Blimey those tyres don't look happy, have you replaced them? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180308/79c981318f7224779d2da3e241d9ce40.jpg

Spotted a nice dark Corrado knocking about in north Derbyshire with (I think) LUE in the registration. If it rings a bell with anyone I just wondered if the owner had posted a build thread on here? I've searched through a few pages of members cars threads, but with no luck.

Those look lovely. Your kitchen floor looks pretty nice too.

I do like that Polo, anyone know if I can learn more about it on another forum perhaps? Cheers

Ahh OK, for some reason I thought it might of had some significance to a Corrado. Good luck with the sale, hopefully Oliver Edward Morris has a Corrado.

What does it mean to a Corrado owner? C for Corrado I presume, 5 just random? and OEM? that one always gets me, I know it as original equipment manufacturer, or does it mean something else in relation to a Corrado?

Well is it done? and if so which way I wonder?

I don't have a Corrado so I'm not sure if this way will work. Cut off the old boot, attach mole grips into recess in drive-shaft, tap the shaft inwards using the grips as a contact point (that's if they have the little compressable c-clips holding the shaft to CV? to just free the shaft, the inner joint has room to take it. Remove the two bottom strut bolts, pull hub outwards from the top, fit new boot over shaft, pop the shaft back in the CV, replace strut bolts, tap shaft fully back into position, fit CV boot clips. You may have to remove the brake to get a good angle for tapping the shaft free? How does that sound? it works perfectly on my Micra

I'd go with the OE style myself as well, are these needles any good? http://www.ebay.de/itm/Tachonadeln-LED-Beleuchtung-needle-LED-illumination-/280801521744?pt=DE_Autoteile&hash=item4161133050 http://www.ebay.de/itm/180780363409?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 the Audi ones seem rather expensive

Audi instruments always catch my eye these days, I wonder if replicating what they are doing now will bring your car bang up todate, or would it not work with the rest of the dash, it seems like a lot of work to update the pod so why not go for something modern?

Looks nice, although I think it would look better if the intercooler was painted black

It'll be interesting to see what they look like on the car, they look amazing on the grey car. I'm not really a fan of your current black wheels sorry. Micra Stu :) now I really must stop visiting this forum, the Corrado urge is growing ever stronger ;)

Lovely looking car Tom, even though it sounds like a tractor ;) Stu

A removeable tow-bar with hidden electrics should do the trick. A tow limit of 1200 kgs so no worries

Yes he's come on a fair bit, this makes him sound a bit wooden http://youtu.be/d6bD1aoXHkw

I dribbled a bit too :)

There's nothing really special about a Corrado, I wonder if things would have been a whole load different if they'd run in down a VW production line and knocked a few grand off the price.

You are correct, that's VW's new Corrado

Or even Flawless :)

People showing their cars should get in free, kit car drivers get in free at the kit car shows and they're not the main attraction.

It's already out :) A bit too big and wide for my liking though

I've got 4 cars and 2 motorbikes off the road without tax or insurance and 2 vehicles on the road with tax and insurance. It gets busy at times with all the VED letters coming, glad I can do the SORN online these days

I can see the green in that one

Looks Grey to me?

Ok thanks, a bit of depth to the title then :) If I'd looked at one of my Corrado brochures I wouldn't have needed to ask. The red car in the Aug 1990 brochure looks great, hard to believe I've had the brochure 21 years
