Ah yeah, the DTM back box - loud and proud! Had one on my Mk2 GTI but didn't really like it - bit Halfrauds! :wink:
-
Mine pops a bit ever since I had the remap and Milltek fitted - only seems to happen after spirited driving! Like it though!
-
Radostormvr6, 15k miles has gotta be the lowest ever! I bet if somebody offered you 10 grand for it you'd tell em where to go!...I know I would!...it's priceless.
-
Yeah and they were over the moon cos those prices were a steal! Normality will resume again soon! :wink:
-
If that one being sold by Just Corrado had more extras like leather, aircon etc, it'd probably be worth nearly the 10k mark to a serious collector. There's gotta only be a handful of 1994/5 C's left with less than 50k on the clock, and 1 owner from new!!
-
Prices do seem to be on the up now that Spring is on its way! We as Corrado owners shouldn't grumble, it's all good! If you have a good disposable income, why not spend 10K on a flawless example?! I'd say there are cars on here easily worth that!

It's just dawned on me that I haven't seen another C on the road in over 4 weeks :shock: and i've travelled all over the place recently (brighton, northampton, London, Bristol, Liverpool) in a company car but not a single sighting. I'm always looking out for them too! I guess alot are used as weekend cars now as alot of people on here have daily drivers. Makes you realise just how rare they are now!!! -
One of my neighbours has a 172 and just couldn't understand why i bought a C when I could've got one of them!...he also argued that it was quicker than the C. I'm a great believer in actions speaking louder than words so I just said I'll get the C and take him for a burn! You could tell he was quietly impressed as soon he got in - wasn't expecting heated leather etc! After a few sprints down the dual carriageway he finally submitted and agreed the C was quicker! He said the sound of the engine also made it feel faster! :D As we parked up, I then reminded him in a couple of years time, his would be worth alot less than my higher milage dinasaur too! :wink:
-
Def the Borbet A's - more fitting for a C. The others kinda remind me of TSW Venoms!! :wink:
-
Just bout to tick over to 90k. With the amount of miles I do at the mo I've still got another 2 years before I hit the magic century!
-
Luvly! Just confirms my answer to a question I was asked today: So what car would you get if you had 50,000 quid? An RS4 What about if you had 100,000 quid? 2 RS4's. :lol:
-
Yeah come on guys, stop gorping at the missus! No of views with the GF (not a great photo at that) = 40 No of views showing the lupo wipers (with surroundings looking particularly minty) = 6 :roll: This is supposed to be a Corrado forum guys, so look at the Corrado! :wink: KADVR6, can see what you mean, but she's tastier than Sabine (not bias at all!) :wink:
-
and just noticed, it's funny how the photo of the GF in the car has been viewed a sh*te load more times than the others!!!! :lol:
-
Trig, cheers, that always seems to be the first thing people comment on! 16v, yep solitudes all the way!
-
Here's some more pictures. Sorry for picture quality - old camera and sun going down fast!
-
Not sure where I got this pic from - really like the colour though. Bit of a head turner. Anybody know this car?
-
NickRStorm, that's what I think - the overall driving experience and howl from the VR far outweighs any niggles! It won't stop me moaning about the glovebox though cos I'm a picky b*gger!
-
Just had new gearbox mount fitted - OMG what a difference! Everything feels nice and tight again, no more vertical play in the steering wheel and smoother gear changes!! One more thing sorted! :D
-
This thread is nicely reassuring that I'm not the only one with niggles like this! I wondered myself if the heated mirrors worked cos they don't really seem to be that effective! As for the rattles, I've been having serious words with my glove box door which drives me nuts from rattling (especially when cold!) :x Anybody else got a noisy glove box?! I guess cos most of us have upgraded suspension, it's almost inevitable that the firmer ride will cause rattles. :?
-
Just phoned AmD who fitted them - they're giving me a call back in a bit :roll:
-
I had them fitted last april which is a bit sh*t! It's not as if they've been given much stick either - no track days or such like, and only 6k miles!
-
Ah Booger! Anything to do with adjusting them in this cold weather you think?
-
This morning I loosened my shocks a notch and a thick, clear oily substance oused from just below the adjuster, also with a quiet pressure release noise which I haven't heard before. Only happened on one side. Has it happened to any of you guys and is this normal?

GF spotted a red C in the bodyshop opposite ABC tyres in Wootton Bassett this morning. She failed to note reg, model etc but apparently "it was VERY SHINEY!" :lol: Anyone on here?
