  1. As per the title, does anybody have a spare Speedline alloy wheel they'd be willing to part with? Postage to Devon, unless it's close enough to collect! First post in goodness knows how long. It's good to be back!
  2. For what it is worth, that's one of the nicest Rados I've seen. Love it mate.
  3. Maybe give Matt at Volkscraft a call. He's in Exeter and is undoubtedly the most honest and thorough mechanic I've ever dealt with. :salute: http://www.volkscraft.com/
  4. If someone was interested in the AWK element, they could pick up anything from G1 to G20 from the DVLA for £499. The G60 is of obvious attraction for the Dub crowd, so I'd say anything up to £500 is realistic. Dealers will always push the price up to tempt you into listing it with them.
  5. Yep - Adrian Flux seem very good to me. Had the Rado on limited mileage discount, but switched to off road cover last month. Got a refund on the policy, so can't say exactly how much it costs, but is somewhere around the £100 mark. Going to insure the Passat with them also. Everytime I call, they are courteous, knowledgeable and based in the UK. Top job.
  6. May be totally fine, but if you look in the information that eBay self completes, the registration mark is down as an 02 plate?! eBay automatically disguises it, but when you click on the link it states that the DVLA has no recollection of the mark. Again, may be an honest mistake, but probably worth doing an HPI check if you haven't already.
  7. Is on sale tomorrow. Front page is the new Scirocco and they feature the Corrado and MK1 Scirocco. Might be worth checking out. Sorry if this has been posted before.
  8. Good to have Sunday nights back to normal. No doubt Clarkson will be blamed when the first petrol tanker is stolen! I was fortunate enough to see it being filmed back in 2005. Was fantastic. The whole thing is done in about five hours, depending on how many takes it takes (if that makes sense!). After each segment, there's a mass brawl to get to the front behind the presenters. Girls (and blokes) were literally reapplying their make-up between each scene in case they got noticed. I was just happy to mingle round the back and check out the cars. Good day out - they should bring out an 'un-cut' version as some of the unbroadcastable jokes/comments are very close to the mark. Happy Days.

    Well done that man! Looks a treat. What number is it? The early ones came with LSD. Enjoy!

    Bring it on! You'll love it! If you stumble across #351, let me know. I was the second owner of this. Really tempted to get one again myself, but am veerint towards an Integra Type-R next time. Good luck in your search for an FRP.
  11. B3081 - Shaftesbury to Wimborne (as already mentioned) - such a great road for so many reasons. B3306 - St Ives to St Just (Cornwall) - early morning before the tourists - a wonderful experience. A272 - Winchester to Haywards Heath - especially the wooded section and tunnel! B3157 - Weymouth to West Bay - especially the bit coming into Burton Bradstock. B3274(?) - old A30 near Roche (Cornwall) to Tregonehta - now liberated thanks to new A30 and tourists being re-routed. A15 - Sleaford to Bourne in Lincolnshire B4494 - Newbury to Wantage - love it! Plus the Klausenpass and Grossglockerpass - but not sure if they count?!

    Yes and I think BMW bought five when they were tweaking the dynamics for the new MINI.
  13. Now is not the time to sell anything remotely powerful or interesting. The market is extremely low and it is a definite buyer's market. I'm in the same position. Umming and arrring about whether to sell the Passat workhorse or cherished Corrado. Corrado wins everytime! :D
  14. Welcome back to the fold! Great choice of colour...! :notworthy: I actually quite like the wheels...
