  1. handy! now i dont have to pay him loads of money to fit one for me! :lol:
  2. not quite to the same extreme, but a couple of years ago at gti festival someone had their polished alloy oil and water caps stolen. not the biggest theft, but had to run around trying to find spares in order to get home. unfortunatly, whilst most of us are enjoying the friendly atmosphere of most shows, some scrotes making the most of it.
  3. cardboard, buy this!! http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic. ... 507#659507
  4. close call! Every other saturday morning there used to be a camera van at the end of london road. i used to drive that way up onto the dual carridgeway and through box.. it got silly though coz you'd always know to expect it. that roundabout is great coming the other way too!
  5. buy them off ebay.de should find prices better.
  6. great stuff! theres nothing better at work then when a customer comes in and says "we're here to buy a mini" :lol:
  7. you need to get flat centres! id go anthracite.
  8. Foggystorm, website is http://www.dingsanddents.co.uk/ im getting the number of the guy we use tommorrow for someone else, so will let you know when i have it. im gonna ask him if he'd be interested in doing a group buy type arrangement where local people can meet up and all get stuff sorted at the same time. gotta be worth a try if there enough people interested.
  9. would agree carb, same engine as golf driver is my bet.
  10. dents guys are great.. we use "dings and dents" in bristol, the guys are genius's.
  11. Why more for the early bonnets? Didnt think there would have been THAT much difference anyway. plus and including vat? seems pretty good to me. i like foam.
  12. nice! i work at a stealers, but in sales, im sure id still be able to blag something! cheers for the heads up.
  13. Is she single? :norty: which engines she gone for? my mates mum had a skyline till last year, he got to drive it all the time.. his little sister took it to 155mph! she also ad a mk1 gti back in the day.
  14. First off.. read this: http://www.the-corrado.net/wiki/index.p ... _Checklist Secondly, G60's are great and Gwerks is even better. Dont be scared of the chargers! If you end up with a car that is cheap but without charger history, get it to them asap.. you can send the charger or take the whole car down. Thirdly, i'd say the best places to find a car are here or dubforce.net.. chances are the car may have been looked after better. you prob wont find such a potential bargain as you may elsewhere, but my car came cheap from autotrader, and the charger blew up literally the next day! The car below has been on the forum for a while know, so you should find a good history of it from current and prev owner. http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=54705 Would write more, but just back from the pub and need to sleep! Gnight and good luck! oh, and welcome to the forum! Baz.
  15. i know the feeling, however, i find it difficult to bother jump starting the thing these days..
  16. yup.. always declare, its not worth the hassle not too.. i gave em a massive report including things like door pins and side repeaters.. why not!?
  17. hmm.. i reckon youd get more people say theyd love a vxr then people that know what a corrado is! i've driven a VXR and it was flat out.. however it sounded terrible, very 'grindy' and the torque steer was horrendous.
  18. G60Jet, thats not true! there are both.. my old car was H150 COU and we have lots of plates at work with O in.. however, you wouldnt get the spacing of letter/number/number space letter/letter.
  19. but people cream themselves on here if a 15 year old, circa 5k dub is detailed?
  20. july to june? same mid year calander... or just launch it as a 2008 calender, knowing itll get done in time?
