Just confirmed and will start in May 09!! I wonder what the small print will be though?!? -
Thats around town with a heavy foot too!

Yeah LPG is def the way to go best of both worlds and can get kit fitted for £1400 + vat Nothing but praise for mine. I get the equivalent to 40 mpg which in a 2.9 V6 cant be bad!
-
Cheers! Picked it up using the take the front seat out method, and fitted easy! Well pleased with the leather, been waiting for ages for a good set... :D just need it to stop rain so i can put it in!
-
planing on picking up a full leather interior, would I fit it in the back? some one most of tried before?
-
Done this on mine today using gruvrnparts pulley and it took only 10mins no need to remove tensioner just took the tension of with a m8 bolt then simply unbolted and refitted. :clap:

Hello! Were did you get the vw centre caps to fit the TT comps and are they a good fit? Ta

Exactly what im thinking now. Full respray, slightly lower, leather interior and get those bl**dy heater controls fixed! all ready for the summer (well 2 weeks of it :lol: )

already have konis... But does look like i need more money to replace the corrado Prob spend some money on bodywork and have it mint for summer then look at the end of summer when i have more money!
-
Looking, As just had it for such a long time now and fancy a change... and have the money to buy something different. Can’t spend the money on performance upgrades as its LPG converted and that limits the engine work.

Just found a few cupra R's from 5.5k - 6.5k And a 04 focus st170 (lpg) would be very cheap to run and always liked them but i imagion quite a bit slower than the VR6?

Needs ok MPG, Reliable thats it really would love a cupra r but just out of my price range...
-
Right I’m in the process of looking for a new motor, I have 5k - 6k to spend... what I’ve been looking at so far: Cars Concerns... Honda civic type R - not sure about the small power band... BMW 330ci - costs to run, and so many on the road... Seat Leon cupra - bit of a family car looks wise S3 - finding a decent one in my price range 4Motion golf - MPG & boring (a bit) Have i missed any choices??? Argh decisions decisions… :shrug:
-
:lol: :lol: :lol: I like that! and nearlly did buy a 4motion but there just so boring.... compared to corrado looks like ill have to stump up a new set of heater controls from vw... (then not use them...)
