  1. bargain! bang a ticket on that and its worth £500 - £600 all day long. im driving a slightly newer version at the moment and its faultless..
  2. looks pretty good.. although i think the website is http://www.swstudios.co.uk/ the one you posted is in arizona!
  3. Personally i dont think a painted grill would suit it i'd fit it as it is with a black VW badge or debadged. lupo or audi wipers - use the search for part no's. speakers - fit audioscape pods with speakers to suit your budget - again search for this. I'd change the wheels for something smaller & wider, and think about tinted side repeaters and doing something with the rear lights.. looks tidy though, good luck with it.
  4. very bad idea to break the engine imo.. i'd sell engine, gearbox, charger & loom together as a complete G60 conversion for £600 - £1200 depending on condition/work done. 280mm front brakes £80 - £120, incl calipers/carriers jetex exhaust system £100 - £150, dep on condition standard wheels £100 Sebrings £200 BBS, dep on condition
  5. for eliminating mould and doing a good job at getting rid of smells i've used this in the past.. http://www.petsathome.com/shop/cat-urine-stain-and-odour-remover-trigger-spray-945ml-by-simple-solution-15204 looked for a while at cleaning solutions and it came up as a recommendation.. had no probs since..
  6. they dont have batteries on the website as they cant post them.. need to go into local branch.
  7. spotted a blue vr6 on the m4/m5 interchange yesterday at about 7.15pm.. female driver, potentially quite hot, but was with the wife so didnt get a good look!! :lol:
  8. i just bought a gsf jobber for £39.. no worse than the varta imo..
  9. Anyone seen this? Not from VW but would be pretty happy if they made one!
  10. I cant quite remember where it came from! I paid through the nose for it, with the intention of getting a company to use it as a sample to make replica RHD pods from as I couldnt find a RHD version to use.. never got round to it though! :lol: maybe one day..
  11. fantastic.. car looks great! i've actually got an original LHD double gauge holder somewhere.. Were you thinking of one of these or adding the 3 gauge holder from the audi's?
  12. there have been numerous cheap/free things i've changed on the car, however coilovers have by far been the best purchase i've made.
  13. i was looking at it loads when it went down to 7k on air.. spending the extra to keep it on the bbs is a must though! get it bought!!!!
  14. All the above i have done on my own and mechanically i am a complete retard. look for guides on here, but it is all just swapping stuff. headlining should be fine also, but if the sunroof needs looking at then it would come down at the same time.
  15. Does anyone know where i can find some info about swapping handbrake cables on a 91 g60? my mate is doing mine tomorrow and apparently had some difficulties and the gear shifter end last time he changed some? If any one knows an easy option/solution it would be appreciated! I have tried the search but couldnt come up with anything! Cheers Baz

  17. perhaps he is a forum user, sat in his car and checked on his phone to see if you were on here, couldnt find you and wanted to tell you all about the forum but felt nervous about introducing himself as he wasnt in his corrado. by the time he built up the courage to talk to you, you were driving off. he followed you in anticipation of a conversation about corrados. whilst thinking about the obvious thing to say he thought 'its late at night, lets talk about how bad the headlights are!' in having thought this, he then felt bad about having superior lighting on his car that he turned his headlights off as a mark of respect. having built up so much anxiousness to talk to you at last minute he bottled it, speeding off down the road. he felt silly about this so went back past to finally chat to you and saw your dad outside with a torch and you unplugging the freezer to take outside and put his dead body in after you shot him with the rifle you were by now carrying. at this point he went home in a panic and swapped his corrado with the first chav he saw for a burberry hat and a can of stella. the end.
  18. I quite like road wars, but my wife is addicted to it! In fact, she's just gone to bed and i can pretty much guarantee it'll be on when i get upstairs! In terms of the police, my general view is they're great. I got pulled on the motorway the other day as my car came up with no registered owner. I've only just bought it, so explained everything, they did an insurance check and i was on my way. My mate who was in the car loved the experience, spend 10 minutes chatting to the fittest WPC i've ever seen! :luvlove:
  19. PMSL.. I bought this on here a few months back! :lol: Sent it back as it wasnt advertised as G60 with A/C at the time. There is absolutely no benefit or worth in fitting it, it will be a total waste of time and money buying parts to try and make it fit. Sell it on VW Vortex to the yanks or put it on dubforce.. suggestions at the time were it was worth £60+ so you wont loose out. HTH Baz
  20. no better than the standard rado cooler.. slightly bigger, but not helped by its position in the bay.. sell it on or get a refund!
  21. AP Weitec Gt Kw V1 priced from lowest to highest.. all made by the same people.. quality gets better the higher up you go..
  22. G-werks by about a million percent.
  23. great job, great write up! if you need a bumper to do a how-to for smoothing off fogs & indicators then let me know!!! :lol:
