  1. does that mean you work for a wheel refurber mate? any chance of Cforum discount? :wink: Not as such..Its just that we do have a powder coat plant for our products...Sorry but we can only do our own wheels :scratch: Not worth losing a job over :lol:
  2. Got to be powder coat mate :tongue: I done mine on the Punto. Got a set of coupe wheels and refurbished them in our 'Black Sparkle'..Powder coat is very tough, durable and easy to clean..Heres a before and after..
  3. Not sure what shade of white it is :? As for plans?? Well since its standard surely its best to keep it like that :shrug: Having said that and seeing other members cars I think it needs to go lower, a set of alloys would also be nice.. With regards to the engine I would not have a clue..I need to search the site to see what normal things are done.. MORE POWER PLEASE :lol: :lol: Would love to get a go in a VR just to see the differance.. My GT had the usual,,,,, induction kit, strut braces, lowered, dump valve etc etc..
  4. Welcome mate :D Yep those alloys look 8)
  5. Ok guys here it is. My cat 'D' 2.0l 8V..I did get hold of the seller today and he reckons he never knew :ignore: Mind you he did seem to know about the previous girlfriend/boyfriend having a little coming together.. Well at that is in the past and I have NOT let it put me off my little gem.. Here she is after a quick wash 'n' wax..Will do a better job come April for Action-day at my local track.
  6. Just got my Corrado yesterday..It came with a spare handle (????)which I will try to fit today..But looking at this thread it sounds like I too best have one of these kits..My problem is the drivers side door..I need to open it from the other side and then get in,, :lol: Great fun..So being a newbie can I still buy these? If so how much and who wants my money :salute:

    look at these

    I like em,,Would look great on a White Corrado :lol: :lol:
  8. Its a FIAT mate so they always need fixing :lol: I have just moved overed from a Punto after having Fiats (and the wife) for a few years..Sounds like just the gear linkage??If the engine is like my Punto (and the wife's Cinq) check that both cables are still in situ by the gearbox housing.If one has come off the ball joint thing then this may be the cause :)
  9. You peoples are so much more friendly than some on the Punto Forum I'm on. Mainly the adim/mods that is.. Ok YES the car is confirmed as a cat 'D' but the more I think about the happier I am,,strange I know..And tomorrow when I get my cleaning rags and polish out I will have a hugh smile on my face..Guess I will have to post pic up in the gallery section for you lot to assess I can hear it now :D Lower it... Got to fit a new drivers door handle. Have already done a search to see how..Found a few posts so should be an easy job..Same goes for the front spots..Splitter has been replaced so perhaps this could be the cat D part!!!
  10. God I hope its not :( Deal is done and I now have the car..My insurance company didn't flag any thing up on so hopefully the one i have is not the car in question... You guys have me a little concerned now :shock: Yep ok some peeps do a HPI check but all the cars I have owned (must be 30 odd) I have never done it :shrug: Anyway apart from that I am VERY IMPRESSED with it..Drove A1 back over the bridge with every thing working as is should. Got to sort the drivers side door handle out but one came with the car.. It was nice n clean until I drove it back on the M4 so tomorrow I will give is a hose down n polish and post a pic for you lot to see..
  11. Cheers mate..I will drive along with no hands :lol: :lol: hopefully the car will remain in a straight line...Will pay attention to those rear arches as well..
  12. Its White but thats ok cause I love cleaning my cars.....Car is in Wales about 15 miles over the bridge..
  13. Ok apart from the main things should I be looking out for any thing in particular? Right its not a G60 or VR spec but its a start.. I'm looking to buy a one owner 2.0l 8V on a 'M' plate..FSH with 12 months MOT, cars done 112k and is totally standard apart from a CD player..Even the active rear spoiler still works :clap:
  14. I like :clap: :clap: Not much room for any speed bumps tho :shock:
  15. Wow am I doing the right thing here in getting a Corrado :lol: :lol: Having just spent over 2k in 8 months on my Punto Gt I thought that was bad..Turning to German build I was hoping for more miles to the pound :clap: Well time will tell, I hope this is a good move,,haha
