:lol: nice find ']['H3£$R4P^%OR!

top your oil up then! ;)

so it does nowt? ffs!

The standard system performs very well, although it's a bit on the expensive side from the dealers. Its been discussed a few times on here and I think the general consensus was that theres no major power gains to be had with an aftermarket system, just cosmetics and burble. For the price of a standard system from VW you can get something bespoke, and that would also allow you to get a cat by-pass (make sure you keep the cat section for mot time ;)) which'll give you a bit more grunt. if you DO go to powerflow be very carefull, theres been some real horror stories about terrible welding and workmanship.

surly the next logical step in your supercharging adventures Paul? edit - the oversized...er...snorkle thingy, not the capri! I feel a photoshop coming on...

sure is, you can tell by the fact the bonnets up...again

about flippin time! still, if you'd started a members gallery when you first joined the site it'd have more 'new car!' posts than you could shake a oily con-rod at. Looks well nice on those TT comps, it'd look harder than sudoku with the headlight protectors back on ;)

I'm not entirely sure why it's illegal, the same rule applies in germany though.

heheheh your girlfriends swedish? :norty:

nice to swedish are progressing the scene, rat-style is out, tat-style is in!

I've seen them the other way around, not that thats much help! might be a custom job if someone like H&R dont do them

the first, and probably last time someone asks a question about corrados no one knows a definative answer to!

as I said before "oh my..."

good news mate! get her fixed up and back on the road

ssh! don't tell everyone, they'll hang me for treason!

Overtake, unless I'm in the missus 206 in which case its NEVER safe to overtake, its only just safe to pull out of a junction with the only other car on your side of the road half a mile away doing 30 :?

I'm sorry, but this comes down to Mr 911 being a w**ker. I would guess, in a 911 with other cars doing around 30 he'd spend about 10-15 seconds pulling out, overtaking and returning to the correct side of the road when dealing with ONE car, that figure wouldnt quite be multiplied by 4 for four cars, but I reckon he wouldnt be far off spending 25 seconds on the wrong side of the road, depending how far appart the cars were and if he broke the speed limit or not. That length of time on the wrong side of the road around country lanes where visiblity is poor is just plain dangerous driving. Add to the mix the fact that the guy right behind the slow moving car might have chosen to try and overtake at the same time (and doubtless wouldnt be expecting another car to be making the same move) and you can see just how stupid this kind of thing is. Just because you have a powerful car doesnt give you the right to flaunt road safty. I think the fact that you had to pull up and stop to let him get back in without a colision is evidence enough of his w**keryness. For the question posed: Yes, overtake people when its safe to do so, 'safe' being a term thats defined by the conditions, not simply by the fact that you have a fast car which you think will get you out of sticky situations simply by being fast.

it looks ALOT like an A3, in fact if you took the VW badge off and asked me to guess which it was, I'd get it wrong. Probability says it wont look like that once its finalised anyway.

I like everything but the paintjob, its original granted, the unratty rat look isnt something i've seen before but I dunno, theres something I dont like about the faux-rust effect with a bling finish to it. Everything else about it rocks harder than a rocking horse with an elvis quiff though.

I'm fairly certain my valver had a diagnostic port under the gearstick suround though, and I dont recall seeing a VAG-COM connector in that shape? it almost looks like a old school audio plug thingy!

controversial! I like everything about that, doors included, which is a first for me and lambo doors, that just seems to carry it off somehow. loving the door handles too, anyone know what they are?

nice wheels, although the arches look too extended IMO, like the dark headlights, interior looks good but not really feeling any of the rest of it. flip paint is nasty on any car (yes, even tvr's) and that bonnet scoop/hole/gash is just rubbish, functional yes, but lacking in style.

yup i could, not boost though obviously since it was a valver. Different technique to getting the 2nd mode than you use on a VR but its still there.

woah! actually I think i'd have been worshipping the caddy-god too!

i like it, but i cnt quite get my head around it having no wing mirrors
