  1. Long shot but are there any CCFC season ticket holders on here that may be able to get a couple of tickets for the Checkatrade final for me? Am happy paying a little more for the hassle if possible. Thanks
  2. Unfortunately not corrado related as I am still waiting to get back into the game and get another but I have a quick question relating to tyre size. I can get a set of brand new front tyres for my car for free but the profile is 225/40R18 instead of 45R18 which is on the rear. Would this cause any issues having different profiles on front & back? Its on a Citroen DS4 if that makes a difference Thanks
  3. Oh mate its great to know its still in good shape! Do you manage to get it over to the US without any issues?

     

    Would love to see some recent pictures...

     

    Thanks for the update

  4. FYI It had a uprated "plug and play" loom fitted in January mate from here http://www.rayneautomotive.co.uk/ so wouldn't have thought it would be that. How is it getting on anyway?
  5. Yep went for what I was asking. I wouldn't let it go for less. Sold it to a chap from the US air force so it will eventually end up in the States. If I do get another C it'l have to be a VR so you never know
  6. Well that's it from me. Corrado drove away with its new owner tonight, he saw it on piston heads so thanks for the advise. Il miss not logging on here most nights but maybe il own another one soon.
  7. Thanks I have advertised it on Pistonheads now. Please someone buy it on here!
  8. Its on edition 38 and I have just put it on ebay. Cant justify spending £38 putting it on autotrader. Its a great car and defo not willing to let it go for under £1500
  9. http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=89549 Do you think I have priced this about right. Havn't had a hugh amount of interet and I really dont want to break it. Thanks

  11. 1990 Green 1.8 16V I have owned this car for over 10 years now and it is time for me to move on. I am posting the for sale add first and if it is not sold in a couple of weeks I will break it for parts. For the last 6 years it has been used as a second car or not used at all so it was mainly parked in garage or sorn **Good Bits** 114,000 miles 6 Months MOT Good paintwork for age Stainless steel exhaust Full Black Leather 16" Borbet T Alloys loads of tread (6 in total 4x7.5" & 2x9") MOMO Millenium EVO steering wheel with Corrado silhouette badge Lupo wiper upgrade Headline loom upgrade New discs + Pads all round 6 months ago (350 miles) InPro fogs and Indicators Colour coded front grill, headlight surrounds and number plate plinth (repainted 2 months ago) Brake lines replaced 2 years ago New blower motor fitted 2 months ago Original rear lights tinted red Spoiler operates as should Sunroof operates as should Oil and filter change last month **Bad bits** Lowered about 40mm and suspension pretty hard Temperature gauge doesn't work Blower direction control windscreen only(early style) Rear tyres rub on arch's if driven over pot hole I Jet washed car today to take pics and a couple of drops of water came through sunroof area (first time this has ever happened) There is an Immobiliser fitted but apparently it was bypassed by VW before I bought it as there was a staring issue **Ugly bits** Slight bolster wear on drivers seat (not bad though see pic) Sunroof headlining needs replacing 5" paint lacquer below passenger handle Slight lacquer peel on bonnet Couple of parking dents (very minor) This would be an ideal car if someone gave it a little bit of attention as all bad bits are minor and pretty easy fix's - I think I am under selling it! I'm not really open to offers as I will get more than the asking price if I brake it for parts which I really really don't want to do but as noted above I will if I have to.

  12. I will most probably be breaking my car for parts after xmas. I have a set of Inpro fogs & indicators on it. il let you know as soon as I do
  13. FYI - Iv got them fitted on my early valver. hope this helps
  14. yep front and rear seats and front and rear door cards.
  15. Sorry I know this isnt a for sale thread but was thinking of selling but I havnt seen any for sale to see how much they are worth, Good condition plenty of tread on tyres. 6 wheels + tyres in total. 4 - 16x7.5J 2 - 16x9J Is £350 a fair price or too much/little Thanks
  16. I am thinking of selling but havnt seen any early black leather come up for a while so not sure how much they go for. It will obviously depend on condition but what should I put it up for. Its in pretty good condition, usuall slight wear to drivers bolster but no rips or tears anywhere. Thanks
  17. I have driven pretty much all the new fiesta variants but the ST so cant comment on the power but overall great little cars. They are also well equiped bluetooth/dab etc. If i had the money I would defo consider one over the clio
  18. Ha, I new the Clio wouldn't go down well. Its funny as all the reviews rave about how good it is. I looked at Golf GTi's but for my budget I wasn't getting anywhere close to the age + spec of the clio. I had a little 1.2 clio as a daily a few years back and actually found it very reliable.
  19. Cheers there are no silly mods on it anymore, just Borbet T's and colour coded standard grill. It would be a shame to break it as it is pretty tidy apart from a few minor things
  20. So after over 10 years of ownership I think I have finally lost the love for my corrado and am looking for something abit more modern. I know this probably won't go down very well but Im viewing a Clio RS200 on saturday. Has anybody owned/driven one before, I would love to know their opinions of them. I am also in two minds (well three) whether I keep the C, sell it, or break it for parts. I would hate to break it as its too good to break but I would defo get more money that way and dont think I could justify it just sitting on my drive.
  21. Yep saw that again yesterday, parked up on the road next to G-DEC. Mine is onsite everyday but still yet to be spotted
  22. Two yesterday in a space of 10 minutes. The first was a Blue J reg wth carbon bonnet and roll cage on A46 by Leamington. The second (black I think) parked up on a drive on Kenilworth road. I also regually see 3 different Corrados at work in Gaydon but im allways to far back in a queue to get a good look!
  23. My second post of the day requesting help! My spoiler seems to operate fine when it rises however when it lowers automatically it drops a little then stops. When you lower is manually its drops a little, stops then you hear a tick (presumably from a switch) then drops a little bit more, then ticks then a little bit more and so on and so on until its all the way down. Any advise? Thanks
