I loved the old megane with wrap around rear window - great design and like nothing else on the road........I'm affraid I completely disagree with the new one - horribly en vogue features that does nothing to move the game on :|

Pretty sure thats the GTO......pretty special indeed. EDIT : 599 GTO as opposed to 'standard' 599 GTB

Thanks :)

ooohh yes......it pi$$ me write off :bad-words: To be honest I can kind of see it from both sides as when I'm in a rush there is nothing more annoying that sitting behind a Sunday driver, on the other hand I dont vent my anger by driving write up their back side !!

Just dawned on me that you have a early interior.......I take it all the campaigns are like this with late exterior ?

In short NO......I have never had a good experience with a garage round here so I did as Ben said and went down to The Phirm. Bit of a trek for service and MOT but I just take the day off work and have a day out looking at nice VW's. Do it, they are worth the drive !!

I thought EVO gave this a really good review recently :scratch: Dont mind it myself, some interesting features but a bit O'TT' :norty:

Interesting thanks mate......might contemplate changing mine soon as my engine seems to bulk quite a lot.

I had my engine mounts changed last year and went for standard ones instead of the Vibra Technics ........what kind of improvements would I have seen with the Vibra ones then KIP :scratch: ?? Hope this doesnt clog your thread up too much C5 OEM :?

:lol: plus one !! Jim get a daily you dont care about mate, ever since 'we' bought a Polo parking in car parks has become much easier.

Agree with this, or for peace of mind I would probably ask him to negotiate on price and get them done yourself when/if you buy it.....if he is genuine then he can reduce the car by the amount that it would cost him to do the chains.

This is precisely my problem, I keep bloody watching this crap - I should just turn the channel over and stop complaining about it..... :brickwall: :lol:

At the moment £5k is VERY top dollar......there have been a number of very good examples on here recently for less than that. I agree that they are never going to be worth a lot in the future like for example a Lancia Delta Intergrale is from the same era, but 'most' of 'us' have accepted this now I think and 'most' of 'us' dont have one for this reason I think !! They are however, a great drivers car with very predictable handling. At the end of the day they are very much showing their age now but I'm sure you will never regret buying one as its the type of car that makes you feel better for driving which I think is something quite difficult to replicate in this price bracket. In short a Corrado will make you feel that bit more special than anything else on the road and I think this is summed up nicely as I have had at least 3 people stop me in the last year and ask if I would sell myn to them - wont get that in a civic type R :D

Yeah my miss' has got one of those - she thinks its retro cool, I think its crap :lol: - but to be honest it works perfectly well if sound quality isnt top of the list and its an easy cheap stop gap for you. Admitedly pointless if you havent got tape deck :|

Good Thread....... 1) Best Egg on Toast - very handy hints. 2) Pass, dont go to shows :( 3) Kevhaywires : intense engineering, intense knowledge, intensly annoyingly good ........ C5 OEM : love the bay and the 'standardness' ........ Coullstar : just when I was starting to love those wheels .......... 4) The Phirm : even better now I dont need my wellies !!

Looking back over the pictures I'm sure some are photoshopped :scratch: and thats what I thought when I first saw it !!

Thats what I was thinking......maybe he was lost for words while soiling his pants at the same time :)

:lol: ridiculous !!

.... :lol: me to Ben !!

Got mine today Alex......thanks for all the work, legend :clap: !!

:lol: no pressure Alex !!

nothing here mate either.

completely forgot about this, didnt recieve myn.....damm what am I gonna get the old man for xmas now !!

I get the feeling that once you start you cant stop ........ which is why I keep telling myself not to start - It might also be something to do with the minus temps outside :lol:

Agreed and aren't they fake as well :scratch: Does nothing for me this car but then again I have never had the chance to spend the weekend with one :)
