  6. he bought it 02 , i have asked him if its hpi clear he said he hadnt ever bothered to do one so he's either lieing or in for a suprise :oops:

  8. hmmm yeah i'll look into the short shift mod i remember they did those for the mk2 golf i had does anyone else think renault copied the c with their mark 1 19 16v ?
  9. ski you cant knock a good dump valve, one of the best noises in the world :evil:
  10. yeah you've got a point jim certain models the p1 or colin mcrae look good but the import (usually silver) dont do it for me, the same for the evo ,tremendous car but it looks like a family saloon thats ram raided halfords :D
  11. yeah i'm just thinking they are similar money but the scooby will have half the miles a c will have but the scooby will never be a classic :twisted: the news of the world article, i got a txt about it.........i dont buy comics :lol: imo the scooby sounds awesome, goes faaaast but looks crap :roll:
  12. i'm gobsmacked lee, the car is totally awesome, def one of if not the best i've ever seen 8) respect :mrgreen:
  13. hi has anyone drove both and if so how do they compare ? what has the vr got over the scooby apart from the obvious looks :D and the fact that the scooby is ten a penny cheers ps. the new golf gti is in the news of the world 200bhp but looks a bit boring
  14. thx for the welcome 8) just one more Q , i took a k reg vr out yesterday it was a total bag 'o' shite ,susp knackered ,engine leaking oil and rusty as fcuk underneath but my Q is do all the VR'S have really sloppy gearboxes or did the one i drove need the cables adjusting ? it was a really long throw from first to second and just really sloppy cheers paul :wink:
  15. I WAS NEVER REALLY KEEN ON THE FLASH RED :oops: you've just changed my mind :D
  16. thx vr6storm :D i'm interested in a vr6 thats for sale on the forum which has 175k on the clock but has had a recon box and rebuilt engine but my concern is the diff suspension and brakes at that mileage although i would probably buy coil overs is it worth having the c chipped ? does the handling suffer by dropping it and fitting say 17" or 18", the other cars i've done this to the handling has improved but the ride suffers, less roll with a smaller tyre sidewall but less ive over the bumps :oops:
  17. :-P just spotted the buying guide but any additional info would be good , from your own personal experience cheers
  18. i havent got a c yet but i'm looking for a vr6, is the best corrado a vr6 ?? i've drove a few vr6's and i love the torque they have :evil: i've had lots of vee dubs before mk1,mk2,mk3 golf gti's and ive just bought an fsi mk5 just a couple of questions 1, is there vr6 very thirsty ? 2, does the sunroof break on every corrado ? 3, whats the weakest point on the corrado ? handling, brakes,gearbox etc we could do with a buying guide on the forum any info on"what to look for" ,typical faults would be greatly appreciated thanks paul oh yeah how easy (and the price ) is it to get hold of a full leather interior from a breaker??......gold dust ??
