  1. I dont think ive seen one of those 206s

     

    The car would still look normal with the roof off if you looked at it from the side/front or rear

    With all the 1/4 pannel windows, metal door surounds and the whole boot and glass still in place

    Just with no top roof pannel


  2. I have this thought i would like to share with you

     

    I have this dream about my corrado having a removable roof, not the whole roof and windows, cause i really dont like the look of a full convertable corrado, just the top roof pannel comming off in two parts and fitting in the boot somehow and then being fitted back on when i want, i think it would be cool in the summer, not sure if this would be possible, the surrounding area would have to be strenghthened, there would be quite alot of work in the conversion if it were to be done,

     

    The car would look normal with the roof on with just a seam running from side to side on the roof pannel where it comes off in two parts

     

    Just a wild dream at the moment, I wonder which companys would attempt such a job

     

    What are your thoughts on this?


  3. No, i havent checked with him, dont really wanna bother him about it cause i dont think hes the type of person that would know

    I dont think its anything seriuos, its probably the immobiliser cutting it of, therefore it just needs rewiring slightly differently


  4. I think 18s look good on corrado, but to fit a rim thats 8.5" wide, you'll need your wheel arches extended

     

    You can fit 18/7.5" fims with not much trouble, you need to roll your arch lips and remove the plasic dirt guards from your front arches

     

    I think lots of people are scared of fitting 18s cause there worried they wont fit but there really isnt alot of difference between 17s

     

    Lets say for exsample a 17" wheel with a 215/40/17 tyre (I know the most common width is 205, but lots of peolpe use 215s with no probs) if you compare this with an 18" rim with a 215/35/18 tyre, the radius is only 2mm bigger
