  1. must have taken ages to find then..........hardly any activity on it don't make for an easy find with a search engine i thought
  2. as the youth of today say..........BUSTED

    corrado maf??

    your 1.8 16v doesn't have a MAF btw............ your fuse box is under the driverside dash undertray/cubbyhole nearest the door
  4. they are about 20-25 miles outside Aberdeen,the guy knows his stuff and above all is very friendly and helpfull..........he's that good that plenty ppl actually get him down to Northern England to detail their motors
  5. you tried this place for the odds n sods you need?? http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/wash.html
  6. :lol: :lol: :lol: btw Furki.........yer Uncle still got that old Fordie???
  7. you been exposing yourself to UV rays again Furki??
  8. Ohh here we go, I Knew it wouldn't be long before you came along... And No its not me!!! Its amazing what google finds these days... you should try it!!! truth hurts eh :-P funny that i can't find it on google :shock:
  9. simple really the 205 GTI although in a lower ins group will be loaded for theft risk etc btw are you using your NCD/NCB on both
  10. Marcus are you the man behind it tho???............funny how you managed to "find" a new Corrado forum....with only 1 or 2 posts on it
  11. be warned tho.......not matter how minty mint one you buy is........its going to need bits replaced through wear n tear,and although its got a better build quality than most Fords and is probably better engineered the smallest detail/thing to go wrong can make it seem like a money-pit........
  12. there's some exceptions tho.............ive always lusted after the Fiat Strada 130TC Abarth
  13. ..........there was a couple of Fiat coupe guys on here a few years back too saying that the timing belt can be done in-situ
  14. can't recall the UK getting the 1.8 130bhp version tho just remember them coming out over here about 95 with the 2.0 16v/2.0 16v Turbo then a cpl of years later they were replaced with the 2.0 20v/2.0 20v turbo been in a 20v Turbo by F*** it was fast!!!!
  15. he's called funnily enough "campaign"..............tho there's also Jimbo .....i think is another with one
  16. there's very very few ppl here who bought their Corrado brand new on here...........and there'll be only a few more that have bought Corrado's that still have the original invoice in their paperwork
  17. like Kerrimay says there's some crossover 2.0 16v's out there which lack the later interior.......which IMHO looks more refined cos of the heater controls of all things...........these normally are on a J-plate perhaps even as late as K-plate
  18. what a disgusting,insulting thing to say. I may not own a corrado but i totally respect this car. Its a piece of history..a work of art. As for the ford KA..its a lump of ****. generally women do drive it due to its compact size. Parts are cheap, running costs low. But are they reliable? sorry but the Ka is quite an accomplished little city(in fact i've driven our first one to London and back) car that IMHO still looks fresh almost 10yrs since its launch.........my wife has a SportKa now but she's had 2 Ka2's in the past(and thoroughly enjoys them) and i've enjoyed driving them too..........in fact the only new car ive ever bought was our first Ka2 just months after they were first launched
  19. kinda............when the 1.8 16v was introduced most of the electrics were optional tho IIRC they were made standard just prior to the 2.0 16v's launch.........you might also find the 2.0 16v to have a bench rear seat as the "humped" rear seat was made an option on the 8v/16v models the 2.0 16v really only replaced the 1.8 16v for emission regs
  20. my missus's SportKa is a bit reminiscent of the mk2 XR2 but with more refinement
  21. AWWW Bless him......his car costs more at this moment in time therefore its a better car
  22. Andy,does it sound like someone squeezing an empty plastic bottle every time you depress/release the pedal???
  23. I swear by Synta Gold from your local VW dealer fully synthetic and reasonably priced
