All is OK arrived in Liverpool fine and light did not come back on.... Amber by the way..... thanks again Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

She didn't mention any audible - but hey stereo would have been on - will check if it was amber or red..... anyhows - light is off now and she is back on her way so hopefully all is ok - will let you know more - thanks for all the advice and concern - love this forum Out of interest - is it same amber light for both bonnet and oil? which is worse red or amber? if its level in the sump does that mean oil is extremely low (being sump)

And thanks Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Will do..... hope it's OK she loves her car more than me if that's possible Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

She is now parked up and waiting to watch for any leaks and then check levels - touching wood! Not cotton! lol

Indeed and fair comment - its good job it wasn't a noise as she has stereo on full blast and wouldn't have even heard a "bang" lol

Thanks Sean - will do..... just waiting for a call back - she had 3 miles to get off motorway so hopefully she is off now - don't want to be driving with oil light on. I told her to get the train lol...not saying that to her mind!!!!

OK - girlfriend has just called me she is on M5 on the way to Liverpool - her oil lighgt has come on on a 2006 beetle 1.8t - ive told her to get off motorway buyt some oil - let it cool down and let oil level level out for 10 mins and check her levels - then top up if needed and if oil light goes off then all ok - does that sound like good advice? thanks

Dam - cant get into ebay from my work pc

Just fond this - so does this suggest you can completely remove ABS and will then pass the MOT? But you cant just pull a fuse. "If an ABS or ESC system has been intentionally rendered inoperative, the whole system must be removed. However, this does not apply to sensor rings or other ABS components which are an integral part of another component e.g. brake disc or drive shaft." http://www.motuk.co.uk/manual_340.htm

Just realised my car either appears or is discussed on 6 seperate pages and their seems to be at least another 2 pages where the Corrado has exposure in adverts John Mitchel Racing and CCGB. Happy days

Got mine in whsmith in Oxford. But you can order online http://www.greatmagazines.co.uk/modern-classics-specials?utm_source=mc_fb_shopbutton&utm_medium=social&utm_content=post&utm_campaign=modern_classics_bookazine4 Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Oh and opening line.... "Golf GTI deftness and aggressive looks and one of the best V6s in the business - get into one of these while you still can afford to buy one"................. Love it!!! and soooo true!

Funny as .....

OK - got my copy and pretty happy with the write up - a few technical details they have wrong - but really good although not sure they liked my colour ?? I think its the best.. Any way - they rated it as the best of the 5 cars. Final paragraph.... "But only one coupe kept us coming back for more - the wonderful Corrado VR6. Its a genuine drivers car that actively involves you in the process of belting along a good road. Its already going up in value and will continue to do so. And right now, it makes you feel like a hero whenever you drive it. Oh and it looks pretty good too" On top of that there's two pages of enthusiastic write up - get a copy - worth a read. Gives values at useable £4500, Good £7000 and concours £9000

Very very nice

That's terrible news Jim! Hope you find its not as bad as you fear Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
