G60_Stoney

http://www.barryboys.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=17196 looks like vw have been supplying headlights to citrus owners! mk4 golf headlights i do believe...

ive got a powerflow custom exhuast fitted to my g60, works fantastic. although can get a bit of a drone at certain rpms, but i suppose you get that with any exhaust, sometimes. anyway it works fine IMO.

went to the scrapyard where its being held today to get my stuff out of it. had a set of coilovers in the boot waiting to be fitted, they dissapeared until i started getting angry with them, then the magically reappeared !! seems 4 people are already sniffing round my car waiting to buy it!! need your advice tho. as the front suspension disappeared from under the car, people have been taling about cracks in the engine, thus making it useless for putting in another corrado ? is that likely or would the sump take most of the battering ? the shocks were next to the car when it came to a halt so it didnt grind itself along the ground or anything. any ideas ?

really ? ok im gonna go and check that out. cheers mate, might get a GBH charge too !!

time isnt really an issue !! got my little golf driver runabout still ! didnt get the taxi's reg tho, i really am up for ripping his legs off and making him eat them tho! im just really saddened by it all, copper nearly arrested me for mouthing off!! couldnt believe that. surely there must be cctv, but nobody is interested. whats happened to this country is it full of lazy SH*Ts or what ? they just think young lad fast car and thats it, i dont drive like a muppet when im behind a car ive been waiting 5 years to drive !! anyway, whats the story about changing engines etc ? i dont understand a bit of it. are they more expensive to insure after even tho it'll be same car with the same engine just from my old corrado ? please explain !! and thanks for your help too guys. i am a bit :mad2: at the moment !!

yeah, looks a bit harsh mate, will be posting pictures of my corrado up when i go and see it down the scrappy on monday. think ive done something to my ankle actually, got it trapped between the brake and a bit of the footwell that came out at me. copper said if i was driving anything other than a vw there would be been a fatality for sure, so bless those germans !!

Been looking around and ive had a brain wave, if i find a g60 like this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... %3AIT&rd=1 could i put my engine in it (96k on the clock) then sell its original one, and also put my leathers in it ? how much do u reckon it'll cost if i wanted to do this ? i could do the interior myself but how much for getting a garage to swap the engines over ? and would i need to do anything else ?

cheers guys, something really bad just happened tho. about 10 minutes ago my workmate phoned me up, someone just T-boned his vectra coming out of a junction with him and his girlfriend in the car and wrote that off. how weird is that? they are both ok tho. on a brighter note, ive searched the forums and it seems i should be able to break the car for parts and get about £2k all going well, if i can get the car back. police officer said i was lucky to be alive, if i was driving a ford or anything else he said there would no doubt be a fatality :shock:

Its a very sad day for me guys, crashed my corrado last night in Godalming. :cry: its a write off no doubt about it. question is what do i do ? apart from cry a bit more. got cut up by a taxi driver and thought it would be better to go up the kerb than go into the taxi. but the kerb had a lampost on it. and a wall behind that = big mess. question is as the car has a few nice things in it, stage 4 charger, mint leather interior and a set of new coilovers in the boot etc. how much do you reckon they will give me for the car and how much do you reckon it'll cost to buy it back as scrap ? i dont really know what to do, any advice would be helpful. ive just lost my dream car and im gonna :snipersmile: the taxi driver when/if i find him !!

ok, ive read that post, and it seems ive got to start pulling my car apart !! not up for doing this, cant it just be reset somehow ?

cheers guys ! yeah they seem to think the spoiler thing is well good, when you come to a stop and it comes down !! maybe they think its witchcraft !!got a very nice compliment from the man at the shell service station too! said my car looks well nice along with the comment 'thats the supercharged one right ?' bet it goes like the stink to which i replied, 'dont really know havent needed to push it that hard yet !!'

Ok guys first post in this place so hello to you all !! just purchased a really lovely g60 corrado a few days ago, after i got bored with my little golf driver !! :cry: anyway thing is the car is great, its just that the mfa doesnt show the correct mpg on the display, i know this used to happen on old mk2 gtis and i was wondering if it just needs resetting or something ? if so how do you go about this ? or is it just a faulty sensor ? and another thing, do you find you get picked on by muppets in other cars trying to get a race out of you ? i dont drive very fast as im only 19 and the insurance was £1800 ! so im driving it like an old granny !! dont need to show people it goes fast really, badge says it all !!! thanks for any advice.
