  1. 8) Cheers for that Kev, may take you up on that offer at the meet in early october!!
  2. Hello everyone. Just want to get some opinions on this......i'm quite satisfied with the way my car handles (i've had 3 16v golfs, this is my first C and def prefer it), i usually like to keep things standard, as mine is, but the more i visit this forum and see other C's i'm getting ever more tempted to put some 16 or 17 inch BBS RS's on because they look sooo good!!(being simular to my stock G60 BBS but filling the arches) OSV's is a good example :) .However, i keep reading that the handling suffers from this mod, which is the last thing i want. Bearing in mind that i would change the suspension aswell, just how much and what are the effects on the handling???
  3. I put about 30 -40 miles on mine every day, love to drive it, hate to look at the milage creeping up!! I'll hit 49k by the end of this week! Ouch! Will hurt even more when it hits 50. Still, the C is there to be enjoyed!!
  4. Yep sounds good to me aswell, and theres my mate starky (keystar G60) who'll be into it. There are loads of rado's about!!!
  5. There's a 1 missing actually!! Just gave him a call with my fingers crossed but its done 117000 :(
  6. What are the wheels on your C? They look amazing!!
  7. Thanks mate, you're a star!!! 8)
  8. Probably, about 11am? on the A12/A14, I was on way to Stowmarket and as I got there I saw a Nugget Yellow 16v Not sure, saw a blue G60 around Kesgrave kitchen around that time. looked like it had been lowered a little and not sure if they were standard wheels?? Mmmmm
  9. Was that you heading towards ipswich this morning Supercharged?? Corrado looked good, saw you at the last second so didn't wave.

    Not sure what size your wheels are but sounds expensive for F1's I was ringing around for them at the weekend and got the price down to £186 for all 4 195 50 15's though, havn't got them yet but heard they're amazing......
  15. What! Might bump into you at Tandy in Norwich sometime then Alan......what a great place to relax.sorry enough partridge puns now Keep an eye out for your G60 though, any pics on here??
  16. Back of the net!!!! Havn't seen your G60 yet, and i'm in woodbridge quite often. Do you hang out at the petrol station? :lol: Is kev haywires an L reg? If so seen that a few times and another VR6 M## PAN??

  19. Cheers for all your help :rainbowafro: This website is great. Had my C for about 7 weeks and getting hooked on them, another question i have is, is it a really noticeable improvement to have the jabba stage 4, pulley, r1 charger and chip on the G60?? how much better are we really talking here???
  20. Thats not fair!!! oh well stil very low miles though. the reason i may have to sell is because i'm planning on moving to australia, but really want to take it with me. anyone out there know about the costs and proodure of doing this?? Anyone know of any Corrados in Sydney and if there are any good garages to take it to? Thanks for the replys 8)
