Cheers guys, added to the list! I'm not looking at making money doing this, but if there's any spare for a forum donation at the end I'm sure Andi will appreciate it! Understand completely bud, I had been slack in chasing up my contact in Indonesia after sending the sample to him.. He's helping out as a favour so I'm not really in a position to push him! I've spoken with a couple of people locally who sound promising so I could've looked at that closer at the start. Perhaps I should be happy this has given me the kick up the ass to get moving again! Cheers, Baz

Great stuff, cheers guys. I've been on the phone today to a couple of potential suppliers locally, as well as chasing the model in Indonesia. Depending on the Bristol price, it could be worth staying local as it's easier to change/adapt etc rather than waiting for samples back and forth. Also, the potential sting from customs could outway the savings! I will update again tomorrow when I have more news. Cheers, Baz

Looking good bud! How annoying has this on and off rain been?! I've masked up for polishing 3 times this afternoon and everytime it chucks down! Gah.

I have now, as suggested, put up a feeler thread for anyone interested in these. I have samples ready to ship to Asia and will expect info back within a couple of weeks. Sadly, I have had to do this because of trodden toes, but I hope anyone who's followed this thread will stick with the original and best! The-Original-Rear-Cup-Holder-group-buy-feeler

Following on from my "Hate the lack of cupholder thread.." A few people suggested i look into getting these made up. Current update: I have had a sample made and it's pretty good but not perfect, please see later in the thread for full details. Here's a pic if you can't be bother to check through! I am aware that another seller has copied the idea and is making home made versions for £10 + P&P, if you are looking for a grey or beige finish I am unable to produce that so that could be an option.. however if you want black, mine will be factory produed, with stepped sides to fit McDonalds cup/Coke can/Red bull cans perfectly. Please have a read through the original thread above and if you are interested please add your name to this thread. I am expecting exact costings within the next couple of weeks and production within 4-8 weeks. Again, I am aware there is now a cheaper alternative, but you can't hurry perfection! 1 bristolbaron 2 Marshall936 3 Critical_Mass 4 Johnny H 5 dannyboy 6 Krishen 7 _Meth 8 BILLCOR 9 redborbet 10 derbik 11 V33DUB 12 Dude VR6 13 G60 CS 14 Jim 15 EnthusiastOwned 16 Stiezo

If thats a problem, i dont know what's going on in my shed!! I've got the same plan for this week, 2 day detail.. may turn into more as i've got to clean all the leather. Will compare results at Bristol Volksfest!

This. :thumbleft:

Hello and welcome! First thing to look at is the buying guide on here - print it off and take it with you when you look at a car. http://wiki.the-corrado.net/the_corrado_buying_guide_checklist.html With the G60, it's not surprising for any 20 year old car to have some secrets, at least you've found this one early. Personally, I would say stolen/recovered 20 years ago is the very best was for a car to be Cat C/D - does the V5 show whether it's listed as either? Cat C/D cars generally sell for 30-50% less than a 'normal' car, so as the seller didn't know this it's a great bargaining tool. I wouldn't be put off the car at all if everything else seems right, bodywork, engine etc. Just make sure you buy it at the right price!

Here's my previous Rado's.. G391 VHA - DBP 16v J766 SDP - ABP G60 J534 DWP - ABP G60 M955 WDT - ABP 8v J804 NWK - BBM 16v

worth getting a load of the door card ones from vw.. think i ordered about half a million went i was doing my trim. they come up pretty cheap from ebay too.

how annoying! I changed from standard hoses to silicone a couple of years ago and could've sworn i kept the old ones. i've found the top hose but none of the others! There's a very slim change that it's in the garage i rent, i'll check tomorrow as i'm going up anyway. if its not there its gone :(

Oh nice. I'll not bother carrying on with the research of getting these made up then? Just pinch the idea and sell your own. Would have been nice for you to get in touch first.

I'd get them to double check - 5x110 is very unusual, I think they've made a mistake.

please dont do this. it will look terrible.

Passat estates - for the milfhunter in you.

how disappointing. it was the only thing that kept me reading your threads! :shrug:

any chance we can see that pic of your girlfriends tits now CS?

in the 90's maybe.. all about the lupo/tt wipers.

oh god no.

what are? the link bill provided is for stainless steel ones?

and you could make stainless steel tent pegs. :)

http://www.premierinn.com/en/hotel/BRIBAR/bristol-cribbs-causeway here you go bud, i'd recommend getting a tent and getting in on the camping action though - much more fun then a hotel! you might struggle with a taxi up the road too if you were planning on boozing..

humph. he's too busy in Canada for us these days.

there's a premier inn at the top of the hill :)

ha! good collection. Seem to remember them being very good money too. Fake LM's have really ruined the real ones for me now. :(
