Yeah, got that one on the first day! :) They never heard of Tufty or the Green Cross Code Man here :) Between the pedestrians, random cars pulling out from the right, folk changing lanes without indicating and all the damn potholes on the roads I have to drive like a granny everywhere I go! AND petrol is more expensive here than in the UK. Yes, you heard that right MORE expensive! Beer's cheap though! :drinking: I just filled up at 134.9. Well, when I say filled up, I put in 10 litres cos that's all I needed and could afford. Belgium sounds nuts, I thought they were meant to be on the level? edit - why not go one ebay and pick up some euro headlights and swap them over?

The individuality of a deranged mentalist? :lol: Ha! Suffer. :shocked!: Thats the sad part, its only going to be a 318 at best. I seem to remember the corsa with a different front bumper though, bit more jap stylee and smashed at the bottom from speed bumps. The first time I encountered it on the road I nearly crashed due to laughing too much and he nearly crashed into the central divider as he was coming far too fast round a 180 hairpin. :lol: :lol:

The only problem I have is the water emissions. Ok, so its good for the environment, but if you have the same amount of hydrogen cars on the road as you do now, there's going to be floods at worst, big old puddles and lots of skidding and accidents at best. The roads will always be wet. N'est-ce pas?

Here ya go.

Yeah! :luvlove: :luvlove: :luvlove: Don't worry Trav, it'll be on Youtube or some other website pretty soon after. -
You need a bigger hammer.

I live in Crystal Palace so I'm always in the area!
-
Didn't know you were in the area. You should tell him to keep it in a garage then for the sake of the paintwork. No, its not my thing at all. I know its probably mostly a show car but there's modifying cars and then there's making them look silly. :cuckoo: I take it you knew the Corsa then? Though I am intrigued by the interior, I didn't really look properly.
-
You should have seen the Corsaaargh he had before. It had a raised bit on the bonnet which followed onto the roof and split down the rear screen onto the boot and down to a ludicrous bumper. Oh, and it was painted a dull slime green too. :lol:

Just dropped a friend home and spotted this monstrosity lurking in the housing estate behind Ikea. She said its been in magazines and hasn't moved in a few months. The thing that gets me is that there is a huge speed bump to get into the estate, my car barely clears it, so maybe this is the reason it hasn't moved.
-
Yeah, and one stone at motorway speeds and you have a nice tear in the front which will probably get worse as the wind flaps it about. Goodbye wallet! However it is a thing of beauty and visionary thinking.
-
Not added up all the receipts have you? Always a bad move. :ignore: Or is it the MPG?
-
Its why I never put in more than 50 quid, but its shocking how little the needle goes up. I used to think that carting all that extra weight around was a waste of money, but at the rate that petrol has been going up recently I may just have to brim the tank. Blooming OPEC. :(

and (side) skirts are for girls, not cars!

Oh man, I so feel for you. Its not like they just walked past and keyed it, that's multiple vindictive passes. :( My red valver got vandalised/broken into 3 times in 5 months so I know what you must be going through. But... Sad drunkards or jealous types with nothing better to do, remember you are way above this frog spawn just by owning this don car.

Duuuuuude....... :clap:
-
Its a great shame that its finally dead, but on to bigger and better things. There's no replacement for displacement. :clap: edit - just realised i basically said the same as monkeyboy above. oh well, must be time for bed.

Had loads of people in the last few days asking me if I want to sell, to which the answer is, absolutely not. Was just filling up at the petrol station when some young guy comes up and says "nice car, my friend has one of the mk3 limited edition corrados" er...that'll be the storm then? :) I ask him what he has, a Corsa with a 2.0 in it. Very fast he says. Still just a Corsa I says. We both laugh, but he looks embarrassed!
-
Speaking of dodgy contacts, where's Toad when you need him?
-
Thanks Matt, have checked it out, however its not quite low enough. Plus I am starting to think they look a bit small coming from 18s, but I need a bit more cushioning on my new rock solid suspension. Any more for any more?
-
Sorry mate, speedies it is, though I do like your steelies a lot.
-
Bonjour. This is probably the most simple request ever, I just want a side on pic of a lowered rado on standard speedlines. Thats it. Nuff said.
-
:clap: :clap: :clap: Welcome home? And we all know red ones go faster.
-
I meant unbalanced but couldn't think of the word, no corrado is ever silly!
