  1. Saw a similar post on E38 forum and thought it would be interesting to see some pics of our favourite C's. Enjoy :) This one has made me want to get some schmidts for mine, anyone want to buy my D90s? :D climatronic wiring-Golf from May 01.pdfblack-cora.jpg[/attachment:123oqglf] The UPS rado 2.8l 24v Climatronic system.pdfbrownupscorrado8qg.jpg[/attachment:123oqglf] And the piece d'resistance sukhaaa.jpg[/attachment:123oqglf] Any of these C's belong to forum members?
  2. Just finished giving them a coat of Meguiars Metal Polysh, damn it took ages!!! They're looking really nice now though. Gonna go take some pics, will try get them up tonight if I can. :)
  3. Just posted this on E38, thought I would share it with you guys too. I contacted Strictly Dubs on 23rd June 2007 as I was trying to get hold of some 288mm calipers for my Corrado VR6. I was pleased to find that Strictly Dubs replied quickly and said that they might have some tucked away somewhere. Anyway, a few days later we agreed a price of £110 for front and rear 288mm calipers and carriers, and my cheque was posted. Now I understand that the cheque would have tave taken a few days to arrive, plus 4 or 5 days to clear but on July 11th, I had still received nothing. I contacted SD who told me that the parcel had been posted and would be with me the following day. 5 days later and nothing had arrived, so I sent SD another email and on the 19th July, low and behold, I was informed by SD that 'your parcel will be with you tomorrow.' 20th July 2007, my parcel finally arrived. But... suprise suprise, I only received one set of calipers, as oppose to the two sets I had paid for. A few emails later and SD were asking for the tracker number from the parcel (shouldnt they already have had this!?). I sent it to them and waited... August 17th 2007, SD email me to tell me that they are still chasing the courier company. I suggest that I just send them back the calipers I have received and they can just give me a refund. They dont seem so keen on this and suggest I just keep hold of the calipers until the couriers get in touch. September 27th 2007, 3 months since I sent SD my £110, and I eventually get reply to my emails. ''Hi Jamie, we are having no luck with the courier, i will ring them one last time today, if nothing then we'll send half back. Si'' So I left it a few days before I got back in touch. October 15th 2007, I receive this email. 'We'll have to send a cheque now mate as cant get any joy out of dhl, will sort it out in next couple of days. Si.' They haven't replied to any of my emails since, and Ive not received a penny. Now I understand that the postal service was in a bit of a tangle this summer, and yes, my cheque could have taken longer than expected to arrive with SD. And yes, some honest John at DHL may have decided to help himself to half of my parcel. But, Ive tried to be as accommadating as I can to the fact that the lads at SD must be dealing with a fairly large amount of orders and they might be very busy. I've been trying to sort this out for over 5 months now, I even said I'd settle for half of my money back and keep the 2 calipers I received it that would make it easier. It looks like I'll just have to accept that Im not going to see my £55 and that I've been ripped off. So thankyou very much Strictly Dubs. A credit to the VW scene. Jamie
  4. Just picked up my D90s from Marcus and they are now looking luurvley! Ill get some pics up later. Cant recommend this guy enough, cheap as chips and a fantastic quality service! :D

  9. £800... harsh I know, but im only 21 with 1 years NCB so not bad for a VR :?
  10. i have indeed tried contacting him... without response. :(
  11. Ive got to replace all the dashboard wiring due to an electrical fire which has torched everything :( g-dub has offered my a full loom (inc engine loom) from his G60, will this fit in the VR or are VR looms different to G60 and valvers? Thanks in advance.

  14. look at this tenuous link :) http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=62406
  15. at least we can put porsche bits on our Cs without people complaining :D
  16. Dont think that would look too good, I think white paints are at their best when they have a deep gloss. A dark satin would probably look best, I'd get it black personally...
  17. id go for it mate, think it would look good!
