I'm not gonna say that twin filter masks don't work but they don't protect your eyes and 2k in the eyes is as bad as in your lungs plus once out of the packet the life of a mask is limited where as air fed will last years. Plus remember for the money to protect yourself from the arsnic based paint it has got to be worth the money. You can't buy new lungs or eyes on ebay.

There are a lot of sad people out there in this world. Our hobby is playing with cars Where as other people think making someone else's life a misery is a hobby. If I don't like someone on TV I won't watch it simple. But these people feel brave behind a key pad.

When in Rome.

Cheers mic. Long way to go yet but now it's at a proper ride height I'm a lot happier. Why vw made the suspension that high I will never know.

To repair my seats I bought 2 front seats in the same material I was going to use the passenger lower bolster to replace the worn out drivers side then take the material from the backs to re cover.

The AP coilovers arrived yesterday after what seemed like forever. So fitted over course of yesterday and today. Shame I can't take it for a test drive as still no mot. Bye bye 4x4
-
That's why I like em. You gonna get another?
-
Well the main thing is you and the kids are ok. Just think yourself lucky you were driving something strong like a vw.

Seems most people who sell their rados come back so they will have got more but have to spend more to buy a new one. I have no intention in selling mine so makes no odds to me. Don't like the idea of more expensive parts though.
-
Maths has never been my strong point. Already do the hot water bottle and duvet lol but doesn't everyone?
-
So they are. Over 1000 g60's gone in 10 years that's 100 a year so in that case in 7 years it will be worth a fortune as it will be 1 of 50 left well in my mind anyway lol
-
Any idea how many were originaly sold?

Winner winner corrado dinner.
-
It depends who your talking for example if it's the wife then it's needed lol.

The parts bill will never stop. Welcome and good luck.

I have decided to replace with AP coilovers as have heard good things said about them so will have to get ebaying. Today I decided to remove front suspension on passengers side ready for new ones to turn up. Thought it would be rude not to give the arches a quick clean while the opportunity was there. Also found this to do over the winter

Picked up the leather interior a couple of weeks ago. Cheers joe3954 nice to meet you I enjoyed comparing rados. On the journey noticed a knocking noise coming from passenger side rear suspension. Realising the mot was overdue from first of the month (good job I don't driver her that often so been in garage since then) so Yesterday set about looking into it hoping for a worn top mount but what I found was this. I think I said oh sugar or similar when I saw it.

Was the Corrado meant to be the Mk2 Scirocco
SR_Neale replied to Roger Chatfield's topic in General Car Chat
If it had of been at least it would save having to tell people it's a corrado not a scirocco lol. -
If there is ever any doubt walk away. I have learnt this the hard way.
-
All you can do is test drive as many as possible so you have something to compare it too.
-
Sounds like it could be gunk in the fuel system which is getting shock up when moving but sits on the bottom when stationary so will idle ok. I would check fuel filter first to see what condition it is in.
-
i had a ding in my rear quater in almost exactly the same place and was a right bitch to get right as most arches are so feel your pain. Can i suggest using a toffee wheel to get the trim backing off the door it wont damage the paint as long as you dont let it get to hot and 10 times quicker than any other method plus it smells wicked. https://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/product/details/power-tec-stripe-off-disc-with-shank?da=1&TC=SLI-060821488

Sorry if this has been asked before but what the hell does thumbsleft/right and bump mean? is it a sign I am getting old and not up to date with the youth?

bolt on mods shouldn't make to much difference as they can be easily changed back esp if you keep the originals but body mods and major engine mods could de value a car as people are never sure wether the work has been done correctly.
