  1. :lol: I love driving them, playing around with them and looking at them, but as soon as I found a garage that I could trust to fix them properly I gave up getting oily :lol: Cant remember off the top of my head how much an oil change is but it's not much more than the cost of a filter and oil so bugger doing it myself for the sake of a few quid! :grin:
  2. Fingers crossed its gone then :lol: I dont bother changing the oil on my cars any more, for a few quid extra its not worth the hassle, plus getting rid of the old oil etc :camp:
  3. Sooooooooooooooo much better 8) Enjoy it, and take some pics for us!
  4. Gotta be the worst rear lenses ever seen on a Rado? :tongue:
  5. Awesome mate, Inca blue is fairly rare too! Well chuffed for you! 8)
  6. Oooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh :fondle:
  7. Yeah get some pics up! What sort of condition is it in mate?
  8. 8) Awesome, it's great that it's gone to a good owner, it's not every day you get given something that's potentially worth a couple of grand!! :clap: Of course, if he feels like giving a little donation to the forum it would be accepted gratefully :wave:

    It seems a real shame to delete your build thread over a disagreement with just one member (as far as I know) - there's always two sides to every story and you're welcome (and encouraged) to put yours forward if you want mate. Anyway, rather than create an internet storm in a teacup, i'll lock this thread as it doesn't serve any purpose any more - feel free to PM me or any other Mod if you want it re-opened.
  10. I sorted it myself thank you :lol:
  11. Haha! Reminds of of the DubMarines one about E38 - which is also NSFW! [youtube:215ld8s6] [/youtube:215ld8s6]
  12. Lets hope this one stays put :lol:
  13. Absolutely! In my eyes, if you've butchered a set of seats for him, he should pay for them?
  14. No I wasn't wearing them, they were on the floor at the foot of the bed :lol: It was all a bit of a blur tbh, having been drinking etc for most of the night, but basically I ended up chasing them up the road in my boxer shorts :lol: I can laugh at it now, but it really freaked me out at the time and I still have to make sure i've locked all doors/windows twice before I go to bed 5 years on! Also, I say the opposite to steweybenson in that I now leave my keys downstairs, i'd rather that my cars went than having people come into my bedroom while i'm asleep again. What I find surprising, is that they'd go to those lengths to get their hands on a 14 year old car! When it happened to me Corrados were still fetching good money so it was sorta understandable but nowadays you wouldn't think it would be worth the risk for them :shrug: Anyway, you have my sympathy stewybenson, it's really not a nice feeling, hopefully they'll catch the feckers and lock them up with bubba!
  15. Have you still had no contact from him at all Henny? :eek:
  16. :( I've had this happen to me but fortunately/unfortunately (depends how you look at it) I woke up while they were in my bedroom going through my jeans to find my keys! bastards. Sorry to hear they got away with it mate, i'll make this global for a few days to get as much attention as possible, maybe someone will see it around somewhere, fingers crossed!
  17. I just constantly kick myself for selling my first one, I got a good profit out of it so it seemed worth it at the time, but having only ever owned one rado I naively thought i'd be able to pick up another in equally as good condition and pocket the change but it just hasn't happened! As time goes by, gooduns seem to be becoming more and more difficult to come across, which I suppose is inevitable. The difference between a good well kept Corrado and an abused one that's been looked after on the cheap really is night and day!
  18. 8) Nice one, that's what its all about after all! I must admit i'm jealous as i've not had a rado i've 'loved' for a few years, can't wait to get another one tbh!
  19. Nah, cant remember which one I had when I saw you last but whatever it was I got rid! I'm keeping an eye on the market though waiting for the right one to come up at the mo, i've gone through so many of them just trying to find a peach so this time i'm going to take my time! Drop me a PM if you're coming this way, are you heading over for RTTS?
  20. :camp: :camp: :camp:
  21. You could always spend 4 years building one to the best spec you can, then drive it for 100 miles before pulling it apart to do something else - you wouldn't be the first :cuckoo: :lol:
