  1. i wonder if you guys can help me. due to the fact that driving fast in a straight line is achievable by anybody, i like to drive round roundabouts quickly. however, there is one big roundabout in watford where i live; everytime i go round it at around 40mph (well within the speed limit) i hear a beeping noise from my dashboard. no lights flash or anything, and nothing happens to the car. it sounds exactly the same as the sound you get when your car is out of oil. does anybody know what it could be? any help would be appreciated. thanks
  2. ive got a set of rover coupe half leather seats and i know the fronts will go in by swapping the subframes but does anyone know if the backs can be adapted to fit? any help would be appreciated..
  3. hi the metering unit pipes on my KR need replacing and i was wondering if there is an aftermarket replacement at all? my mechanic talks about ram pipes but i cant find anything on here or google. thanks

  9. ive had my corrado for almost a month now and i had the timing belt changed on friday and since then ive problems with the car not starting. its trying to turn over and fuel is getting through but the car is not starting. it push starts with ease and once started it runs perfectly. occasionally it will start first time from cold, but mostly refuses to start at all. can somebody please help?
  10. thanks for the prompt response.
  11. hi can somebody please confirm for me whether a late spec rear bumper will fit my 1991 corrado? im supposed to be picking one up today but i just want to make sure it will fit. thanks

    ah i picked up the rado yesterday, and im in love already! its the best of both worlds, quiet cruiser most of the time but when u put your foot down, its a beast! this one's a H-Reg too, but 87K on the clock and mint condition. drives like a dream! and i saw a fellow rado owner on the way home, near stone henge.

    yep its a 1.8 16v, H-reg, in black. i went to see one today but done a Hpi and it showed the car had been stolen in the past so i was advised by a friend not to buy it. shame though, as the rest of it was perfect!
  14. hi im sorry this has probably been asked hundreds of time sbefore, but im pickin up my rado tomoro and i was wondering if i peel off the door strips, are there holes underneath or are they just glued on? thanks in advance
