Ok it is passenger! Sorry to keep you waiting..but let me eat first then i'll give it a clean and assess it ;) btw it is fromm a J plate 16v....not 100% of there are early/late differences in lights (someone can confirm?) Nick

I have a spare headlight with broken tabs in the garage, not sure of the reflector condition and i couldn't tell you now if it was the driver or passenger...will check in a sec for you though

http://www.cit-carparts.com/ shows what's available under "produkt"

Reversed into a parked cars indicator yesterday (it was raining heavily ok!). Luckily the other car wasn't damaged and the lady sitting in it let me off! Unfortunately my arch has a little scrape on it :( . I'm the worst at taking pictures by the way. Could have been a lot worse so i'm thankful that it is only just a small scratch! Touch up pen for now but I'll get it sorted properly soonish. http://www.zakparts.com supplied me with a genuine touch up pen, just search for your colourcode. £6.95 for the pen thing, £12.95 for 150ml spray. Not too bad eh! :norty: :norty:

:nuts: I'll lecture him on your behalf! :lol: In all fairness, back when it was fully set up and heavily planted it was was alright, but the summer just gone did cause a shed load of algae/blanket weed i must say!

Hoping to set my own tank up someday, my best mate is well into his fish and the hours I've spent hypnotised by the tanks is beyond sad! He used to have 2 stingrays before focusing more of his attention to marine. I've attached some pics for you fish lovers out there :nuts:

resurrection! Anyone got pics of a corrado with rota grid wheels? Cheers

Funny you should say that.... :grin: :norty:

You're not wasting any time are you! I'm glad to hear that another c is getting some love, car looks tidy but we'll need more pics! :D any more plans? Nick

Does your steering pump run off a separate belt? Had the same problem before with my old 1991 16v, I think there were 2 available, so just swapped it with the other variant! Sorry if that doesn't help :( VW Hydraulic oil should be fine

When making the change I refused to look at insurance quotes...nothing was going to stop me from getting a VR! Sold the valver, got the VR so by that time I had no choice but to cough up :D I changed cars mid policy, but only had to pay an admin fee as my 16v had a lot more mods than the VR!

Does the car now fire up fine before cutting out?

I may be wrong, but I'm not sure if there are adapters available which have both the M14 holes for the VW hub (in 5x100) and M12 holes for the merc? (5x112). I was close to getting some merc wheels a while back before the seller let me down...after scouring through various forums it seemed that drilling the alloys bolt holes out to 14 was the most common solution. Some used stud conversions like those in the link I sent you although I'm not sure which one you would go for. Local machine shop quoted me £10 per wheel, although it seems that some people just did it themselves with a drill bit :nuts: In a way I'm glad that the seller let me down...the wheels I ordered were 16x8J ET34 :shock: with the adapters it would have been painful :lol: The wheels in the pic look great though, if I were you I'd bite the bullet and get them holes opened up! Nick

wtf...is that car for real?! :cuckoo:

Very nice! But more importantly, what's the latest regarding the V8? :norty:

I think some merc wheels have different bolt hole sizes Anyway, could you use a stud conversion kit perhaps? Something like this? http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/Motorsport/Wheels_&_Tyres/Wheel_&_Tyre_Accessories/Grayston_Conversion_Stud/1789/5261 :shrug:

Good luck! You checked all wiring? Alternator?

Welcome! If you could share which clinic pack you got that would help me a lot ;) Nice car history, I'm sure the corrado won't disappoint. The noise alone is addictive :luvlove:

Love it! Boy that person can drive :shock:

Sweet...is that Irish Green?

Spun 180 degrees whilst moving at 20mph over an icy road...front tyres (toyo proxes) are quite worn so i'll put it down to those :norty:

Had chorizo & red leicester sandwiches for lunch...recommended!

No nearby access to a scanner, but these poorly taken camera phone pictures may whet your appetite until someone else comes along with the goods! ahem! :)

I think it's a great photo!

Hope this helps 8) Nick
