    deffo,you'll regret it!!!! look how many times you've come back to C ownership!!..........why sell a near perfect one after so little time with it!!
  2. have you tried the fuse in the fuse box? going back a few years,not long after getting a new fuel pump my Raddo wouldnt start after pulling into my parking space,also my sunroof and spoiler werent working and it turned out to be a fuse that seemingly covered them all bizarrely,sorry for the non-too descriptive guide,but it was near enough 7 years ago as for selling it................I'm sure someone would love to do a nice deal with your old 24V
  3. a bit of German input however,but from our favourite car consultancy company The Triumph TR6 (1969–76) was a British six-cylinder sports car and the best-seller of the TR range built by Triumph when production ended in July 1976. This record was then surpassed by the TR7. 94,619 TR6s were built, of which 86,249 found homes overseas, only 8,370 being sold in the UK.[3] The bodywork closely resembled that of the previous model, the Triumph TR5, but the front and back ends were squared off, reportedly based on a consultancy contract involving Karmann.[4]
  4. down to numbers really very few early interior'd Corrado's came with ABS optioned let alone standard,whereas the later interior Corrado's had it as standard
  5. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D good to see another Partridge fan on here :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
  6. NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!! :epicfail: there is no such thing as a Cup 3 wheel or genuine Porsche twists,its just a name that people think they are called and the genuine Porsche design wasn't available in 17inch just 18inch Hollow Spokes for the Turbo and solid spokes for the others

  8. Love it pretty bizarre too that when new in 95/96 they could be bought for Corrado VR6 money,quite ironic when you consider they were both built in the same factory about the same time,chav image or not you have got to love its residual value
  9. condensation in the exhaust causes steam rather than a white smoke,however coolant being burned produces a thickish white smoke rather than a steam due to the coolant content
  10. think Nelson is more concerned regarding whether he needs it Taxed as well as insured when SORN'd tho Jim
  11. my Storm is SORN'd at the moment and I'm with Admiral too,although my car is actually in my garage,I think if you were parked on the road and someone crashed into you then perhaps needing RFL would be an issue but if it is SORN'd and off the road then I cant see there being a problem
  12. big up to Cazza for prompt delivery of sunroof motor :salute:
  13. that would be far far too easy Tom :scratch:
  14. the Mk3's RX2's from the Anniversary model are wider than the Mk4 RX2's normally found on Bora's
  15. a wee bit of Corrado history that one [youtube:35h5sobx] [/youtube:35h5sobx] times and owners haven't been kind for that one :( robbed of its black leather recaro interior and replaced with an early cloth interior
  16. 1)there isn't such a thing as factory A/C in late model UK Corrado's,it was all dealer fit as opposed to Factory(tbh unless you are extremely competant with spanners and plumbing things in I'd reckon it would cost as much as a 3rd of a good VR6's value(from memory it was a £1k+ dealer fit job when they were new,hence why so few have it) 2)mpg wise should be the same,maybe more in the Highline's favour due to it being a slightly smaller engine(2.8 v 2.9),you should still get early 20's round town
  17. K-plate C's can be either or
  18. can this kit be used in conjunction with my existing schrick intake at all?
  19. deffo sell the badge or swap it for a painted/primered one rather than butcher a chrome one,plenty people on the forum look for the chrome ones every so often
  20. damn knew I should have went for this last month :brickwall: looks well................tho points are deducted for having a Wolfsburg surround!! :epicfail:
  21. and pray tell how do you know if the motor and actual sunroof are both in the parked position,mine IIRC since Ive replaced the headling and sunroof cassette seem to be out of sorts in that the motor will only open so much and close so much without assistance from the allen key btw I take it the OP knows to replace the allen key cover when trying to use the switch,otherwise it does seem like the motor is kaputt if you fail to remember to do it
  22. more than likely the collision with the Lorry at or near the round-a-bout and the Fire Brigade having to cut the roof off to get at him,rather than the BMW being top heavy explains the state of the X5 http://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/Article.aspx/1573469
  23. mystic blue being a Storm only colour,whereas Classic Green was available on the rest of the range,so its possible to even make a bottom of the range 8v in Classic green with the Beige Leather option into a Storm look-a-like just add colour coded grille(easy DIY) Sony CD player BBS Solitude alloys(v rare in 4 stud admittedly) 2xStorm badges and you have a look-alike :roll: I prefer the later interior as it just looks more modern and classier whereas the early interior looks more 80's
  24. anyone know how to get the sunroof motor "timed" to work with the switch(yes I know about the allen key cover microswitch :nuts: ),just replaced my sunroof a week or so back and now the motor will not work,tried to follow the instrctions as per Bentley but not 100% sure if I have done it right,is there an "idiot's guide" kicking about for this?or is it trial by error,I think I must have totally got the "timing" off by winding the motor too far in one plane :epicfail:
