For a fixer upper? Nah, I'm out.

Sell it. Cut your losses.

prices are going mental at the moment!

Nice job, looking forward to the pics

What kind of thing are you looking for? Colour/engine/spec etc? Modified or Original?

Oh dear lord, I think I'll reconsider going on this evidence.

They're just not that much of a cult car yet, so there are many owners who just aren't on the forums. There's at least 3 near me that I've spoken to that never knew there was an owners club and were just using the cars as a normal car nothing special.

Well sounds like you'll have time to be showing us all up again by progressing the car even further! Got any particular shows in mind? Always good to meet other members, put faces to names etc. I'm hoping to be at a few more myself this year.

Sounds like fun! I'm going to be doing all this myself soon and I must admit I'm a bit worried things aren't going to go smoothly. You back home for a while now then mate?

Welcome back! Another to return.... they do get under your skin.... Good luck on the hunt, if I see anything suitable I'll let you know.

I'd be interested in the to be built model

At some point I'm sure we'll end up moving back 'oop north! but probably Lancashire, Ribble valley I'd think.

Interesting to hear you moving completely away. Do you have any connections in England? I know my wife would love to move back up to Manchester but all our ties are here now so I don't think I could move to where we wouldn't know anyone one or have any connections. I'd recommend Cambridge as the city has plenty of great villages in the surrounding area, but you'd have to at least double your budget for all that round here I'm afraid. I've always liked the York area, very picturesque.

Happy new year mate, good to be back? Is the maf definitely working? Have you tried unplugging it whilst its running. If it has no effect then it would suggest it's had it. The k&n will flex a bit under load but if its deflecting a lot I would change it back to standard if you've got it still. How's the fuel? If its been in there a long time it may have gone bad and will create a load of symptoms of rough running. If you can drain the tank down, run some fresh fuel and cleaner through it that would be good

Happy New Year to one and all. Wishing every single one of you the absolute best in 2016! One of my resolutions for the new year is to actually make a decision and start work on my car. Hope you all have a fantastic evening this evening whatever your plans.

Merry Christmas one and all, and a happy new year! Look forward to seeing the array of corrado based gifts you all get, and catching up with lots of you next year.

Well I'll be coming from a Daytona 675 so 160bhp+ will be a jump for me. I'll give both a try though and let you know what I think. Roll on summer eh?!

Yeah I'm going to test a few. Must say the BMW wasn't really on my radar but I'll give it a try. I'm fairly keen on the triumph speed triple r which I tried last year. Never ridden a telelever equipped bike but heard good things. The reduced dive under braking I'm told is a little unnerving. Get some more pics up mate.

Both very nice machines. Is the 1300 telelever front end? How did you find it? I'm on the hunt for something but not sure what. Fancy the Ducati monster R.

Very nice. Is it replacing something?

Wow, 11 weeks! Looking fantastic and fast work

Nice wheels Jim. If I didn't have the AP's I'd be back on Speedlines by now..... oh well, you makes your choices etc etc

This is currently about where mine sit, thankfully, so I hope you're right. The other 2 pictures, and the 2nd one in particular, are massively dangerous. What have you got on the Golf these days, Kev?

IMO this kind of thing is only going to get worse. Aren't other European countries (France/Switzerland) already operating rules that ban a lot of modifications?

Interesting. Mine have a slight stretch but I don't think the bead is fitted incorrectly. To be honest, if mine failed an MOT on this I would have to sell both sets of wheels and get something else as I'd not be able to manufacturer spec wheels/tyres over my brakes. Lets hope it's not used as a stick to beat folks with only a slight stretch.
