  1. Bit far for me Darren mate, as per.
  2. I would agree that that would be about the price you'd expect to pay for a private sale. Bodywork could be crap. Brakes/suspension etc could all need doing. A lot of things are reaching the end of their life around 100k. Buy Tim's (Rallye's) G60 engine and drop that into your 16v shell? about £1200 for the engine and it should be an absolute peach.
  3. Surely he hasn't accepted a ticket but only a producer ???
  4. Flog them on Brian. Sure someone will take them off your hands. Nudge Nudge. Could do you a swap for some stickers :)

    MFA computer

    Try disconnecting the battery for 10 minutes. Happened on one of my old Golf's that had been left for a while. Odd that it should just go blank though so I doubt that disconnecting the battery will help. Worth a shot if all else fails tho - and it won't cost you anything!

    Dashboard lights

    Welcome to the forum Nick. As this doesn't come under routine servicing (usually!) I'll move it to 'problems'.
  7. They will be ready when I can afford to stump up the cash to order over 100 of the buggers! ......... I hope to have them being sent off by the end of next week or early the week after. Got exams at the moment and would prefer to concentrate on those for now + I'm not sure on how long it will take for them to supply over 100 stickers to me - hopefully pretty quickly. Well seeing as though there are a few people with tints that want 'outside' stickers then I will order a batch of those as well. Will post with more details once I have them, but I think they will be a little bit more expensive because I won't be getting the same group discount on them.

    Long time Standing!

    Welcome to the forum first of all. Now I'm not the most technical of people but I would like to make the following points: I think that the 1.8 16v is generally preferred to the 2.0 but there isn't much difference in it. I think if the car has been sat for so long then you might need to replace the callipers at least. Might as well renew the whole brake setup whilst you are at it. Regarding the engine, I think that assuming that it has been reasonably well looked after then, once it has had a proper service and flush, new battery etc, it should start to run ok. Having it stand for over a year shouldn't kill and engine. If you can get it dirt cheap and it has a good body etc etc then get it checked over by a mechanic and go for it if you get the green light.
  9. Yeah I'm 90% certain that there is a different LHD and RHD part. I know what you mean though - you would've thought that the centre console would have remained the same whether or not it had a LHD or RHD dash.
  10. Yeah they look pretty good. Personally I'd try and clean up the back by spraying the number plate surround in body-colour and just having a nice chrome 'Corrado' badge instead of the body-colour one with VR6 badge. Oh, and you need a corrado-forum.net sticker or two as well ;)
  11. Yeah but I think that whilst both LHD and RHD version are obsolete, you might still be able to get the LHD version from dealers stock.
  12. "PD Motorsport.....I can't believe it's not Bahnbrenner!" Hehehe
  13. You're right Jim, so where's my praise beeatch? Updated my first post for ya matey ;)

    Bonnet Won't Open

    Is it that the release mech isn't releasing the bonnet properly so that you can't get your hand in (ooer) to open it? Or is it the actual mechanism on the bonnet, rather than the drivers side release?
  15. "PD Motorsport.....we don't like kiddies but we do like dubs?" "PD Motorsport, the quicker you arrive....the quicker you leave ;)"
  16. lol - you again!!? I might consider swapping some stickers for a mk1 golf if you have any knocking around!! ;) Delivered of course!! lol
  17. lol - Darren, you have 5 - how many more do you want?! Greedy sod! hehe. You might have some stars for trading when the new forum comes about. Until then we have to make do with this.
  18. Gonna rename it the "PD Motorsport thread" actually Darren!!! :lol:
  19. Cheers Brian. We are considering a sort of stars system for when we swtich to the new forum software. Good suggestion though. (first post updated as well)
  20. lol Majik! I could get a special one made up for you if you like? hehe "Fat woman in boot who will sit on you if you come anywhere near this car you little pikey scum!!" ??
  21. Ant Could you not put it at the top of the windscreen or summat? I could do you some normal stickers (instead of reverse-cut), but they would cost a bit more mate.
  22. Good - someone who approves ;) ....... Nigel ;) hehe Assuming the the general feeling is one of approval then I will hopefully order them tonight and should have them for despatch in a couple of weeks. When a) I receive payment and b) I finish my current exams which I'm meant to be studying for now. I would say revising, but to revise, you must first know the subject matter to begin with!! lol
  23. But Nigel......what door handle? They are etched glass look. They are totally cut out. Grey? Are you trying to get it to suit your car? I think if grey goes with everything then so does white really. How much bigger? Currently 200mmx20mm.
