......still use the petrol card tho :norty: :norty:

hello fella, welcome on board, nice corrado :thumbleft:

....go in through the boot ? once you get the door open from the inside then it`s just a matter of repairing the door linkage that attaches to the handle * EDIT * did you get pm chris about the wheels / tyres ?

mine is reasonably standard and i like it that way personally, i know what you mean about all the " goodies " that look smart / cool that seems like a must have, if you give it a while this phase passes ( only to return again ), i reckon a well sorted corrado with subtle changes still looks good and will turn heads, there are some guys on here that have really pulled the rabbit out of the hat and created excellent cars (a20lee) but if like me you have a limited budget and the usual family outgoings then this is not really viable unless you want to lose your car to the garage for the next god knows years, at the end of the day the choice is yours....i`d rather be driving as often as possible, my own corrado is ass end up in the garage for repairs / restoration and thats been like that for the last 3 months...just cant find the time to finish off the old girl let alone customise to the high degree and standards some people do

no doubt that you`ll get all the advice you`ll ever need once you been able to give it a dose of looking at to give us a few clues to your problem :thumbleft:

.....did your cooling fan cut in at any time ?

it`s a right bastard when this sort of thing happens :bad-words: are you sure that the door is un repairable ? there are these plates that go around the door handle to cover up this sort of damage, i know they dont look that swish but it would do for now until you found the "perfect" door if you felt the need to replace

love the anglia 4 stud, nice to see them still about - modified or not :thumbleft:

bling, bling,bling.........that chroming company must luv you....looks nice fella :thumbleft:

i couldnt bring myself to drive on to a site....especially not in a white one like wot i got :lol:

cheers fella, appreciate the comment, i just fancied something a bit different without all the spokes, i did have the choice to have 16 or 17 but was happy to stay with the original diameter....keeps the tyre prices down a bit if nothing else :)

:) standard brakes dont look that tasty, this is my way of covering up my puny std items and replacing it with something a bit more pleasant to look at :thumbleft:

well done bobert, i`m sure glad you got the head of mate, just got to put it all back now :lol:

you could replace the guts of the valve from one wheel to another for elimination purposes....just need a valve key and a few minutes

my grandad wasn`t too impressed with them tbh :)

i must admit to being well impressed with the bora tdi i got for the missus, capable of figures up to 60 mpg apparently, best i`ve got so far is 55 mpg and that was on a run at 70 to 80 mph, what sort of yearage are you looking at for a tdi ?

....not fancy walesy`s little goof :)

that stupid sod on the 5th one, gotta be a pair of broken legs i would have thought :shock:

thats a bit tight fella, low enough for ants to limbo under i reckon, have you managed to damage anything yet ?

........or tracking,tyre pressures will have an effect, have you kerbed it at all fella ?

hello skybarg60 and welcome to the forum, sounds like you have an expensive hobby with 2 x modified motors :)

not just me then, i had no end of problems with this crowd letting me down with their own special blend of numptiness :x

at least you got her sorted out

looks like a nice motor for the lucky punter, i didnt realise you were selling a goof...i was just looking at a few mk2`s the last few days as a runaround whilst i was putting my corrado back together, would have looked good sat next to my white corrado...never mind...i shall carry on hunting

hello fella, if audi said what you are saying then i would have thought there would be a grain of truth in it, i cant see why they would mis inform you deliberately, i`d really try another audi dealer / specialist to find a way around the problem you are having - there is probaly a fix somewhere so you can use the head unit of your choice, sorry i havent been much help but i think you already knew the answers and just needed someone to confirm them for you
