  1. Check your header tank cap. Sometimes the little seal comes adrift and causes the system to boil over a bit.
  2. Seen this in the flesh and the work on it is pretty special. I had a decat off Drew for my Mk2 and the reason he wanted rid was because there was a tiny chunk missing off the flange, made no difference to the sealing of the exhaust. He just could not live with the idea that it was there and therefore the car not being perfect. Cracking car Drew, after all the years you have owned it you are giving it the restoration it deserves (not that there was a lot wrong in the first place!)
  3. I will have that please. Pm me your paypal details and I will trasfer you funds. Assuming that it is fully working, I will plug the ecu into my car when I get it to check
  4. Paid for. If anyone else has these spares kicking about then let me know.
  5. Hi Steve, I will have this please. I will need to arrange a courier so can you pm paypal details, where to collect from and suitable times for collection. Thanks Rob Ps it is an RJ
  6. It is quite easy to put in WS1 into Google maps = Walsall The wheel size is given by the clue of looking at the tyre sizes = 15"

    G60 ecu

    Sadly mine seems to have popped whilst at the garage, probably just age at the end of the day. Anyone got one lying around i could have please, the chip in it does not matter as i will swap over my SNS chip.
  11. Have you broken my old Corrado Jay? Something wrong with it? Sad day if you have.
  12. Put me down for the electric window loom please. Pm me posted total and paypal details please
  13. They look it. Shows the box and close up photos.
  14. They are 9.99 each on ebay brand new. Search Vw Hella side repeaters and you should find them
  15. I am after an alternator plastic cover, radiator plastic cover and the vac pipe that runs from the brake servo to the inlet manifold if anyone can help please?
  16. You should have all the pipes you need connected already as shown in the photo. I was thinking of keeping the small pipe that connects to the head breather but you can have the rest of it for £35 delivered
  17. I was truly sad to see this go, had been a great car for us, had it 3 years and it never once missed a beat. Was used as a daily when other, more modern, motors broke and then at other times just as a toy. I will miss it but hope Jay gives it the love it deserves. It is a good car in need of cosmetic rehabilitation. However the sale means that my Mk2 Golf can come back out to play, 13 years of ownership meant that it was always going to be the priority.
  18. I sold mine on Sat. Already want another, but the next will be a low mileage very original keeper. When this happens god only knows.
  19. £35 delivered which includes all the little pipes attached to it and the connecting pipe to the throttle body
  20. I can probably help. I will take a look in my garage tomorrow and let you know
  21. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1996-BMW-728I-AUTO-SILVER-/181238600667?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item2a32a993db A lot of car for the money
  22. It is with a heavy heart that I advertise my Corrado VR6 for sale. My very genuine reason for the sale is that I have too many toys. Sadly whilst I have the Corrado I won't get my Mk2 Golf back on the road. I hate the idea of losing the Corrado but I will never get rid of the Golf - I have had it 13 years! So the nitty gritty: Mileage: 196k (high but read on) Tax: End Nov MOT 17th Nov Mileage on engine: approx 70k (again read on) Colour: Moonlight Blue Registered: 1992 The engine: The previous owner, a mate of mine, spent a lot of money 4 years ago with Stealth for a rebuild, this was based on a low mileage engine with 60k on the clock, the engine was inspected and a full top end rebuild was instructed. I have receipts for the thick end of £1500. This means that this engine is absolutely spot on and drives really well. Other spec: Koni top adjustables and H&R Springs Milltek full stainless exhaust Polished rocker cover (needs cleaning if you are a shine freak but should come up nicely with some metal polish) Braided hoses for brakes. OK, some points that are worth knowing, there is a reason I have priced this at the lower end. The body work is not the best. Various small dents and a couple of bits of rust here and there. I have many spare panels in the correct colour that will sort some of this. Also the laquer is faded in a couple of areas. Bodily it needs TLC if it bothers you. Personally it just meant that I never minded leaving it anywhere. Mechanically it is awesome, though it has a couple of niggles: Exhaust knocks rear beam with passengers in the back. Near side wheel bearing sounds a bit dry, but does not hum like they do when they are heavily worn. Rear off side brake caliper was replaced last year, brake disc was not and it is still rusty, I don't do enough miles for it to clean off. Clunking when changing gear, this is not engine mounts as I have replaced them all. I suspect a lower arm bush is moving under load. 1st gear is slightly noisy, never got any worse in 3 years though. Interior is good, all electrics work including the sunroof. Eagle eyed will spot it is a later interior. So why am I selling it? Well I work full time, study a degree part time and in reality I just want to concentrate on my MK2. People will be suspicious me selling with so little MOT but in reality in is mainly because the classic insurance is up end October and I just want to insure the Mk2 instead for convenience. So in conclusion this will make a cracking car based on the engine, this car has never ever let me down, it was the car that worked when my T5 blew turbos, blew engines, and an Alfa also blew an engine. It got used when it needed to be, and at other times driven for fun. In the last year it has done about 1500 miles and that is all. Price: £1195 plus negotiation on the spares, if asking price is met it will come with two wings, a front panel and a bonnet. Location Kidderminster Please bear with me as studying for the degree makes me very busy. Photos are 3 years old, please note it now has standard grill and rear lights
