If only they could talk... I'm forced to sleep under the covers all winter. Last month a plank fell over on me and he didn't notice the bruise for a week. There's a 3.68 final drive in the corner but heaven knows when he'll let me try it. I may be middle aged but I've got less creases than him.

Start from the back, remove the plastic cover trim (will be easier with the boot up) and then it should be obvious I think - just a bit of gentle levering working towards the front. Its a tight fit so although there was some sticky tape underneath it really does not need it.

Mic - Nice! I like the way you turn right out of D&G to get the maximum sprint distance before the dreaded speed bumps. Jake - Mic let me have a go in this when I was up last year - its very driveable with really smooth power delivery. If you do go 24v you'll have a lot of fun.

Bad luck Jake. That must have been quite a blow so soon after getting it. Good on you for looking beyond it though.

THE Corrado Forum 2.0 FEEDBACK THREAD

Looks good to me - some of the new features sound cool. I like change, keeps us on our toes. Can't imagine it was easy so well done! I did like the "View Your Posts" function on the old forum though - was a quick way of getting to see activity in areas of interest especially if you've not logged on for few days or not subscribed. -
Great stuff Charlie. You don't let problems stand in your way do you! Look forward to seeing you both at Stonor.

Hi and welcome :D Gets some pics up Quite a few of us around these parts - keep your eyes peeled in the events section for meets in the summer (sometimes join up with a bunch from the Midlands/Worcester) Vaughan

The Kings Speech 93/100 - captivating from start to finish, Peerless acting from Firth and Rush who occupy the screen for almost all the film. Very simple story but brilliantly told.
-
Looks a real cracker Jake. No more excuses on our little pootles now :D Has it go a BMC? - that'll increase the grin factor even more :nuts: Looking forward to seeing it.
-
Sounds (and looks) like a great find 8) Maybe a keeper this time? Look forward to seeing it in the flesh Cleaned out the petrol flap area yet?
-
Green Hornet 15/100 - never got into it at all. Drifted all over the place with no sense of purpose. Worst film I've seen for ages :(
-
Crazy Heart 87/100. Jeff Bridges is just brilliant in the role (and no surprise he got an oscar for it) . A vey simple and slowly told story really with characters who are so believeable (Maggie Gylenhaal is also great - has she ever been in a bad movie?) . Can't imagine anyone being a better lead for this than JB - one of those "made for it" type fits. I may be a tad biased though cos he's my favourite actor! Favourite quote: "where do ya get the inspiration for the songs" "Life, unfortunately"

Any more changes to my posts will be a Cazzatrofy for the pun -
Yep I've heard that said too but can only speak from experience and say I've not had the slightest issue since getting mine fitted at D&G last year. which ones have you had replaced..?[/quote:prp0ijaj] Pretty sure its just the front and gear box ones and like Jon they are the fast road variety - think thats what they were called?

I don't think its the forum and I don't think you are going mad cos that would imply you were once sane :lol:

Nice one Jake. Count me in too. Not made any plans for the Easter Monday yet so this is first in line :) Chilli from Ma Swompy again 8) -
That's bad luck Jim. My boys always laugh at me for parking the C in the furthest corner of any car park we go to - not always possible to find an empty corner though :( Maybe worth politely asking the owner for an unofficial "contribution" to repairs - assuming he gets in touch with you or you can find him again

Favourite Thread: Carl's down and out and then up and in thread :norty: Best Show: Bristol Volksfest - Brilliant weather, good turn out and a really chilled atmosphere Favourite cars: C5 OEM's Storm - thought he's lost the love at one point but went at it with a vengeance thereafter and produced something really stunning Crazy D's VRT (especially as he threw me the keys one day :) ) Chazrad's VRT - 2 cracking new additions in one year :wink: A least a dozen others too! Best Garage: D&G despite getting a speeding ticket on the way up :wink:

Can I have your job

Double portion of pies too:-) is that the new lighting loom? Have a good Xmas chaps

Tron Legend 3D - 7/10 Stunning visuals, especially in the fights and grid racing sections. The program destroying frisbees are just great. Let down by a leaden story line and script imo. The last 3rd of the film was a bit tame

Good to see you chaps yesterday. Carousel was fun - I have an image of Eric spurring his mare on that will live with me for some time :lol: Thanks to Eric for organisising and especialliy for bringing the Gluh Wein additive!, this may be related to Jim needing to hand over the keys to the VR6 :wink:
