hope it sorts out in your favour

black valver (i think) in st helens around 5.45 ish yesterday evening dinge in the back quarter by the Corrado badge, looked OK other than that

any updates Jim? I enjoy a good "I want a new car debate", on that subject did anyone see Evo last month / month before with the 20 old/new car test for £20k gimme that TVR over the M5 (puts on flamesuit)

:offtopic1: love the signature........... one day this will all be yours! classic film!

DEBBIE, welcome to the forum, if you get chance the search option will show you a number of posts were similar problems are discussed in depth. Not sure if there was a conclusive solution but all interesting to read. Cheers Andrew

not VAG but.......... 406 coupe? diesels are still ££ but the 2.0 and 3.0 V6 would do the job? diablo red, can nearly mistake the pininfarina styling for something else!

liked the dodge charger too!

congrats PeteJ, on a smooth loooking motor, hopefully see you around Cheshire soon!

3 in Chesterfield over the weekend, just vistiing ;) K plate G60 Dark Blue J plate G60 Dragon Green(?) one more, not sure on type as only saw late, he was being followed by a G40 polo though! Cheers Lippy

saw an Rs6 this morning - cherching!

on a more positive note........ I am looking forward to meeting people at the AGM; spending time with people who share a common interest. As someone who has recently bought a Corrado I can certainly vouch for the usefullness of this forum and have yet to register with the CCCGB, I will on the 17th. I hope that everyone who does make the AGM enjoys the day and also puts forward constructive comments to take the Club(s?) forward. Thanks Andrew

cheers!

must admit I have a soft sport for these!

i got caught on camera amber gambling the other day........£60 and 3 points :( D'OH

Dark blue, prob Vr6 in Stockport yesterday (28th) near the train station. I was too busy waving to notice any more :oops:

Hello I need to get my alloys refurbed, I have a set of Wolfrace Urban Racer wheels which originally came in a shadow chrome(?) finish. Has anyone got the same wheels, or finish? I believe you cant get the same finish when you get a refurb? Is this true and what other options do I have with a refurb? Cheers Lippy

does anyone else think that *if* VW did ever release a successor to the C it would sell as well with a modern engine and interior and the styling left alone? It would mean that all the exterior parts would go into production again, which cant be bad!

PeteJ, give Adrian flux a ring, my experience was cheaper than directline and others have given recommendations on this forum. I am based in Cheshie to so premiums likely to be similar - i am 22 owning a valver! if you use the search there is plenty of info on insurance contacts - in fact I think there is a sticky post somewhere........I am too hungover to go look though! Andrew

anyone seen the picture of the C on the pistonheads article? whats attached to the bonnet near the grill? and look at those repeaters??

sorry guys, that looks pants! just my 2p tho ;)

welcome to the forum, good luck with any purchase. Corrado's are the dogs! Ibsyj23, it will be even rarer to find low milers in 4/5 years but as a number of people on this forum can testify - never be put off by a high miler, as long as the owner looked after it well the car will just keep on truckin! Looking forward to a drive in the sun now! Lippy

let us know the outcome and any pictures!

I'm 22 and had my Rado for 3 months Previously owned 1.4 '94 Fiesta Sapphire 2.0 '96 Almera GXD Dream car is a TVR Tuscan S in Black with deep red leather mmm

lmao!

I've got a 2l 16v........... I am averaging 20mpg doing short hops This is all quite subjective, the figures above are according to the on board computer, and depends how heavy your right shoe is........mine is quite heavy! When choosing a model, dont just judge on petrol alone! insurance, power and condition all need to be considered. Thats why I got my valver, good performance with an affordable premium this year. Next year will be looking out for some more horses though! It depends on what type of condition Rado your looking at too, when deciding on what model. For example, I bought a 90k 2.0 16v knowing with good history and was fairly confident the extra was worth it. However, there are a number of people, more mechanically minded than me, who would sooner get the confidence from buying a "project" car replacing many components themselves - therefore knowing the state of their car more thoroughly. Good luck Lippy
