  1. big watch fan myself tbh... in the watch locker at the moment.. nixon - 'the boss' nixon - 'rotolog' nixon - 'rover' nixon - 'district' animal - '029 w284' casio - 'a158wa' a random nautica watch i bought in the states 9 years ago, and my two most recent purchases: AB Art - 'oc150' AB Art - 'o104' both with matching stainless steel straps :) nothing hugely expenisve in there but am hoping to treat myself to a Rado integral later this year.
  2. thanks andy, ill be honest i let it get into a bit of a state and ive still got a lot of cleaning to do but it'll get there!
  3. cheers dude, shame your selling the vr..
  4. as title then, ive finally found some motivation and love for the alpine again, it got its first wash and run yesterday for a v v long time. started on the button and smooth as a babys bum. im going to finish it off and maybe change a few things in the new year, ive still got a huge to do list from the engine rebuild so i need to get cracking with that. ive been asked a few times by various people local to me if i would sell it and tbh i just cant, this is going to stay and be enjoyed again. i also keep looking at a particular vr thats for sale...maybe the audi will make way. will get some pics up once ive finished polishing etc.. feeling the love! peace.
  5. well yesterday... cleaned the c for the first time in 7 months, started on the button too!
  6. v keen for the rear refurbed calipers, are you anywhere near a gsf branch?
  7. cheers for setting this up, could i get a rear vw badge (black) and a number plate trim please cheers, andy
  8. change colour of wheels and differnt tyres, re-spray,audio, engine....:)
  9. funnily enough its not a money thing at all, it just really pains me to see it sat there not doing anything, im uber busy with work and with the winter pretty much here i should do something with it soon. hadnt really thought about storage tbh, looked for a garage for ages for somewhere to keep it but nothing ever came to fruition :(
  10. well as title then its been some serious thought but sadly the alpine hasnt been used in months and it seems a waste for it to just be sat on the driveway doing nothing, ive covered lees then 1k miles since i rebuilt the engine..the front end has been painted again and i havent used it since i picked it up from the bodyshop :( almost 6 months ago. id love it to go complete but these cars espiecially valvers dont sell for anywhere near what they are worth in parts, just trying to generate some interest in the bits and bobs and ill go from there. real shame tbh but seems the only option.

    Recaro fit help

    they're completely differnt chap, as mentioned earlier seat base's are different, the upper part of the seat is a lot narrower then the corrado recaro's and iirc do ont have the height adjustment that the corrado ones have.you would indeed need modified subframes for them to fit into a corrado. sorry if that sounds negative but those are the reasons why corrado recaro's are expensive. ive seen plenty of corrado's and mk2 golfs with the ford recaros fitted so it can easily be done with the right know how. hth
  12. bump for revised price...valver may be for sale shortly too...:(
  13. should of thought of that sooner, cheers wendy. http://the-corrado.net/classifieds.php?do=viewitem&itemid=339 hefty price drop, dont have the space to keep this any longer.
  14. bump, still need a home for the vr..
  15. so had the new car for a while now and already done more miles in it in 2 months then i did in the valver in 6 months! hasnt missed a beat, its comfortable and v smooth....for all those that are wondering heres what i bought.... this isnt my car as i havent taken any pictures as yet, mine is identical to this. only plan on having this a year and onto something else next year.. as for the corrado's... vr6 is still for sale and i havent had one bit of interest which is gutting..great car and soo much car for the money imo..it will sell eventually i geuss. have decided to mot tax and re-insure the valver next month as have missed driving it..its had a fresh coat of paint on the front end and a few paint runs have been buffed out..shame the body shop didnt take so much care of the interior..whole interior will have to come out for a full clean..paint dust everywhere! have slowly started stripping the rm's ready to polish the dish's..they sat on the car thru winter when i ruptured the achilles so need a tidy up thought they will also be sold. missed the valver but its still there and isnt going anywhere..someone buy the vr tho..folks are getting fed up with it on there drive and i dont have space for 3 cars at mine!
