Rado k

Yeah definately don't worry about it. If i had the cash i would buy it. Be cool to have another Rado especialy with that mileage. It would almost be like Top Trumps " Mileage 124,000" " Ha Ha mileage 200,000, hand it over big boy"!! :D

Yeah have to agree. Does seem appealing to have a car with 500BHP but you have to remember the resposibilty that you have driving it. The video attached really brings it home when you see how far away the embankment is from where the car landed. I have had one or two fortunate near misses in my past and this just makes me even more aware of just how it can all go so easily wrong. :(

If Eurodubber isn't interested the i might have them off you!

"The car is mint inside and out" What you mean apart from the seats being a bit ripped. Or prehaps it's the " No expense spared" bit with his "Full Rage exhaust!" Can someone sticky this so when i'm feeling down i've got something to make me laugh. Least he's being modest with the BHP figures, i mean 450 + 205 is 655 but maybe that sounded a bit unrealistic, better make it 600? RAFLMAO

Mic_VR check your PM's. Might be able to help.

Bottom one for me but that's just the style i like. Obviously practicallity has to come in to it so maybe a compromise on the drop but deffo the bottom pic.

To be honest i would rather have your Nugget G60 Andy. It looks awesome in that colour :)

Getting my windscreen replaced :( Tomorrow i tackle the timing chains!!

What a tool!!! If you ever needed a visual aid for what not to do to your car, that was it! What's the deal with that bumper, is he trying to be "Mr Plow" from "The Simpsons"??? There are some people out there who really shouldn't be allowed out unsupervised!

Ah i see. Yeah i've heard of him can't think where or why though!

Yep bingo. Who do you work for then Andy?? Yeah it's not a bad place to work but if i didn't work there i woudn't take my car there, not at £75 + VAT per hour! Some of the bills i've seen there :shocked!:

VW Giraffe then maybe!!! Andy665 - I work for VW in Cambridge.

My mates had one similar to Jims where this guy was sitting right on his bumper so my mate just gave him the customary finger and the guy went nuts. Now considering his girlfriend was driving this guy was still trying to climb out of the drivers window bouncing around like mad! Eventually he passed my mate and gave him a shall we say an unpleasent gesture so when my mate overtook him he returned the gesture and this guy lost it, bouncing around trying to get out the car while it was moving, he was going proper nuts, hammering at the windows. I've never laughed so much when he told me!!

Lol yeah. We've got a Yellow one with the bodykit and alloys and i have to say it looks quite smart. Think i've worked on them for too long and just seen there bad points! There's just something about an older VW that makes me smile that i just don't get with the new stock.

Have to say i don't know about the Aygo and the others but Fox i see a few of. If your in the market for something like that then fair enough but i wouldn't have one even if i was given it. Sorry to go off on one.

Nooooooo the Fox is an awful car. It's built out of plastic and not very good plastic at that. All the ones i have seen have had bits falling off them or just missing altogether! VW Quality Control is not what it used to be.

I had an L reg Celica GT4 before this and while it was alot quicker then the VR it's day and night when it comes to driving them. The VR just feels so much better but maybe thats just because i've always wanted one!! Make sure if you get a GT4 you check that the lower arms have been replaced because at £300 a side it can get expensive, plus the Big End Bearings gave out on mine. At the end of the day a car is only as good as how much you enjoy it, because it could 400 bhp but if you don't enjoy it's all for nothing.

Left my car outside my friends shop while i took his car for an MOT. When i got back to his, apparantly some bloke walks in off the street just to ask him about it. I love my corrado! :D

No only the inners will be on when main beam is on due to Corrado's having set up for a twin filament H4 bulb and these using a H7 bulb. This is the same as mine, haven't had to time to work out the wiring to rectify this.

Quick pic of mine in progress

The standard VW units need 2 permanent feeds and 1 "S" contact or Switched feed. if you have it wired up correctly when you switch it on it should say "SAFE" then change to "1000". This is when you enter your code using the preset 1 button on the radio to change the first number, the no. 2 preset button to change the second number and so on. When you have done this push and hold the foward search button and it should then say "learn". If it says "SAFE" still and a "1" in the corner the code is wrong and you get 1 more go before the radio locks up. Let me know how you get on because i can possibly get you the code for it. Kevin

I have to say number 1. Only because they look different from everyone else and they suit the car just aswell as the Keskins. At the end of the day it's which ones you prefer. Be handy if you could place a wheel against the car.

Oh yeah i see it now. This is a pain in the arse trying to get the right wheels for the colour and shape of the car. The AG's don't look as good as the proper split rims so i guess it's the Platin P16's or save for the ZW5's. Haven't even picked up the car yet!! Roll on Saturday.

Is there any real difference. Just having a look on http://www.wheelmachine.de and they both look the same to me, but i could be wrong!!

Are yours the ZW5 ones OSV?
