  1. well if you choose to go the way of 16s in the next few weeks, give me a PM & we may be able to work something out..... just need something soon to get through MOT and I don't want to fork out to re-shod the 6 spoke OZ 15s..... Cheers
  2. Rather than post up pics of my new C, I thought I'd just bring this thread to the top and say...... mines just like that! Lovely - saves me from taking 'arty' pics! Cheers adam! PS whats a set of those wheels worth?? Set for £300 on CGTI forum but sounds a bit pricey........?
  3. motorway sprinting / going town to test centres aren't really an option - no tax / MOT / Insurance! these MKIV calipers - do they need custom pipes or can they be sourced from a different model? Was kinda hoping for a 'jack the car's arse up and see if you can spin the wheels with the handbrake off' type suggestion!
  4. My new corrado's handbrake lever has rather alot of travel in it before it locks the car. As far as I'm aware, this could be either cable slack or sticky calipers. Before I go out and buy a new set of MkIII calipers, does anyone know of a quick & simple check to guage their efficiency? Cheers Al. Oh, and does anyone know if MKII and MKIII rear calipers use the same pads?
  5. I need: 2x fog lights 2x headlamp lenses 2x front indicators (only minor cracks) MOT Tax fix the non-sliding sunroof 1x new front engine mount 1 x CV joint 1 x repaired front speaker 1 x stereo 2 x doors ajusted for height 1 x bodywork around indicator treated for bad rust 1 / 2 x siezed rear caliper 2 x new windscreen wipers & springs sort the scuffing on the front bumper knock out the bent metalwork over the rear wheel arch 1 x fixed heater dial 4 x new tyres think thats it so far -only bought the car on Sunday - picked a real good-un :)
  6. hmm - you might have seen some pics on the cgti forum some time ago .... or possibly in rabbit?? for a reminder, I've got some pics on my own site at http://www.slybadger.com and heres the new addition!
  7. well after 3 MkII golfs and 2 audi coupes, I've finally gone and bought a corrado! Its a bit tatty in places and I've got a list as long as your arm of bits needing work, but it does have a decent history and seems to drive reasonably well (if a bit lacklustre)...... anyway, pics & annoying questions re my new '93 16valver soon to follow......... ps how do I squeeze porsche monoblocs under standard 15s??? Al.
