Hmm, well I have had 2 head gaskets go. And they run at a very high temperature. However, the proof of the pudding is that the V6 is still being used in Volkswagens whereas Rover and all its affiliates are dead and buried.
-
Well I did lead it for nearly all the season so I would have been pretty annoyed if I had lost, but it did get a bit close at the end. You won last year and I came second, a reversal of this year, so next season we shall see who shall be crowned champion.

It seems like the polarising filter is the key. Have you turned it over?
-
Good season. I thought most of the races were pretty good and a bunch of different winners kept it interesting. And I ended winning the Fantasy league too. Get in there!

I actually found last winter that the faster I went the colder my oil got. I do remember one trip where I had to keep slowing down to 60-70 mph to let it heat up again! Normally it'd be around 90ish degrees. Blocking it off you'd have to use something that doesn't melt obviously and yeah they do corrode like a corroding thing. Mine lasted just under 2 years sat in the wheel well. Tried to get the hose off and the whole fitting snapped clean off :(

Me likey even if the rear does look like a bit of cheese.

Legend. :notworthy: Keep the Helios, for once it is actually one of those 'rare' colours for a Corrado. Nice to see it with a nice interior too :wink: Carry on dude. :salute:
-
I was searching for something a while back and came across a really old post of yours saying that you wanted to keep it pretty standard. How did that work out in the end? :lol:
-
Jackass 3D. 5/10 They really have run out of material now. However the bit with the midgets was absolutely hysterical, I very nearly fell out of my chair I was laughing so much.
-
I want your garage. But why with all that space, did you park so close to the wall? :lol:
-
Good pics... Now get the bugger printed!
-
check out http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewforum.php?f=18 shedloads of photos there, most even voted for! obviously you'd want those that are still members. I'd deffo be up for buying one.

Went to see The Cat Empire on Saturday. I still can't make my mind up about this band. Some of it I really dig, but some is just generic and dull. They had an odd setlist, lots of slower songs mixing in with upbeat ones. It meant the vibe lurched about a lot and there was no structure to the gig. The last song was killer tho, especially when they segued into the green hornet theme. Check out: The Car Song Days Like These Hello The Wine Song for good uplifiting tunes

ah no, probably not then. i just remember them being for sale, i didn't know he had sold them.

You can get mechanical boost gauges that don't need to be wired up (unless you want them to light at night, in which case you tap into the ciggy lighter iirc), just follow JMC's directions and the jobs a good'un. (I have a Revotec one btw)
-
I dunno, but dukest has a set with R888s on...or he did have as they were up for sell a while back.
-
That is so blatantly a Corrado! I'm sure they'll change the front anyway like they did with the Iroc concept.
-
I think this may be last chance saloon for Webber, I don't think they'll be so dominant next year now everyone knows about the flexible wings and floorplan. Aren't they changing engine supplier too?
-
I too want Webber to win, but he might have just handed it to Alonso, the damn fool. I don't really care about Vettel or Lewis and Button is pants when all's said and done. Legard didn't start off too bad this year, its only as the season has gone on that he's got more Murray-esque. Its odd for me because his surname almost sounds like mine and makes me smile every time I hear it. Does anyone watch the forum after the race? I think its great and you get some good insights into the drivers and teams as they come and chat in a more informal style.
-
Red 8/10. John Malkovich is great in this flick, he's a complete loon!
-
loose/faulty MAF?
-
They're the new angel eyes, imo cars that are not designed for them look poo. Its all a bit Ripspeed for my liking, bling and tat on an older car.
-
Spare fuses. Oil and coolant. Cold hard cash for any on the spot speeding fines. Room in the boot for cheap beer to bring home. Also check the fuel situation in France, I hear they have been having a spot of bother recently :) (If you can afford it... spare battery or charger pack...or at the very least jump leads! spare sparks and leads)
-
So are you the f*cker who tried to bill me 1300 quid for a meter that wasn't mine? Or are you the b*stard who took a year to finally rectify it? :censored: (no offence meant Gaz, you're a top bloke, but npower are utterly useless w*nkers)
