  12. Cheers dog, 7.5 is pretty wide for a standard wheel :!: Hmm wonder why the dude who had it before me fitted 195 45's on the rear :? C :)
  13. Alrite, picked my Rado 16v up on Wednesday, just like to see if anyone recommends checking or changing anything now its mine ? AFAIK the cam belt has not been changed, mileage is at 89k so im guessing that could do with being changed ? Any advice for a newbie would be appreciated anyway.. C :)
  14. Hi lads can you tell me what size the standard size alloys and tyres were on my Rado when it left the factory in '89 - its on a G plate When i picked it up the other day it has 15" alloys (not sure on width, probably 6.5") running 195 50 15 tyres at the front, and 195 45 15 rear cheers, C :)

    Thanks again lads, had chance to drive the Rado a bit now - what a car! :)
  16. Hi, since buying my Rado ive insured it with Tesco (cheap as chips) but the car must have a Thatcham approved Cat1 or Cat2 imobiliser.. fair enough what imobilisers have you found to be a good choice with the Rado ? (makes etc) dont want to spend a lot, probably £150 max ? ta
